The tag and topper designs found in the printable party kits are meant to be mixed and matched to meet your needs. Use your imagination to decorate with these square, or circular, shapes! There are unique designs for the bridal shower kit (happily ever after / tying the knot) and the birthday party kit (happy birthday / life is the bubbles).

Printable Party Kit

Materials Needed:

Scissors or Paper Trimmer
Semi-heavyweight paper or cardstock. In the photos, I used 32-lb. HP Premium Laserjet Paper which works well with my HP Laserjet printer
Plain tape or double-sided tape
Hole punch
Decorative ribbon
2.25-Inch Circle Punch (2 Inch will also work)
Paper Straws (I found mine at Target but these are similar), toothpicks or other type of stick. A dowel would work great for a centerpiece design.
