We love a good craft tutorial and today we are sharing with you an adorable paper seashell angel craft idea! These paper angels would be perfect for your Christmas or Valentine’s Day celebrations. Let’s get crafting!
Craft Supplies:
- Seashell Printable – on our landing page
- White Cardstock Paper
- Crayons, Pencils, Markers etc.
- Craft Scissors
- Colored Cardstock Paper
- Skin Tone Cardstock Paper
- Red or White Heart Shaped Paper Doilies
- Gold Pipe Cleaner
- Adhesive
- Stapler
- Embellishments
Directions:
- First things first – grab our free seashell printable, listed above in the supply list.
- Next, go ahead and find it on your computer, right click and print the file on a single sheet of white cardstock. One print equals one angel craft.
- Now that you have the printable, go ahead and color in the seashell design, however you like.
- When done coloring in the piece, use your craft scissors to trim it out.
- Now grab a single sheet of colored paper and your choice of adhesive.
- Glue the colored in seashell piece to the center of the colored paper.
- Now it’s time to give it the look of a angel! Start off by cutting out a head shape from your skin tone colored cardstock paper and drawing on hair/eyes/lips etc. on it.
- Go ahead and now glue the decorated head shape to the seashell design.
- Follow that up by gluing on the two doily shaped wings.
- To finish it off, cut the gold pipe cleaner in half and bend one of them into a halo shape. Staple it to your paper design.
- Add any other embellishments you see fit.
- Then allow your piece to dry completely before you display your custom one-of-a-kind seashell angel piece proudly for all to see!
Customize It:
- Instead of printing the free seashell file I’ve provided above on a simple sheet of white cardstock, swap it out for colored paper instead and take out the “coloring in” step listed above.
- Don’t feel limited by my choice of colors that I used as an example in this tutorial. I went with shades of red, pink and purple but who says you have to. You can also change up the colors for a Christmas angel theme if you like!
- Don’t have a printer at home? No worries my friends! Just hand-draw and cut out your own seashell shape from cardstock paper. You can also use a Cricut machine instead!
