These cupcake friends are simply adorable and EXTRA sweet! Perfect for spring and Easter!
Best part? No two will be “baked” the same. It’s whatever embellishment supplies {like glitter, cardstock, craft paint} you have on hand and how your child decides to “decorate” their piece.
I can tell you a million steps and the perfect way to do it – but ultimately, these cupcake friends can be made however you like! We just set up the framework for you in this tutorial and it’s our hope you run with it! Isn’t that what craft time is all about?
So on that note – for my Easter Egg Cupcake Friends, I used craft foam eggs from Michaels, colored cardstock, glitter glue, a glue stick and some large wiggle eyes to bring mine to life. You could also use buttons, rhinestones, scrapbook paper – whatever you have on hand already and might need to make a pretend cupcake piece.
The first step I would recommend, is making the cupcake “liner” first. I cut that out of brown cardstock and glued it on to the larger end of the craft foam egg. This allowed me to see where everything else should go.
Next I cut out some white “frosting” for the top of the egg. I glued that down and added a “cherry” heart sticker on top.
Finally – the last step is bringing it to life. I glued down the wiggle eyes and then drew on a smiley face with some markers.
For added sparkle and some dimension to m craft,, I drew lines of gold glitter glue on the cardstock cupcake liner. This really gave it that polished “cupcake” look.
Then set aside to let it dry completely, before displaying proudly!
