Hi everyone! I’m Jessica from Pen N’ Paper Flowers and I’m feeling LUCKY to be back here on SNAP! today. St. Patrick’s Day is just days away and this simple idea I’m sharing will have us all leprechaun-ready in no time. I wanted to create something that “whispered” St. Patty’s Day but would also be versatile for other occasions so I came up with this “Kiss Me” Banner inspired by the ever popular “Kiss Me…I’m Irish” sentiment. I focused specifically on adding pretty gold accents to it and I think it’s perfect for weddings, engagement photo shoots, Valentine’s Day, anniversary celebrations, an airport greeting for someone you love or maybe just a cute way to welcome your man home at the end of the day!? *wink*
Simply print out the FREE Printable Kiss Me Banner and trim the pieces to size using scissors. The panels have intentionally been designed with a simple black and white color palette allowing you the ability to add pops of color and other cute elements of your choosing to personalize it for your specific occasion.
I added some gold polka dots along the top of each panel using the eraser-end of a pencil and this gold stamp pad. I think the wispy gold yarn I used to string the banner together added an extra dimension of texture too.
I created some sparkly banner panels for both ends of the banner as well as to separate the words “kiss” and “me”.
Use the blank banner template(s) that come with the FREE Printable Kiss Me Banner and trace the template onto the backside of glittered card stock. Trim to size.
For those of you who are looking for more than just a “whisper” of St. Patty’s Day for your banner, you can easily create sparkly shamrock elements to add. Just use a heart-shaped paper punch and some green glittered card stock and glue them on.
You could even add more pops of green by creating green glittered banner panels to mix with the gold pieces.
Green with Gold or all Gold…either option is adorable! I can also see this made using a rainbow of colored polka dots too!
