Freebie Friday: Truly Drink and Cupcake Flags

Happy Friday, everyone! For this week's Freebie Friday, I'm sharing a set of cupcake and drink flags that coordinate with the Truly suite!

Each flag measures 5"x0.5", and the file is set to print 14 flags per 8-1/2"x11" page. Simply print, cut out, and attach to straws or bamboo sticks for a quick and easy way to add some style to your cupcakes and cocktails!

 To use:
1. Download the Truly Cupcake and Drink Flag PDF file to your computer, and open with Adobe Reader You can download a free copy of Adobe Reader here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/
2. Print onto 8-1/2"x11" card stock. Please make sure to set page scaling to none in the PDF print options to ensure the flags print at the correct size.
3. Carefully cut each flag out, fold in half, then use adhesive to attach to a toothpick, straw, or bamboo skewer. Tip: Wait to cut the triangular notch out until you've folded in half and glued- that way everything will be perfectly lined up.
4. And enjoy!
