Before we start our Banner feature we have a request for you!
Each month we pick a fabulous Reader's Find from our gallery...well we have a brand-new site and the gallery is not up and running yet...SO...if you have a stunning Prima-based project that you would love the world to see please send a photo (or two) to sharon@primamarketinginc.com. Please put November Newsletter Project in the subject. Thank you!

You know the banner trend is a whole lot of fun, right? Well, we asked our team to add a "Prima spin" to this trend. We cannot wait to show you what these talented gals came up with!

Each letter area is a Fairy Flora notecard attached to our adorable pom-pom ribbon and then decorated with a few Prima touches.
Add a touch of bling to add sparkle to your celebration! This full-sized banner is perfect for graduations, birthdays, actually ANY party at all!

This Happy Home Banner Frame was a wooden frame that Daniela Dobson covered with paper. What a fun way to alter a frame and turn it in to a fabulous home decor piece! Simply replace the middle "photo" section with product packaging and adhere trim on the inside. Journaling stickers added to the banner draw your eye across the project for extra fun.
Daniela also creatively uses one of our floral jewelry necklaces!

Janine Koczwara brings the banner trend over to a beautiful layout. Of course banners work perfectly for a creative title area! What a fabulous way to use up those scraps of paper too.
Janine cut rectangles of Prima paper, then notched them to create her banner. Pop them up on a larger matching piece of paper for lots of dimension and depth on your page.

Nic Howard shows how a well-designed banner can add so much style to a baby card! Cut simple triangles, pop them up off the card with foam squares and add liquid pearl dots to tie them all together.
Want a soft edge on your banner? Nic uses chalk instead of ink to give a delicate shadow. Apply with a cotton ball or sponge for best results.

Love the various work. Simply amazing work. The shades have a pinkish touch and i love trying some of these ideas. The fall card is creative with a leafy touch to it.
