Cupcake Liner Unicorn Card

I’ve combined TWO of my favorite things today into one great tutorial – paper baking liners and unicorns! Keep scrolling for our creative Cupcake Liner Unicorn kid craft idea!

Paper Cupcake Liner Unicorn - Kid Craft

Unicorn Card Made From White Cupcake Liner

Can I just have a moment and scream at myself {again} “WHY DID IT TAKE YOU SO LONG TO COME UP WITH THIS IDEA, STACEY?!”

Seriously! It’s mind boggling that I waited this long to come up with a unicorn kids craft idea like this.

I mean… I have taken cupcake liners and turned them into pancakes, llamas, sloths, robots and even tough cookies. But not unicorns?! This post seems like an emergency to me and has to be shared ASAP! I even did a quick Google search before I started writing this very blog post and nothing came up similar to what I’m sharing with you all today.

So on that note – Glued To My Crafts is the FIRST to bring this cupcake liner unicorn idea to life and on the internet. This just proves we are here to be different and the first. If this doesn’t scream “bookmark me now” I don’t know how else I can convince you!

Anyways – our Cupcake Liner Unicorn craft idea can be recreated just as is on a plain piece of paper or it can be turned into a handmade unicorn card {like my example pictures!}

You can find all the details below. Of course it’s super simple and the supplies are even easier! Happy crafting!

Cupcake Liner Unicorn Card

A cute and easy craft for kids. Using cupcake liners, you can create your own unicorn card!

Craft Supplies:

  • Large White Cupcake Liners
  • Choice of Colored Cardstock Paper
  • White Cardstock Paper
  • Gold Glitter Cardstock Paper
  • Paper Trimmer
  • Paper Craft Scissors
  • Glue Stick
  • Thick Tip Black Sharpie Marker
  • Craft Yarn
  • optional materials – embellishments like tiny craft bows

Directions:

  • If you are making a card, go ahead and make the base of that first. You just need to make sure your cupcake liner will fit to the front of the card.
  • If not making a card, just grab one large sheet of colored cardstock.
  • Now you are ready for the “unicorn” part. Because the white cupcake liner can be somewhat “thin” in color, go ahead and grab TWO per craft.
  • Grab each white cupcake liner and flatten them out with your fingers.
  • Put glue on the back of the first flattened cupcake liner and place it in the center of the card and/or plain paper.
  • Go ahead and glue the second white cupcake liner on top of the first.
  • Use your fingers to flatten out the cupcake liner some more and make sure it sticks to your paper.
  • Add more glue to the back of areas that aren’t sticking.
  • Next up – the embellishments. Grab all your remaining cardstock paper and scissors.
  • Cut out two small ears for the unicorn, as well as her large triangle horn.
  • Glue those in place on your paper.
  • Next go ahead and grab your yarn.
  • Cut off several short strands and tie them together to look like hair.
  • Secure that piece in place on the cupcake liner.
  • Now take your black marker and draw on some eyes & nostrils.
  • Add other embellishments if desired.
  • Now set aside your cupcake liner unicorn masterpieces to let them dry completely before gifting them away!

Make it your own:

  • Don’t have access to white cupcake liners? Unused coffee filters will work for this craft too!
  • Lacking the craft yarn? Ribbon scraps or baker’s twine will work for hair as well.
  • Every unicorn deserves some sparkle. Raid your craft stash to see how you can make your unicorn stand out from the crowd!
