Glitter shamrock banner

I love love love St. Patrick's Day!  
My hubby's heritage is from Ireland and we named all 4 of our kids Irish names so we go all out when it comes to this lucky holiday (:  

I saw Rebecca Cooper's darling simple St. Patty's Day banner and made it my own:


She was right; this was SO easy to make.  I had everything on hand and you probably do, too.  Rebecca also provided a great tute so head on over to see how she made hers.  I altered mine omitting buttons and using glitter cardstock instead.

You'll need:
5 book pages, hemp/string, staples, glitter paper, hot glue

1. Cut book pages into banners. 
2. Cut shamrocks out of glitter paper. 
3. Fold tops of page banners over and crease.  
4. Hot glue over string. 
5. Hot glue shamrocks onto page bunting:







Enjoy!

We'll be struttin' this at {these} fab parties ;)
