A yummy Valentine’s Day treat without the sugar! Skip the candy and let a special little someone know you’ve had your eye on them with a printable DIY I Spy Valentines card.
V&T are a little obsessed with search and find books, mazes, and anything remotely seek-n-find. So with them in mind I created this fun little DIY for them to give to their little homeschool friends this year. This little DIY I SPY Valentine is so incredibly easy to put together, let me show you how!
DIY I Spy Valentines
Supplies:
- Poly-Fil Poly-Pellets
- Glitter Mixing Tubes
- Spangles Sequins
- White Cardstock
- Pink and Red Twine
- Awl
- Scissors
- Printable
Make it:
So, you can start this one of two ways, you can print out the pre-printed ones I’ve already filled in for you, with the pre-selected items to find, or you can fill in your own with the editable ones (my first fill-in printable – yay – I’m movin’ on up ;)!
- Choose your spangles, don’t get too crazy, stick to 9-13 sequins to put in the tube. If you are creating your own I SPY be sure to write down the sequins you are using (so you don’t forget).
- Start off with filling the tube with a big pinch of the pellets, then a sequin, then another pinch of pellets, then another sequin… and so on & so on until you use them all.
- Don’t fill to the top, leave about a half an inch from the top so the contents can shift a little to make the sequins searchable.
- Print out the printable and cut out each 4×6 card. Center and place a sealed tube on each 4×6 card.
- While holding the tube onto the card, use the awl to poke a small hole on either side of the tube through the cardstock.
- Thread the twine through both holes and knot around the back of the 4×6 card to secure the tube to the front.
- Repeat the steps for each tube.
