NEW Burlap Banners

I am so ready for the FALL. I love everything about the AUTUMN season. The cool weather, the darker nights, the fireplace ablaze and the jackets and blankets that get used more. I long for the start of FALL. However, if you live here in SoCal, you know that we get hot - hot and I mean 90' hot days up until October 31st. Sure we get some cool days but for the most part its still summer throughout September and October. That what Southern California is known for, right??? ughhhh

Anyway, I am slowly getting out my fall decorations and figured I better make some new banners. I wasn't feeling last years so I went thru my stash of fabrics and found some left over pieces of burlap and well since burlap is AWESOME - I thought I would come up with an easy banner to share with you.

 
I cut 5 rectangles out of the burlap and then cut a triangle out of each.

 
then I grabbed some large foam stamps ( I find that foam stamps are the easiest to use)
used some ink or paint will do...and stamped out my saying

 
Here is another fun one made using the same technique - and again all you need is scraps of burlap.

 
Cute right - and you could make them up for friends and family and best part is that they are QUICK>>>

Fabulous banners! Love the Boo one. Hope all is well and you are finding a teeny bit of free time with the kiddos in school.
