Chalk Talk the Simple Way

   
    Banners are the big thing right now so I decided to make some banners as the background for this simple design from the Chalk Talk stamp set.  This image coordinates with the Extra Large Oval punch so how easy is that, no Big Shot involved to cut out this image.  I used the This and That Epic Day designer paper to make the banners.  My friend Julie told me an easy way to get the notch on the bottom of the banner.

1.  First make a cut about 1/2 inch in the center of the bottom of the paper.

2. Next go the the left-hand corner and cut up into the cut you made.  you have now made 1/2 of the notch.

3. Finally, do the same thing only this time from the right-hand corner.  Perfect notch every time and no more guessing.
