What you need:

  • White printer paper
  • Yellow construction paper
  • Orange construction paper
  • Markers
  • Scissors
  • Glue stick
  • Ruler
  • Ribbon

What you do:

  1. Print out the letters to spell out “Happy Birthday” using your favorite fill in font.
  2. Cut out each letter to be 5 x 5 inch square.
  3. Color in the font letters with your favorite markers or highlighters for that extra punch!
  4. Using your ruler as a straight edge, tear into 7 x 7 inch squares from the yellow construction paper.
  5. Glue the cut out decorated letters in the middle of the yellow squares.
  6. Again, using your ruler as a straight edge, tear 9 x 9 inch squares of orange construction paper.
  7. Glue the yellow squares in the middle of the orange squares.
  8. Punch holes in the upper corners and thread your ribbon through it.
  9. Hang banner for you and the birthday boy or girl to enjoy!

      Um, I didn’t write that. My birthday is in December. And I have way more than 20 Webkinz. On my meganlovescheetahs account, I have 61 Webkinz and on my 1000Silverstar account I have 2. And don’t I always use proper puncuation? Why don’t you use the name: Silver Starfall, Silverstream, Stylestar or just something else. If you stop I forgive you. -Moonstar◘◘◘
