Materials
To create your lollipop butterfly card, you'll need the following materials:
- Lollipop (any flavor/color)
- Colored craft paper or cardstock
- Scissors
- Glue or double-sided tape
- Markers, stickers, or embellishments (optional for decoration)
- Hole punch or sharp tool (to make a hole for the lollipop stick)
- Ribbon or string (optional, to tie around the stick)
Steps
Follow these easy steps to make your very own lollipop butterfly card:
- Create the butterfly wings: Cut two symmetrical butterfly wing shapes out of colored craft paper or cardstock. Decorate these wings with markers, stickers, or glitter to make them vibrant.
- Attach the wings to the lollipop: Make a small hole in the center of each wing to insert the lollipop stick. Slide the wings onto the lollipop stick so they sit just below the candy. Use glue or tape to secure the wings if needed.
- Add details: Draw antennae on the card or wings with markers or glue on extra paper shapes.
- Make the card: Fold a piece of cardstock to make a card base. Attach the lollipop butterfly to the front using glue or tape, or insert the lollipop stick through a punched hole in the card for stability.
- Optional finishing touches: Tie a ribbon around the stick for extra charm, or write a message inside the card.
Variations
Some tutorials suggest folding the card into a triangle and inserting the lollipop stick into a hole before tying it for neatness. You can customize the style based on your preference and the materials you have at hand.
