Balloon Butterfly Cards For Kids To Make & Gift This Spring

Learn how to make these adorable balloon butterfly cards with your kids – perfect for a fun spring craft!

Craft Supplies:

  • Latex Balloons
  • Large Glue Dots/Tape
  • Cardstock Paper
  • Small Wiggle Eyes
  • Basic Craft Scissors
  • Colored Markers
  • Scrapbook Stickers

You can find ALL our favorite craft supplies via our AMAZON SHOP link!

Directions:

  • First fold a single sheet of cardstock in half to create a card.
  • Repeat for each butterfly card you want to make today.
  • Next grab your balloon {one per butterfly wings card} and use glue dots to secure it to the front of the card. This will create the body of the balloon butterfly {if glue dots don’t work – use tape or foam adhesive instead.} You will want the larger part of the balloon to be facing up, to be the head of the butterfly, while the longer part is the body.
  • Once the balloon is secure to the card front, go ahead and grab your remaining cardstock.
  • Cut out heart shaped pieces to be the wings of the butterfly.
  • To finish off the Balloon Butterfly Cards, glue your cardstock elements to the card front.
  • Then draw on antennas with your markers and glue on wiggle eyes to the balloon. If you like, add stickers or glitter to the wings for a fun look.
  • Now add other embellishments you see fit before gifting away proudly!!!
