I’m working on a little treat to give to my fellow Toastmasters for Easter, and thought I’d share my seed packet template here too – since you might like to make one for your kids’ or grandkids’ Easter basket. You put RAINBOW seeds (sprinkles!) inside!! Or M&Ms. Or Skittles. Or confetti!
Supplies for this project are linked at the end of this post. Compensated affiliate links may be used at no cost to you.
These are fun to make for Easter baskets, at Sunday school, at home with the kids – make some for the pastor or a neighbor!

Isn’t that just fun? I used to make these in a ministry I was involved in – it was a different template that I couldn’t find, so I had to make a new one. Here’s a look at the back with the instruction panel.
My seed packet template might also be good for a Sunday School or VBS activity any time of year – print them out, have the children color and assemble them and fill them with “seeds” as their class assignment! It’s perfect for any lesson on hope, or Bible lesson on the story of Noah. The verse on the flap is from the end of Noah’s story:
I have set my rainbow in the clouds,
and it will be the sign of the covenant
between me and the earth.
Gen 9:13
Seed Packet Template
Download one or both of the templates and print them out on your printer at home. Be sure to print on paper compatible with your coloring medium, and test that your adhesive will hold the envelope closed before giving it to kids to assemble in Sunday School.
- Rainbow Seed Pack Template – with the design printed on the outside
- Seed Pack Template – Blank – no design or words on it at all, ready for you to decorate.
Let me know if you make one of my seed packet template treat envelopes – and how it was received!
2021 Additional Sample
In 2021 I’m “re-upping” old posts – and every Thursday sharing a #throwbackthursday highlighting a fun older post with a new sample! This time I made a new packet from the blank template, and stamped one of MFT’s brand new stamps on it – Wish You Were Hare. I airbrushed the background, added pink trees and bushes….just for lots of pink!
The assembly – fussycutting the template with detail scissors, adhering with scor tape – and Voila, fill ‘er up with sprinkles and tuck in a basket or inside a card!

Thanks for these templates, Sandy. I plan to send the Rainbow Seed Packets to a Church member who does so much with the children; and I also will use the plain pattern to create money pockets for my great-grandkids. I love your work, especially that done for the OWH and can’t tell you how much your appreciated by so many! I don’t blog, don’t have a website.
Love this! Thanks for the template! Your videos are wonderful and I have learned so much from you.

What a marvelous idea and I love that it has a scriptural verse. Thank you so much …this will make a wonderful cute idea for my Religious Ed kids.
I am always looking for a fun but Christian themed idea for my grandkids Easter cards and I just finished up their cards for this year a couple days ago but now I already have this great seed packet idea for next year! A few months ago I was absolutely thrilled when one of my grandsons (he is 12 now) pulled out a stack of cards I had given him over the years. I had no idea he liked the cards so much that he saves them. Thanks for the great idea Sandy!
Love this idea – thanks for the templates!
You are always thinking out of the box I love it. This one is a hit out of the park. Thanks for sharing.
