Use the Curved Occasions Punch as intended and stamp on the banner.  OR….punch out two labels and create a banner ribbon!  

  1. Punch out two curved labels.  
  2. Stamp greeting on one.  
  3. Fold the other in half and trim a curve on the bottom near fold line.  
  4. Cut along fold line.  
  5. Place glue as shown in photo and adhere together.  
  6. Let dry until secure.

Use a marker to create a darker line on the bottom half of the tails.  This creates the look of a shadow which gives the illusion that this is a flowing ribbon!  Use the same color of Stampin’ Blends marker as your cardstock.
