SSSS- Show us Some and Some New

Well, I have been going to do this for some time now so today I finally got two of the years of tags made into a Christmas banner to hang in my family room. I strung it up for the photos but will put it away now for next year and hopefully by then, get the rest of the year's put together onto banners. I used my Cricut to cut the banner pieces out of patterned paper and then glued to an ugly light green cardstock I had a ton of. Never going to use that stuff! Then I cut them all out and added the trim piece in a coordinating color, added eyelets to hold the string. Strung together my 2011 tags(something new) and my 2009 tags (something old) from Tim's Twelve Days of Christmas. Why did I skip 2010 you ask??? Because I can't seem to find where I hid those away!!! I found 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2011. I am so organized here, NOT!!! It was a fun project and they will look great wen I have them all the way around my family room. It was hard to get good photos of such a long banner so I did it in sections and with a flash, not the best but you can get the idea of how it looks.
