Directions:
- First things first – print out the blank SUNGLASSES printable, listed above, on your choice of colored cardstock paper. One print gives you TWO cutouts to use.
- Using your scissors, cut out one of the sunglass shapes from the printable. Set it aside.
- Next up – grab your yellow cupcake liner, the glue stick and a sheet of dark blue cardstock paper.
- Flatten out the cupcake liner with your hands and glue it down in the center of the blue paper.
- Next squirt some yellow craft paint on the small paper plate.
- Go ahead and dip the plastic fork in the paint.
- Now take the paint covered fork and use it as a paint brush to “paint” rays coming out of the yellow cupcake liner.
- When done adding the yellow fork prints, shake some loose craft glitter on top of the wet paint for some dimension and extra sparkle.
- Finally – the last step of this fork painted sun craft is to glue the sunglasses you cut out earlier, in place, as well as drawing on a simple smile underneath.
- At this point in time you can add other embellishments you see fit.
- When done decorating the paper, set it aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
