Welcome to another Make It Monday! Can you believe this is #17? So excited for the series and I hope you’re enjoying it as much as I enjoy creating projects to share!
Are your creative juices flowing? Are you motivated to make some goodies?! I’d love to hear from you and see your creations, so be sure to let me know in the comments below! I read every single comment and love getting to know YOU! There areΒ some fun plans in the works for the rest of the year, so be sure you don’t miss a single creative post and join the fun here!
DidΒ you know I opened up an Etsy shop the end of last year? I did indeed! It brings me great joy to share these creations with others who love hand-crafted creations, be it banners, decorations, cards, party supplies, and more!
I created these goodies just in time for Valentine’s Day…coming up in just 12 days!! Are you ready to share your love, heart and kisses with your loved ones? These sweet banners will help set the stage for you and your honey loves!
Buy Kisses 5Β’ banner on EtsyΒ This one is one of a kind! Definitely one of my most favorite banners ever β€
Buy Fall in Love banner on Etsy
Buy Cupid Amour banner on Etsy
All of these are handmade by yours truly π I love adding the extra touch by dry or heat embossing to add texture, hand faux-stitching, distressing, stamping, cutting…whatever it takes to give it that extra something to make it extra special! Visit the Clicky Chick CreatesΒ Etsy shop to order yours today!
Or if you’re inspired to make any of these on your own, below are all the goodies I used to make them! My biggest tips to you:
- When picking your papers, pick a patterned paperΒ for your pennants (background)Β and a solid card stock for your letters.
- Adding custom touches to your letters helps them pop – think heat embossing, dry embossing Β for texture, glitter, hand faux-stitching and more!
- If your letters don’t pop against the patterned paper, add a neutral colored shadow behind the letters to give them some pop!
So I have to ask you…how do campers create a Valentine? Keep the Make It Monday circle going, and head on over to my sweet friend Kristie Sloan’s Artful Adventures to find the answer! Her creativity is inspiring and her tutorials are fantastic! Be sure you don’t miss visiting her blog!
As always, thanks for stopping by. Have a joyful, creative, blessing filled day! Make sure not to miss any future posts by signing up for theΒ Clicky Chick Creates email list here! Youβll get a great little freebie download as my thank you!
Live creatively!

Thanks a bunch, Kristie! I’ve been saving that paper for so long, totally waiting for the “perfect” project! The minute I decided to make banners with that coveted stack of cherished papers, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with that paper design! The KISSES 5Β’ is by far my fave π
