Directions:
- First make your card and card front. I went with a square card. You just need to make sure your cupcake liner will fit to the front of the card.
- Now you are ready for the “llama” part. Grab your tan cupcake liner and flatten it out with your fingers.
- Put glue on the back of the flattened cupcake liner and place it in the center of the card you made earlier.
- Use your fingers to flatten out the cupcake liner some more and make sure it sticks to the card.
- Add more glue to the back of areas that aren’t sticking to the card.
- Next up – the embellishments. Grab all your remaining cardstock paper and scissors.
- Cut out ears, the llama’s nose, hair etc. from the cardstock.
- Go ahead and glue those to the card front.
- Now take your black marker and draw on eyes.
- Finally, take the pom pom ribbon and cut off a small piece.
- Use the school glue to secure it in face on the llama’s hair.
- Add other embellishments if desired.
- Now set aside your cupcake liner llama card masterpieces to let them dry completely before gifting them away!
