Cupcake Liner Scarecrow Craft Supplies:
- Tan/Brown Cupcake Liners {affiliate link}
- Pre-Made Cardstock Cards {mine were square}
- Colored Cardstock {I used white, brown, yellow and orange for my cards}
- Paper Craft Scissors
- Paper Trimmer
- Glue Stick
- Large Glue Dots
- Black Sharpie Marker
- Large Brown Buttons
- other embellishments like fall stickers, glitter, rhinestones etc.
Directions:
- First, if you aren’t using premade cards, go ahead and make your card & card front. I used my paper trimmer and went with a square card. You just need to make sure your tan cupcake liner will fit to the front of the card you make.
- Now you are ready for the “scarecrow” part. Grab your tan cupcake liner and flatten it out with your fingers.
- Put glue on the back of the flattened liner and place it in the center of the card.
- 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 colored cardstock and scissors.
- Cut out a simple hat shape for your scarecrow.
- Go ahead and secure that on place on your card.
- Next up – his eyes. Grab your buttons and glue dots.
- Secure TWO eyes in the center of the cupcake liner.
- Now grab your Sharpie marker.
- Draw on his “stitched up” mouth. Add a nose if you like, as well.
- Add any other embellishments, if desired.
- Now set aside your cupcake liner scarecrow card masterpieces to let them dry completely before gifting them away!
- Before you gift it away, be sure to snap some pictures to share with us! #gluedtomycrafts
