For the banner, I used Pretty Pennants and cut each at 5.5" high. This way, I could get 4 pennants out of one sheet of 12x12 paper. I cut the base pennants in black cardstock and then cut the overlay for each using pattern paper from 3 different Recollections stacks The circles behind the letters were cut at 2.25" from the DCWV burlap stack. The purple glitter paper was a summer clearance item from Joann's at 10 cents a sheet and I used the new Lyrical Letters 2 for the font. :-) I inked the edges of EVERYTHING! Since I didn't want to punch holes in the pennants and really wanted it sturdy, I cut strips of chipboard the width of each banner and about 3/4" high. Using my tiny attacher, I stapled the ribbon in between each piece and then glued them to to back upper edge of the pennants. I covered the exposed chipboard/staple with black cardstock. Its hard to tell in the pics, but I tied a small strip of alternating black and orange tulle between each pennant.
Here is the full banner. Wish I had a wide angle lens.
Each pennant got an embellishment. Some were cricut cuts, some were Recollections. The spider in the center piece was made using a technique that Rockin Renee taught us an Mania. Here are a few close ups and thanks for stopping by!
Hard to tell but the web was cut with black glitter paper. Love the spider~he's made from beads!
