Banners for Kids-n Bunnies and blossoms hop March 25th



Yesterday and Today (March 24-25), 30+fantastic papercrafters have come together to create Spring-themed banners.They will then donate these banners to Ellen http://cardmonkey-business.blogspot.com/ , who works as Admissions Coordinator at Pediatric Specialty Care (PSC), www.pediatricspecialty.com.
PSC is a long-term care facility for specialneeds children who are medically-fragile and/or technologically-dependent. The babies, children and youths at 

PSC range in age from birth to 21, and are admitted from all over the country.
Some are infants, born prematurely and beforetheir lungs have had a chance to mature. Others have serious birth defects,illnesses or injuries from accidents that cause them to need tender loving carein a home-like environment -- many for their lifetimes.

The first stop on this hop would be :  http://cardmonkey-business.blogspot.com/ 

Our banners are meant to cheer the young patients, their families, and the staff at PSC. Here is the banner that I made and have sent to Ellen to decorate a child's room:

My banner has been made from plastic bunting with the United Kingdom flag on as this is such an important year for the Queen I thought I would bring this into my banner, I have used different colours of bunnies and flowers to give it some feel of spring. I have used My Craft Studio CD for the bunnies and printed them out and then sat cutting them out and taped them onto the banners, the flowers were also taped, it is difficult to stick things onto plastic, but I did the best that I can. This banner is a long one, over 3ft long. Hope you enjoy it...
