Happy New Year Balloons SVG

About this design

Balloons make any room feel like a party. Three round balloons float at the top of this design, the middle one a little higher and larger, each with a curved highlight cut out near the top and a small knot below. Curly strings hang down toward Happy New Year, written in a soft, rounded script.

It is a light, cheerful design that suits family parties and kids’ celebrations as well as grown-up ones.

Pieces and weeding

The solid file has 8 pieces and 12 cut-outs. The strings are separate pieces, and the script has fine joins, so it passes our cut checks from about 8.5 inches wide. For cards and small tags, print it and cut around it.

Making it lighter

The three balloons and their strings can stand on their own as a party decoration. In your software, hide the lettering and cut just the balloons for napkins, cupcake toppers or a garland, at about 4 inches wide. Cut the balloons from shiny metallic or holographic vinyl to imitate foil balloons, and keep the strings in a silver or white that contrasts with the background so they do not disappear. For a garland, cut a dozen balloons in three colors and string them on twine with a little space between them.
