Confetti is always a HUGE hit around here, so I thought it would be a fantastic idea to create a free printable confetti card for Valentine’s Day. I paired my printable up with these super fun confetti straws, and my kids couldn’t wait to get their hands on them! The cards read “Wishing You a Valentine’s Day Sprinkled with Love!” and they are available to download in two different color combinations.
I started by making my own confetti using these awesome fringe scissors. Of course, you can purchase your own pre-cut confetti, but I love being able to make my own custom color mix. I cut a mix of red and pink printer paper, silver gift wrap and gold metallic “tissue” paper for my confetti, and then I tossed a few red sequins into the mix, too.
Using a funnel, I filled jumbo sized clear straws with the confetti, and attached the printable Valentine’s Day card. I stapled each end of the straw closed, and wrapped the ends with holiday themed washi tape.
Just snip open the end of the straw, pour the confetti out, and toss…
I decided to use two different color palettes for my printable, so it’s available in a purple version and a red/gold version. Just click the photos below to print a full size version (4 per page)!
