Today I have a party banner that I made using the Giant Flower cartridge and Cricut Craft Room Basics. This banner coordinates with the birthday invitation that I posted on my blog last week. Click here to check it out => Daisy invitation
Here is the deal, I see people making banners all of the time. I did not think it would be a hard project and it wasn't. However, photographing the banner is where the problems start. Due to my lack of places to photograph it properly, you get to see some of my room.

| The daisy out at 4 1/2" and the leaves out at 6"using Giant Flowers. |

I like the daisies on your beautiful banner. I can think of several projects that would be better with larger flowers like this. Thanks for sharing!
What a pretty banner. Love the beautiful big daisies!
I love how fresh and bright the colors are! I've never made a banner, and I've been looking at LOTS of banner projects! Many of those I've seen, have been too fussy for my 5 year old's room. I hope you won't mind if I borrow from the simplicity of yours. Thank you, as always, for the inspiration. Don't worry about the glimpse of your craft room. It looks clean and organized.
That is gorgeous! I can't wait to get the giant flowers cart! I love making banners. Last weekend I made my first banner out of fabric. It worked beautifully! Great job on yours!
Neat to see something made with that cartridge. I have it ordered and on the way. I am looking forward to getting it.
So pretty! Love this! lclass003atgmaildotcom

Very Beautiful Banner!!
Very cute banner, just love the flowers!
Beautiful banner, I love this new cartridge. Great colors!
iI really like making banners for newborns, it is fun to make the banner a part of the baby shower decor (IF THE NAME OF BABY IS KNOWN)
Moms/Dads just seem to beam when they see a banner with the name and that they can use it in the nursery. I love seeing people smile at something I have made. Merri Lynn in Hazel dell
I never grow tired of seeing the many things this machine can do.
Just looked at my March magazine which features the Giant Flowers cartridge, FABULOUS!!! A must have I am thinking :-)
Cute banner idea!

What a fantastic banner!! Loving those giant flowers!

Norma
Very pretty and creative!!! TFS!!
I signed up to be a Consultant this month! I still can't believe I did!
Unfortunately my Imagine is not working properly so ProvoCraft is replacing my baby with a refurbished one :( Every time I see my Imagine packed back into it's box waiting for the return shipping label I just get sick to my stomach. It's amazing how bad I feel! It's just a machine right??? Ugh. I've brought out the original Cricut but it's just not the same. I have a job to do though. 30 baby shower invitations were ordered just before my Imagine started acting up. No Imagine for 2-3 weeks!!!
I love the Giant Flowers, such an impact.
I'm a new follower! I love the idea for a banner! My niece's birthday is coming up and I'd love to do something like this for her!
My fiance bought me a Cricut for Valentine's Day (Love Him!) I've never even seen one in action before so I'm just blown away! My first time on your site too and all I can say is "Wow!, where do I sign up?!"
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and talent with us
I love the giant flowers...now I need a bigger cricut. Lol
Great banner!
Oh, this tickles my fancy, lol....I love the sparkly centres
Great banner! I am making one for my son's birthday but i don't think he'd appreciate flowers and bows!!! :) JenBrierley2 at gmail dot com
That was really nice. I like it.
