Sparkly Footprint Unicorn Craft

This sparkly footprint unicorn was so fun to make and turned out really cute! It makes a really fun keepsake of a baby's foot yet still fun for 6 year olds. Hang it up for display in their bedroom or place it in a scrapbook to look back at one day. You could also make this unicorn craft as part of a Fairytale preschool theme.

Footprint Unicorn Craft Instructions

Start by placing a white footprint in the center of the page. I think it looks best if placed on a slight tilt.

Next, paint on the white part of the hair and the horn Add  streaks of a second color paint if you'd like. You may even wish to make the horn striped.

Use glitter glue or glitter paint to add sparkly streaks to the hair. We also added glitter glue to the horn.

Optional: The corners of the construction paper were cut using decorative scissors giving it a nice frame when the white paper was placed behind it. Behind the white is a black sheet of cardstock cut to size.

    So cute! I might try this one. =) What kind of paint do you use? I normally use acrylics, and they are a lot more opaque. I like their solidness, however I really like how you can better see the prints on your crafts.
