When my little "Rowdy" dinosaur tuned one year old last January, I needed to create a splash for his party. I put a lot of work into his brother's first birthday party and I wanted Rowdy to be able to look back and feel like I did a lot for him, too. A central part of any birthday party is the "Happy Birthday" banner. Keith and I created this amazing rainbow dinosaur footprint birthday banner for Rowdy's party and we wanted to share the free printable with you today.

For Rowdy's party, we printed one footprint per page. The banner took up a whole wall! I taped each footprint individually to the crepe paper wall I had set up. Alternatively, you could attach them to some string and then hang them on wall. For a smaller banner, you can print the footprints 2/page.
I used a free Jurassic Park font for the letters. I don't think that anyone noticed the font at the party, but I liked knowing that there was an additional dinosaur connection. The letters themselves are very narrow and so we used 500 pt font to get them to fill the footprints nicely.
Slowly I'm getting through all of the DIY projects I did for Rowdy's birthday party. (Very slowly, he is almost 20 months old!) I thought I was almost done but then I keep discovering more projects!
