Prima Marketing The Home Baker Banner Tutorial with Reneabouquets
Hello, Friends! It’s Wonderful Wednesday and I have a darling The Home Baker Banner Tutorial to share with you. I can’t remember the last time I worked with a paper collection this whimsical and adorable. It makes me think of the “If You Give a Mouse a Cookie” children’s book, only sweeter. Let’s take a closer look, shall we?
Mason Jars
Did you know I have a “thing” for Mason jars? Well, I do! I store everything from dried goods to leftovers to seashells to buttons in them, and the older they are, the more I like them! So I had to feature the lovely Mason Jar ephemera bits on this banner.
Baking Mice
Squeeeek! What else can I say about this adorable little mouse in her stripey jacket and stylish scarf? This image is fussy cut from the 12×12 paper collection, backed with foam tape and layered with some sweet posies and an old cookbook page. Do you spy the chocolate chip cookies?
This darling mouse is wearing a very fashionable bakers cap. Also cut from the 12×12 paper pad, she’s hurrying to the kitchen with a jar full of sugar cubes. So precious!
The Shaker Frame
If you look closely in this shaker element, you’ll find itty bitty kitchen utensils mixed in with the buttons, beads and sequins. The frame is a gorgeous Reneabouquets shell frame (linked below). I also used an April in Paris Doily on the end pieces in this banner, as well as some gorgeous butterflies.
Photographing these big banners is a challenge, but here’s a look at all 7 pennants.

I am sooo late commenting on your delightful banner. These papers work really well with scene setting projects along with the earthy buttons and ribbon. The vintage imagery is right up my alley. It is rare to have some cute elements in a vintage design and I love what you have been creating. It is finally summer here hot and humid, perfect for hiding away with the cool air and doing paperarts!
This banner is one of the sweetest banners yet! But hey, I luv this paper collection …the colors, the Ball/Mason jars, the sweet mouses, which I can’t believe I’m saying that!!! Lol! I too store my buttons, dried beans, old jewelry and just stuff in my jars also! Luv the brown striped ribbon and the gathered ribbon too. Would never have thought to use those with this collection! Thanks so much for the inspiration Kathy! Hugs, Suzy Q
This is so darling!! I love it…mason jars and mice! In love!!
Hi Kathy! What a wonderful way to start the New Year! I love these cute little mice and the mason jars. Gorgeous banners!!! Big hugs, my sweet friend! xoxo
I am so enamored with your banners. Having bought several, they are even more spectacular in person. Makes me happy!
This banner couldn’t be more adorable! Love what you have created with this paper collection-definitely a good way to start the day watching your videos and having coffee. Thank you for sharing.
Sweet paper thoughtfully crafted! And hey, you gotta love Reneabouquet!
