It's My Party Outdoor Bunting

Quick share of another of the All Day Event projects... Some nice subtle Happy Birthday bunting!! Suitable for the men folk as well as the ladies...

Extra special as each pennant is in a sealed/plastic unit - so it can be used outside as well as inside...
Though it hasn't been tested to see how much rain/wind it could actually withstand!!
To make this an outdoor version I used the Polka Dot Cone Cellophane Bags and then one of the It's My Party Washi Tapes (5 options to choose from!) to seal along the top on the front and back...
I made a template for everyone to use to cut the papers as required... you can then get 6 flags per piece of 12 x 12 if you so desire... 

The final decoration was left purposefully simple - alphabet stamping then punching out as 2" circles - and then punching of 2 3/8" scallop circles and stars...
Going to be a lot of these made around here!!! It has proved very popular in the flesh! Though my photos are rubbish... might try moving outside for a test (and re-photo) later on in the week!! And I will be sure to re-position that pesky h flag at the beginning!! It slipped!!

What a great idea for the bags, I've been wondering what else to do with these apart from sweet treats😀

Thank you Peg... Actually a banner of sweet treats for Easter would be rather cool!! Wonder how many I have left....!
