I wanted to make a cute Valentine’s day card with the girls. They love all things heart shaped and sparkly so we gathered a few crafting materials to make some mini crackers. Before Christmas we made transparent snow globe crackers which I thought would work really well for Valentine’s day.
Materials You Will Need To make Valentine’s Crackers
- cellophane
- acetate
- ribbon
- heart shaped buttons, sequins and sprinkles
The crackers are really easy to make. You just need to cut a rectangle of acetate and roll into a cylinder.
To Make Valentine’s Day Crackers
- Stuff with the sequins and buttons.
- Roll a larger rectangle or cellophane around it.
- Tie with ribbon
To make the card I cut out a message and boarder using the Cricut Mini. You could do this by hand just as easily. I stuck the parts of the card together using Glu Fix all purpose glue.
I used foam sticky dots to attach the cracker to the card. I was a bit worried the cracker would be too heavy but the dots worked really well and it hasn’t fallen off even over night.
The finished card looks really pretty and sparkly.
Pin it!
