Crafts are perfect when done with our own hands and are intended to be an idea to give away. Are butterflies They have a very special shape and a lollipops so you can be part of a very sweet gift. Discover how to make them step by step with our particular video and you will see how easy they are to make.
The materials I have used for the butterflies:
- Two pieces of decorative cardboard with floral motifs.
- A piece of red cardboard.
- A piece of pink cardboard.
- A piece of cardstock with gold glitter.
- Two lollipops.
- Red tissue paper.
- A half-meter piece of decorative rope with some shade of red.
- Hot silicone with his gun.
- A pencil.
- A sheet of white paper.
You can see this craft step by step in the following video:
First step:
We use lollipops to be able to draw the wings that will be placed on the sides. More or less we will need a cardboard of 15 x 15 cm, but first we will use a sheet of paper to make a butterfly with the same or homogeneous wings. We take the sheet and fold it. On the side that we have folded or the fold is (not the open part) we place the lollipop and begin to draw the wing.
Second step:
We cut out the part we have drawn the wing. When unfolding the wing we will observe that we have made a perfect butterfly. Now we have a template and we will use it as a tracing for the decorative cardboard with floral motifs. This type of cardboard usually has a white underside. I have turned the cardboard and I have put the template of the butterfly. With the pen I have been doing the tracing. Then I cut them out.
Third step:
We take the butterfly from the decorative cardboard and place it on top of red cardboard. The nice thing about this step is that we make a tracing again, but this time leaving a periphery or a border of almost 1 cm. We will also do it with the pink cardboard and cut it out.
Fourth step:
We take the piece of red tissue paper and we wrap the lollipops. Then we tie it with the decorative rope. It looks good if you wrap it several times (3 or 4) and then tie a knot.
Fifth step:
We make a heart. So that it does not come out perfect, we repeat the technique of folding a white sheet of paper. We fold the sheet and draw half a heart on the edge where we have folded (not the open part). We cut, we open and we can already see that we have a perfect heart left. Since we already have a template, we transfer the heart as a tracing on gold glitter cardstock. We make two and cut them out.
Step Six:
With the hot silicone we stick all the elements. We will begin gluing the butterflies that we have cropped and overexposed. Then we will paste the details like the hearts and lollipops.
