Toy Story take over - Part 2

Here are my other two projects for Aiden's Toy Story Party.

First up is the birthday banner. I searched Pinterest for hours trying to find a banner that I liked and that I had the supplies on hand to make. But I could not find one - so I created this one. First I downloaded this font, then using Word I typed Happy Birthday- I made the letter I think around 160 pt - I made it so 2 fit on a page. I then printed them and colored them (it was great therapy). I used the lid to a reusable container to draw a circle around the letters as a guide to cut. I folded 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock in half and then cut triangles to get the pendants. Then glued the letters on. I attached the pendants to curling ribbon using tape and viola it's done! 

I don't know why it has the line through it.
Here is how I attached the ribbon  to the back.

Had a pregnancy brain moment and forgot to do Aiden's name :(
Project two was the front door wreath, I found through Pinterest here. I changed mine some since my dollar tree didn't have the hay wreath. Here is how mine turned out.


Just have fun with a glue gun & army men!
I don't recommend using labels here like I did.

I found the pinwheels at the Dollar Tree and just broke the sticks, they even blew in the wind. 


  I leave you with my favorite 3 year old!
