Here is what you will need.

I started by piecing together paper to create my 12×12 base, added the photos and some additional paper elements for the title.
Then I was ready to create my banners.
I first determined how long the paper cord needed to be for the banners.
I cut pieces of ribbon to various lengths and stapled over the paper cord.
I continued alternating colors and thicknesses.
I laid the top banner out making sure the colors were arranged the way I liked them.
And then tried them both together, like an audition.
Then I committed and stapled the ends down.

Until next time…wrap everything in ribbon!
