Learn how to make this Simple but super cute Washi Tape Cake Banner on cleverbloom.comThis week we celebrated my husband’s birthday.  He is really amazing and I am so lucky to have him!  And although I fulfill my wifely duties in some ways…I really lack in others (the kitchen).  I feel bad for him because I seriously make the same 4 dinners over and over, and he never complains.  So this year I was determined to make him a cake.  I just wanted it to be delicious!  This was the cake.  It was simple looking but very delicious!  I just used a box cake but the Almond Butter Cream frosting was the best!  Here is the recipe from Stuck on Sweet (I only did a half batch and it was enough for a double 8″ round with none on the sides).  Anyway, today I’m sharing this Simple Washi Tape Cake Banner.  It was so cute!  And how cute is he?!

Let’s get started!

1. Cut your washi tape into two long strips.  Each flag will need to be cut into 2″ pieces so 2 times how ever many flags you need will be your length.  I needed 6 flags so my long strips were just over 12″.  If you have wide tape, you don’t have to double up.

Well honey, I hope 33 brings you great joy, much love, and more sleep then 32 let you have.  You are kind, gentle, understanding, peaceful, and honestly the funniest person I know.  Remember when Monica started working with a new guy who was funnier than Chandler?!  That will never happen to us!  Could you BE any funnier?!  Ha!  I love you so much!  Here’s to another year.

Thank you for joining me today.  It was kind of different sharing my family a little, I hope you enjoyed it!  Pin the picture below to you favorite Party Board on Pinterest  for quick access next time you need to jazz up a cake.  Have a great day!
