I thought I'd share another printable freebie with you.... a larger version of the printable pennants from the last post. I used the pennants to make a "peace" banner.
Here's a closer shot of those pennants:
Peace. Right now that word is something that's near and dear to my heart...and also causes my stomach and heart to clench a little bit. My youngest son (who is in the military), is preparing to depart for faraway places in unsafe lands.... again. So these little pennants have special significance in my kitchen this year.
Here's one more close up of the pennants:
Basically, the pennants are assembled the same way as the pennants in the previous post, except that I also used Sizzix's larger rosette die (the larger one from the Tim Holtz line of die designs). I used one larger rosette, one medium rosette and punched a 1 1/2" scalloped circle using an EK Success punch. The letters are Creative Imaginations foam stickers.
So here's the larger version of the pennants, another FREE printable for you. If you'd prefer to download a pdf version, you can click HERE:
You can use the vintage crackle background from the last post for the back side of the pennants.
Now, about that FREE tin pin set from the last post..... I'm a little late posting the winner, so I'm going to give the winner extra time to claim the prize. Here's the winning comment:

Hi Darcie! I made all the Christmas cards in your Darcie's Club kit from October and they were a HUGE hit with my family, thanks in part to the beautiful tin pins! I'd love to get some for use on next year's batch.

I spent the day making the cute little pennant ornaments to use as package ties. I was so excited to see a larger version and I love the banner! (Lovin' that burlap!). Thank you for sharing with us! I can't wait to see your new website, is it almost ready?

Thank you for these ideas! I love the trees and the branches that are above the pennants. Did you make those also? I will be praying for your son, we are a military family also and understand the sacrifice you make when your family member deploys. Thank him for his service! (Is this the son from your previous post that just got married?!) A special blessing to you and your family this holiday season!
