Simple Paper Pennant Banner

I don’t know about you, but I love those pennant banners. I purchased a couple and they’re great. So simple. One could easily sew some up. I do have a sewing machine, but I just don’t use it much. I guess I am just too obsessive over straight lines so it makes me crazy trying to make things perfect.  Any way, there is a much simpler way to make some pennant banners of your own and if you’re like me, you probably already have all of the supplies in your home. This method does not require any sewing and shouldn’t take you any longer than about 5 minutes.

What you need:

  • 12×12 Scrapbook paper (I chose basic Fall colors for this one) :)
  • Hemp Twine
  • Glue stick and/or Hole Punch
Gather your supplies:
Fold your papers in half:
I chose to punch holes in the corners, but you can also just put the folded paper over the twine and then glue it down to secure it.
Put the twine through the holes like so!
And here’s an example of how it will look! I just made this today so didn’t have an actual subject to show it in use with. ;)
I chose just a basic triangle, but you could easily make different shapes… narrower triangles, circles, etc. And of course, the scrapbook paper patterns to choose from are endless! I have TONS of it already so I didn’t spend a dime on this project! ;)

Happy Family. Happy Baby.

This was such a sweet session. This couple was married here last year (what a lovely place for a wedding!). They asked me to do their family pictures here and I am so glad they did. Such a beautiful place and extra special in their case. I could easily post all of their pictures for everyone to see – they all make me smile!! But, I must save some as a surprise for mom and dad. ;) I hope you all enjoy these as much as I do!!

Cousins

I am not very good at updating my blog as you can see. ;) But, I’m going to add this session any way. This was my first official session here in Mountain Home. I am so glad I got the opportunity to take these pictures. They are all such sweet kids and I had fun getting to know them! Thank you for choosing me as your photographer!!

K is for Kindergarten

IMG_2844

My little girl started Kindergarten today! Can’t believe it is that time already. She’s growing so fast! I know, I know, everyone says that but it really does go by oh so fast. We took some special pictures of her last night – she loves being my little model these days. :)

Found these books at a local new and used bookstore. They were perfect for this session and neat to have just because. :)
