Pretty in Pink Pennant Birthday Banner

I just don't think a little girl's first birthday party would be complete without a personalized pink pennant banner, don't you? Well, at least my granddaughters wouldn't have been! hehehe  This crafty grandmother just couldn't resist the urge to create a very beautiful and one of a kind 1st birthday banner for her beloved little beauty.  Believe me when I tell you, it was a labor of love.  This project is not one for the faint of heart or impatient.  It's not difficult, just a little time consuming, mostly when it comes to accordian folding a bazillion rosettes, but anyway.  The end result is most definitely worth it.  When the party is all over with, her Mom can take the name portion of  the banner and hang it in her room and since I used the same colors on the banner that her room is decorated with, it will flow beautifully!  Hope you enjoy this little project.  Video tutorial for this project.
