Happy Birthday Banner

I need a birthday banner.

I like this one. I like that it isn't triangles, 
But it's like the back end of an arrow. 
Mine won't be exactly like this, but very
Similar. 


I found it at Rain On A Tin Roof blog.
Check out her blog with all her creations. 

I gathered supplies from the Dollar Store while
On break at work.



Three of each ABC letters came in the pack of 
letters.  Which was awesome because I thought
I would have to buy a lot of packs of letters to 
Get as many of each that I needed. But one 
Pack was exactly enough. 

I made a pattern for the end of the arrow thing,
Not a triangle. And cut 28 from different colored
construction Paper. On hind sight, I should have
 used card stock, which I have at home. But I 
Am not at home, I am at work and the dollar 
Store didn't have any thing but construction 
Paper. 




I attached the letters to the cut outs and
It reads Happy Birthday, so far. 



I'll have to finish it tonite at home and I will
Show the final hanging happy birthday banner 
Next week.

  1. You are so creative! I love the banner! I know it would be more work, but could you attach the cutouts you did with paper to heavy card stock at home? I'll look forward to seeing the results!
