Quick and Easy Halloween Banner


Materials:
*13 4.5" x 6.5" sheets of Halloween paper (such as from these Spooky Time paper collections)
*Halloween stickers (I used Halloween Essentials bat felt stickers from Joann)
*6' black ribbon
*All purpose adhesive
*Scissors
*Ruler
*Pencil

Directions:
*Select 13 sheets of patterned paper (or some other odd number, depending on how long you would like your banner to be).
*Place a sheet of paper pattern side down and mark off the 2.25" mark along the bottom edge.  Using the ruler, trace a straight line from the upper right corner to the 2.25" mark and from the upper left corner to the 2.25" mark.  This should form a triangle.
*Following the pencil lines, cut out the triangle.
*Repeat the above steps for the remaining sheets of paper.
*Arrange the papers in a pattern you find pleasing.
*Decorate with Halloween stickers, if desired.
*Glue the triangles to the ribbon.
