Instructions
Create Your Own Pokemon Contest Ribbons
1. Cut 2-inch-wide ribbon into 8-inch lengths. Cut a V-shape notch on the bottom of each length of ribbon.
2. Download a Pokemon image from the Internet. You will find free images at sites like Free Stuffer. Print the image onto printable iron-on transfer paper using your computer printer. Transfer one copy of the image for each ribbon you plan to make.
3. Heat your iron to the setting specified in the printable iron-on transfer paper package instructions. Turn off the steam element on your iron. Place the transfer as specified in the instructions (usually face down) midway down the front of the ribbon. Iron as directed. Remove the paper once the transfer has taken to the ribbon.
4. Use the permanent marker to mark your ribbons with a number 1, 2 or 3; designating 1st, 2nd or 3rd place. Some people prefer not to mark the numbers on their ribbons, but rather to designate the blue ribbon as 1st place, the red as 2nd place and the yellow as 3rd place.
5. Affix a safety pin to the back of each ribbon with a drop of hot glue. Pin the ribbon on the winner of the Pokemon contest, or on each of your party guests.
