July 4th Up-Cycled with vintage ribbon Banner

There's a new challenge at Chalk Ah Lot which is re-purpose or recycle something with chalk. I choose to use the clear CDs that come on top of the large stack of CDs my department uses to burn patient images to take with them to other doctors or hospitals.


The base of the pennants is a clear CD with a red circle over the center. Oh, wait I actually put some vintage red white, and blue ribbon over the circle first. I used Stamp N Plus red powdered chalk on the heart in the pennant below.


The patterned paper is old and Idk who it's by. I embellished the banner with stickers by K and Co, a vintage bottle cap, corners by Making Memories {very old}, and a square sticker that I cut in half to use as corners by Sticko.


I die-cut the letters out using my Cricut and the Art Philosophy cartridge. Each letter has three circles and I placed a red sequin into each. The largest circle's sequins have a rhinestone in the center.


All this is held together by some red, white, and blue ribbon and ready for the summer to begin.


Thanks for looking.
