Sister of the Birthday Girl SVG

Team sister

Sisters are usually the loudest cheerleaders at a party, so this design gives them a pennant to wave. The flag is avocado green and points to the right, with two upright stripes near the wide end, burnt orange then mustard, like a school banner from the 1970s. Sister runs along it in a heavy, rounded script that grows a little smaller toward the point, following the shape of the flag. Below, of the and Birthday Girl are set in a bold, upright script on two lines.

It works for a big sister, a little sister or a twin, and it suits a sporty or school theme.

Color layers

• Base and lines: a dark cocoa edge round the pennant
• Avocado: the olive green pennant
• Burnt orange: the first stripe by the wide end
• Mustard: the second stripe
• Lettering: dark cocoa, Sister and the two lines below

Pieces and weeding

The solid file has 27 pieces and 6 cut-outs. The pennant, stripes and each line of words are separate, so press with the carrier sheet still on (iron-on), lift with transfer tape (adhesive vinyl) or glue to a backing card (paper). The script has only a few small openings, so weeding is quick. It passes our cut checks from about 5.5 inches wide.

Size guide

Below 5.5 inches the script closes up; for a sticker or tag, print it and cut with Print Then Cut.

Pressing a layered pennant

Mirror each layer and cut with the iron-on shiny side down. Press the cocoa base, then the avocado flag, then the two stripes, and add the lettering last. Follow the pressing directions for your vinyl.

Ideas for a sister set

• Several sisters: cut the pennant in a different color for each girl and keep the words the same.
• Big and little: the same design at two sizes, one on a toddler shirt and one on a teen shirt.
• Team colors: use her school or team colors on the flag and stripes.

A real felt pennant for her room is another fun use, cut large from felt or card.

Make it match

To match a party palette, change the flag and stripe colors in the editor; the guide walks through it. Keep the lettering dark so it reads on the flag.
