Banners and Pennants with Echo Park Paper

I was so excited when Echo Park Paper debuted last year and I get a thrill each time I see a peek at a new release. I’m giddy at the moment due to upcoming release of Country Drive. Eeeeee. While I wait, not so patiently, for its release, I made some layouts featuring banners with a few of my favorite EP collections.

My little boy is a bit obsessed with cars.  I'm told this is a stage boys and men never outgrow!  Echo Park's Little Boy collection seemed to be made just for me, or rather, just for my little boy. I especially loved the stickers sheet of trains, planes, boats and cars. So cute. I used Little Boy mixed with a bit of Wintertime for this page of my son absorbed in play. It’s called “At The Track.”


When EP came out with a line called, Playground, well, I couldn’t resist. I love that the EP lines include soft, lightly patterned papers on the flip side of their whimsical patterns. Here, I used the backside of “Capture The Flag” as the base of my page. I also added stickers and a journaling card from the Playground line. Under the main pic, I added a little border of Springtime and for my banner, I used one of EP’s debut lines, A Walk in the Park.



I love using banners. Oh, I hope this trend doesn't go out of style!  Banners and pennants give such a whimsy touch to boy pages.
