Craft Supplies:

Directions:

First things first – print the mini earth template out on some white cardstock paper.
Trim out ONE earth design per flower. Use paint crayons {or regular crayons} to color in the design.
Now grab the green cardstock paper and cut out one small flower petal shape.
Set aside both paper pieces till later.
Next up – grab the green craft paint, the small paper plate, paint brush and ONE jumbo popsicle stick.
Squirt a small amount of craft paint on the small paper plate.
Use the paint brush to paint ONE side of jumbo popsicle stick, completely green.
Set it aside to let it dry completely.
Now grab THREE cupcake liners and your scissors.
Flatten each white cupcake liner out with your hands and stack them together, one on top each other.
Use the scissors to cut a “fringe” around the edge of the stacked cupcake liners.
Go ahead and use your fingers to curl some of your cuts, to give your flower some dimension.
Now you will want to secure the liners together with a little bit of school glue in the center of each.
We are heading towards the last steps! Finally – glue the stacked cupcake liners to one end of the painted popsicle stick from earlier.
Follow that up by gluing on the earth shape in the center of the cupcake liners, while gluing the petal shape on the other end of the stick.
Set aside to let it dry completely.
Then display/gift away your cupcake liner daisy flowers proudly!
