If you’re planning a baskebtall themed girl’s birthday party, these will make for some fun party favors! Add some fun hair elastics to these cards and you’re all set!

You know what I mean when I say Basketball Hair, right? Sweaty, messy, scrunchie half falling out, hair plastered to your sweaty forehead…THOSE are the true signs of champions. And these hair tie cards can play a part in holding all that glorious sweaty hair in place 🙂
Yes, that’s all hand drawn
It’s from MeganHStudio, so you know those basketballs are hand drawn–that’s the only way I do things around here 😉 They’re free for your personal use. For more info about copyright and licensing, click here.

Easy Peasy Assembly
If you have a printer, scissors and some fold over elastics, you can pull off some fun basketball team gifts or party favors!
- Download the templates you want to use
- Print as many as you need (for personal use). I recommend printing on white cardstock (at least 110#).
- Use the elastic cutting guide on the side of the page to measure your hair elastics
- Cut out each card
- Tie the ends of each elastic in a knot and slip 1-2 over each card
Get the Look:
Readers often ask about where I get the materials to create my examples. Here are links to the specific products I used to create these samples.
- 110# White Cardstock for printing
- If your printer can handle thicker material, this 120# cardstock is even better 😉
- OnceUponATimeSupply is a shop on Etsy that has a ton of great printed hair elastics. I used this grab bag of basketball-themed fold over elastics for these samples. They aren’t an affiliate or anything–just an awesome shop!
- I’ve also used these solid color Fold Over Elastics for hair ties that arrive quickly from Amazon.

Printing Tips:
To get the size just right on these, be sure to select “Actual Size” in your print settings, otherwise they may print out slightly smaller.

Did you know I sell stuff too?
I specialize in fingerprint posters, signature posters, art prints and invitations. These are available for sale on Etsy and Amazon Handmade.
What’s a fingerprint poster?? I’m glad you asked! They’re a perfect way to commemorate guests at an event and also make great thank you gifts for teachers 😉 People add their fingerprint and sign their name on the artwork as a clever way to complete an element. Fingerprint trees are the most common–fingerprints are the added as leaves on the branches. And of course I have lots of great options for basketball-themed events!
