For my sister Joy's birthday party, I knew I wanted to try and make a banner. I saw lots of ideas online and decided to stick with what I know and use my Cricut. I used the George cartridge - my trusty old sidekick. First, I cut out 5 1/2" rounded triangles in white. I inked each one with red. Then I cut out the same triangles in a 5" size using some red papers I had in my stash. After glueing these together, I cut out "Happy Birthday Joy!" using the George font. Finally, I stapled each piece to some thick silver ribbon I found at Crown Imports - a store here in Phoenix that carries just about everything. The banner was HUGE and fit perfectly across my kitchen - although everyone had to duck to get by.
I really like how it turned out and it was the perfect touch to a fun night. Happy Birthday Joy!
