Supplies:
Martha Stewart circle cutter and cutting mat
Deep pink, light pink, and white scrapbook/card stock paper
Wilton Black Swirl 4-inch cake doilies
Black sick-on letters
Pink polka-dot ribbon
hole punch
Photos
1. Count the number of pictures you want to use and then add 14 to that number for the happy birthday letters.
2. Using the circle cutter, cut out 14 white 2 3/4-inch circles.
3. Using the circle cutter, cut the photos into 2 3/4-inch circles.
4. Take the total from step one and then cut out half of that number of light pink and half dark pink 4-inch circles using the circle cutter (you will alternate these).
5. Attach a black cake doilie to each of the light pink circles (I use double sided tape).
6. Organize the photos into the order you want them to be on the banner, split them into two even piles. I went in chronological order.
7. Attach the black stick-on letters to the white 2 3/4-inch circles, spelling happy birthday and leaving one blank for a space. I put a cute flower embellishment on the blank one just for fun.
8. Alternating the dark pink and light pink/black doilie circles, attach the first stack of photos, then the happy birthday letters, then the second stack of photos to the center of the circles.
9. Punch 2 holes either on each side or at the top left and right of each circle.
10. Cut 6-inch strips of ribbon and use these to tie all of the circles together in a chain. I did double knots.
11. Cut two (2) 10-inch strips of ribbon for the ends and attach to the first and last circles.
12. Hang and enjoy!!
