Simple Banners

In my spare time I've been working on a few banners.

They are so simple and inexpensive.

Although I haven't done it yet, I've got plans to make them reversible.

The base is made from plain chipboard books found at a craft store.  I found mine at Michael's.

Same with the paper.  When the scrapbook open stock goes on sale for seven sheets for a dollar I spend my money on the cute stuff!

The welcome banner is strung on bias tape and the party banner is on a rainbow colored ribbon.

My letters are cut from a stencil set I thrifted awhile ago, but letters from a teacher's store would work too - which reminds me that I have a bunch of those around here.., somewhere...
