Let's Make A Quick Aloha Pineapple & Flamingo Banner by Roni
I like to change up my front door decorations frequently and keep my guests guessing as to what I will come up with next. I have some standby favorites that I used year after year but I like to sprinkle in something new here and there for a change of pace. I'm always trying to come up with new themes this month - we're going tropical!
I thought it would be fun to kick up the color and create this bold and bright ALOHA banner for the summer months. With the right dies this banner is a breeze to create in under an hour.
Step 1 - Save time by cutting and weeding all of your elements at one time. It does seem like a lot of work when you're looking at the list but it really does simplify it in the end.
This project requires the following:
(7) ruffled banners cut from Violet/Gold Glossy Rinea Foiled Paper,
(7) Turquoise/Turquoise Starstruck Rinea Foiled Paper straight edge banners,
(7) Turquoise/Turquoise Starstruck Rinea Foiled Paper straight edge banners,
(4) Flamingos cut from Fuchsia/Gold Glossy Rinea Foiled Paper;
(3) Pineapple Bases cut from Gold/Gold Glossy Rinea Foiled Paper
(3) Pineapple Webbing cut from Copper/Gold Glossy Rinea Foiled Paper or Mocha/Gold Glossy Rinea Foiled Paper
(3) Pineapple Tops from both Emerald/Gold Glossy Rinea Foiled Paper and Jade/Jade Starstruck Rinea Foiled Paper
and
Desired letters cut from Ebony/Gold Glossy Rinea Foiled Paper
(ALOHA)
Step 2 - Affix the straight edge banners to the ruffled banners.
Step 3 - Glue a flamingo or pineapple to each of the 7 banner pieces and let dry.
Step 4 - Glue the letters to the banners and let dry.
Step 5 - Thread the banners onto a length of twine and enjoy!
