It’s time to start thinking about what Valentines your child wants to take to school. This is a really fun and easy Valentine that your child can give to all their friends. Once you have the card printed your kids can help cut, glue on the stars and tape on the candy.
Step 1 – Print out the shooting star shapes and stars
Step 2 – Cut out shooting star shapes and the stars. I have included a printable for the shooting star shape and the stars. For those of you with a silhouette cutting machine I have included the cut files for the shooting star shape and the star.
Step 3 – Glue the star onto the shooting star shape
Step 4 – Tape the Starburst candy in the middle of the shooting star tail
If your child wants to personalize each card to their friends (sometimes teachers recommend doing this) there is plenty of space on that back to write names and messages.

If you have a Silhouette Cameo cutting machine, here is the cut file so you can simply load it into your Silhouette Studio and have the machine do all the work.

Lori Davis says
January 29, 2014 at 8:30 AMI like these. At my daughter’s middle school they sell “candygrams” for Valentines. For 25 cents, a student can purchase a cut-out heart with a candy attached, and send it to a friend. They have reusable shopping bags on the floor with each teachers name on it. The child buys the candygram and fills in the to: and from: section, and writes their friends homeroom teachers name on the candygram. They then take the candygram and put it in the bag with their friends’ teacher’s name on it. They get “delivered” to each classroom and passed out to the receiver in homeroom on Valentine’s day. Moms usually volunteer to sell them during lunch periods in the cafeteria. All of the proceeds are donated to the American Heart Association.

Rose Kirk says
February 5, 2016 at 12:23 PMHi there. Love this valentine idea. Since I am really new to the silhouette I just have a couple of questions.
1. What is the actual size of the starburst and
2. How do you do the words.
Stefanie says
February 5, 2016 at 12:57 PMHi Rose, Thanks for stopping by! With our cut file (at the bottom of the post) can can download the file right to your computer, open it in Silhouette Studio, print it and then cut it out with your Silhouette. If you are wanting to know how to design rounded words, I recommend YouTube tutorials. Whenever there is something new I want to learn with the Silhouette YouTube is where I go!!
Good luck!
Rose Kirk says
February 5, 2016 at 1:17 PMSo the words go on separately then.
Stefanie says
February 5, 2016 at 2:11 PMYes. Silhouette does use sketch pens so it is possible to write or draw with your Silhouette, but for this project you print the words with a printer and the Silhouette cuts out the shapes.
For an example using the sketch pends, check out the St. Patrick’s Day snack bags.
