Girly Birthday Banner

Over the weekend my family and I did a surprise Birthday Party for my Mom. It turned out to be a wonderful surprise for her and such a fun party!! 

For the party I made a couple different things of decor which I will be showing you throughout the week.

Today I am going to show you how I made a cute Birthday Banner. 

Here it is:

This was really fun and easy to make! 

What You Will Need:

-Scrapbook Paper {I used 6 different papers. I had 3 of each kind for the circles. I used 5 different patterns for the circles.}

-Cricut or other cutting machine

-Glue Stick

-Foam Tape

-Packaging Tape or Masking Tape

-Scissors

-Jute

-Different Ribbons

How I Made It:

First I got all my cutting done on my Circut. For the circles, I did the big circles at 5 3/4" and the smaller ones at 5". I did 13 of each size. I also cut out the letters "Happy Birthday" using the Simply Sweet Cartridge. I did those at 4".

Next, I took the glue stick and glued the circles together. 

Once those were all glued, I put the letters on the circles. I used my foam tape to give the letters some definition. 

Here are the circles all finished:

Next, I spaced the circles out evenly to measure how long the jute needed to be. 

I did each word on a different jute piece. I then used my packaging tape to 

tape the circles to the jute string. I tied the'Birthday' word to the 'Happy' piece of Jute. 

I also tied loops in the end of the happy jute string for easy hanging. 

Lastly, I took some matching ribbon and tied a few pieces to each end of the Birthday String. 

And that's it!! It went together so fast and I LOVE how it turned out!

Definitely fun and cheery for a Birthday Greeting!

Here it is hung at the Surprise Party:

The best part about this banner is it didn't cost me a thing!!!

I had everything on hand to make it with!

I am also excited to have it on hand now for other birthday parties down the road.
