DIRECTIONS
General: Please read all directions prior to beginning. It is advised to print all items on
cardstock unless otherwise noted. All items are formatted to print on 8.5x11 paper. If printing at home, set your printer to its maximum print margins. Cut just inside all cutting
guides/lines. I suggest sealing all ribbon lengths before using. A few basic tools will assist
you in creating your package:
Required Tools:
Scissors
Tape (preferably double sided and standard scotch tape)
Single hole punch
Exacto-Knife
Hot glue or craft glue (not advised to use school glue)
Helpful Tools (but not required):
Paper Cutter
Paper Punches (1.5 inch and 2 inch circles)
Small hole punch (1/8 or 3/16)
Cutting mat (when using your exacto knife, no cutting matuse a stack of old magazines!)
Decorative Scissors
Craft Supplies (to make some of the items, these items can be purchased at your local craft store):
Ribbon (I prefer grosgrain, but satin or even curling ribbon will work)
Lollipop sticks or bamboo food picks (for your cupcake toppers)
Fray check or a lighter (to seal the ends of your ribbon)
Embellishments (for the party hats): I suggest ribbon, curling ribbon, tulle, etc.
12x12 Scrapbook Paper (to back the door sign)
Printable Iron on transfer paper (for the shirt design)

Section I: Banner
The banner consists of numerous shapes (circles, squares, etc) containing the message. Cut
out all shapes, including the hole guide. Use the hole guide to mark your banner shapes and
punch with a single hole punch or an exacto knife. Note: The banner hole guide does not line
up with your spacers or number banner piece. Cut, mark and punch your spacers and number banner pieces using the spacer guide and number guide. Once all pieces are cut and
punched, lay them out in your preferred order and string onto your ribbon.
Alternate Idea: Use the banner spacers are dcor around your house, punch a hole, string onto ribbon and hand on door knobs, from a chandelier, etc.
Section II: Cupcake Toppers
Cut or paper punch (2 inch circle) all front pieces. Then cut or punch (1.5 inch) all back pieces. To assemble, lay the front piece face down on a clean dry surface, apply a small amount
of hot glue or craft glue or tape, lay your lollipop or bamboo stick down, add a drop of glue
and attach your back piece. Allow to dry completely before handling (especially if you use
craft glue).
Cupcake topper pieces can also double as confetti, silverware wrap fronts, cup labels, etc.
Print them on adhesive sheets to allow them to function as stickers.
Section III: Favor Tags
If you wish for the reverse to be printed vs. white, print one of the patterned papers on the reverse of the favor tags.
Option 1: Cut out favor tags. Using your single punch (or smaller punch if available) punch
your holes. Cut your ribbons long enough to allow you space to tie. I prefer to fold my ribbon in
half, slip the folded end through the hole and insert your loose ends through the ribbon loop
and pull tight. Tie onto your bag or favors.
Option 2: Print on adhesive paper and they will be stickers. Cut out, be sure to clean off your
scissors afterwards to remove any residual adhesive.
Option 3: Cut out favor tags and use double back tape to attach to your item.
Section IV: Party Hats
Cut along the guidelines. Using an exacto knife make your slit. To embellish your hats, create a
small bunch of ribbons, tulle or curling ribbon by tying 1 end in a knot. Attach to the interior of
the hat, leaving the knot on the inside and the ribbon up out the top. Secure the knotted end
on the interior of the hat with scotch tape or glue. Wrap the hat into a cone shape, inserting
the tab into the slit. On the interior of the hat, tape over the tab securing it to the interior of the
hat. Cut 2 equal ribbon lengths long enough to allow you to tie around the childrens chins
and tie. Glue each piece of the ribbon on the interior of the hat on opposite sides.
Section V: Cupcake Wrappers
After printing, cut out the cupcake wrappers. Wrap around a baked and cooled, undecorated cupcake. THESE ARE NOT INTENDED FOR BAKING, you must use a standard cupcake liner
during the baking process. Secure on the back with double sided or standard tape. Using a
pastry bag, pipe on your frosting. For added customization trim the top edge with decorative
scissors.

Section VI: Favor Box

Using the favor box paper template and directions, cut out the template and use a guide to
cut out boxes from a patterned paper of your choice and assemble using the directions on
the template page.
Section VII: Patterned Papers
Various patterned papers are included in this file. They can be used for numerous party items.
Idea 1: Silverware Wraps
Print on standard quality paper, cut your patterned paper using the guidelines (easiest if you
have a paper cutter). Wrap your silverware sets with a napkin, using a paper strip, wrap
around the silverware/napkin combos and secure with a small piece of tape or double sided
tape. If you wish, attach using a double sided piece of tape, a cupcake topper piece front.
Idea 2: Confetti
Cut or punch small pieces to use as confetti.
Idea 3: Dcor
Use paper to decorate various items, including lining serving trays, wrapping cups, water bottle wraps, juice box wraps, etc. Using standard quality paper in lieu of cardstock makes wrapping items (juice boxes, etc.) easier.
Section VIII: Large and Small Pennants
Print and cut out pennants. Using the corresponding hole guide, punch or cut your holes. String
onto ribbon and hang. Small pennants work great as high chair bunting.
Section IX: Water Bottle Wraps
Print on standard quality paper, cut, wrap around water bottles and adhere with double sided
or scotch tape.
Section X: Place Card/Food Labels
Design 1-Flat: Print and cut just inside of the dotted lines. Attach to food containers with
double sided or scotch tape.
Design 2-Folded Place Cards/Food Labels: Print and cut out just inside the dotted lines. Fold in
half.
Section XI: Signs
Print and cut out. To add to the size of the sign, back with 12x12 scrapbook paper. Hang using
tape or punch holes, string a ribbon and hang.
Section XII: Shirt Decal
Using printable iron on heat transfers (available at craft & office stores), follow the directions
closely in the package to print and adhere to a cotton shirt. Note, since printers do not print
white, any white on the design will be negative space, therefore you will want to iron onto a
white shirt or piece or fabric in order to keep those areas white.
Section XIII: Fill-In Invitations and Thank You Cards
Print on cardstock. 5x7 Invitations fit in an A7 envelope or an A9 (easier to find but a bit big).
Print thank you card on cardstock fold in half. Thank you cards fit in an A2 envelope.
Happy Celebrating, Carli-DimplePrints
