Magical Mask Makers
Goal: Create a wearable, decorated mask.
Guide:
-
Design Your Mask: On a piece of cardstock (50 sheets included), draw the outline of your mask. Will it cover just the eyes, half the face, or the whole face? You can fold the card in half to draw one side and then cut it out for a symmetrical mask.
-
Cut the Shape: Carefully cut out your mask shape. Remember to cut out eye holes (and a mouth hole if desired). An adult might need to help with the eye holes, especially if using a knife (though scissors can also work by folding and snipping a starter hole).
-
Prime (Optional but Recommended): If you want bright, even colours, you can paint the entire mask with a coat of white Cadence Hybrid Acrylic Paint and let it dry.
-
Paint & Decorate: Use the DecoArt Americana Brights or other Cadence acrylic paints to colour your mask. Experiment with patterns, colours, and designs. Let your imagination go wild!
-
Add Details: Once the paint is dry, use Aleene's Clear Gel Tacky Glue to attach any extra decorative elements you might have (feathers, glitter, small fabric scraps, etc. – not included in this specific bundle but can be added).
-
Wear It! Attach elastic or ribbon (not included in this bundle) to the sides of the mask to wear it.
Bundle contains 1 x Cadence Black, 1 x Cadence White, 1 x Decoart 16x2oz, 1 x Aleenes Tacky Clear glue, 1 x 50x Craft UK card (brown), and 1 x Tulip 10 brushes.
