12 Months of Banners. Learn how to easily create 12 months of banners using the We R Memory Keepers Banner Punch Board.

After returning home from Snap Conference earlier this year in April, I was so inspired by all the new products that were out on the market.

I began brainstorming an idea that would put together some of the cool new products I had seen at Snap along with my idea to simplify by creating a multitude of projects with a limited number of core supplies.

My idea was to use the new We R Memory Keepers Banner Punch Board to create one banner for each month of the year. This way, each month I would have a jump start on my holiday and seasonal decorating.

I tend to change out my seasonal decor around my house once a month or every couple of months and I often add banners to the mix. They are easy to create and are usually not too expensive. The banner punch board was one of the coolest products I saw at Snap.

I don’t always want to use my die-cut machine to create banner shapes, and cutting them out by hand using a template can be really time-consuming. The punch board eliminates the hassle and you can create the banner, flag and pennant shapes so easily!

I also wanted to start with a fun, decorative paper pad and try to make all 12 banners out of one paper pad and a few other supplies. Sometimes I will buy a paper pack because it is so cute, but then I don’t really know what to do with it beyond scrapbooking. I will be showing you the versatility of a paper pack and all the fun banners you can make.

To create most banners I will use:

Other items that may be included:

Neutral cardstock and/or Primaries cardstock
Adhesive squares
Cricut machine to die-cut letters or shapes
Other miscellaneous embellishments

The first banner is going to be for August that I will be sharing with you this weekend. After that, I will be sharing one banner a month. By the end of 12 months, you will have 12 banners you can display in your home using many of the same supplies over and over again. I can’t wait to share the first banner with you tomorrow!
