Black and Gold Halloween Banner

Let me admit I am in love with gold!  there I said it.  I never thought in a million years I would be wearing gold jewelry and decorating my house with gold accents.   Heck!  my wedding ring isn’t even gold, up until a year ago I would have gagged if you gave me anything gold!  Now, here I am a year later decorating and incorporating gold into every craft I make!   I am really digging the black and gold for Halloween this year,  I think it brings a really classy effect to Halloween decorations.   I decided to whip up a classy Halloween banner.  I selected a few black and white patterned cardstock papers.   I used my personal cutting machine to cut the pennants for the banner,  I set the to cut 4″ by 6″.  I have a drawer full of chip board letters, I dug through the drawer and selected letters to spell the word “Spooky”.  I spread the letters on some newspaper and then painted a layer of  Mod Podge on each letter.  while the Mod Podge was still wet I sprinkled a layer of gold glitter to cover the entire letter.   I let the letters dry and then hot glued them on the cut cardstock pennants.  Last I glued a black ribbon across all of the pennants to connect them together.     This was a quick simple and classy project for Halloween.  I can’t wait to hang it over my fireplace.
