DIY - How to Make - 7 Paper Crafts _ Food Stuff

What's up y'all today ?

We are going to make some stuff .

I don't really know what yet .

We're just gonna figure it out as we go think of it as a crafting adventure .

I have some scraps of card stock .

Maybe we can do something with this .

I have a cream color , a light brown , a darker brown and a white .

I use my paper cutter to cut the card stock into half inch squares and you don't need a paper cutter for this .

You could always just use a ruler and a pair of scissors .

Now we're gonna stack them .

I'm gonna start with the dark brown square .

Just one then place a light brown on top .

Let's do maybe three then another dark brown .

I don't know .

I think we're gonna need some more light brown in there .

Now we have six .

I think that's better .

Now , let's do six layers of the cream followed by another dark brown and six light brown .

More cream .

Let's add more to the cream .

So let's go with eight cream .

So it's nice and thick .

I'm gonna add some more to the center as well .

Maybe two layers of white and then another dark brown that looks pretty good .

So it should go dark brown , light brown , dark brown , cream , dark brown , light brown , dark brown , cream , white , dark brown .

Use a glue stick to stack and glue them together to make a little paper , tear masse .

I want to get rid of some of those lines .

So I'm using a dotting tool .

I bought this one at the dollar tree .

I add a little glue to the sides .

Then a little water and use the dotting tool to just kind of mush the paper around .

I really just want a lot of good texture .

So this is like the cake part , you know where it's made of like the lady fingers and then here is the cream .

So I'm doing longer lines here .

So it looks a little smoother and let's add some texture to the top .

Then a little gloss mod podge and I added a little brown paint just to make the cake part in the center a little lighter .

Then allow it to dry while waiting .

I made a printable with some paper plates .

Cut them out .

I have one with a my froggy stuff logo and a blank one .

I'm gonna glue these back to back , place it on a circle stencil that is slightly smaller than the paper plate .

If you do not have a stencil , you can always make one using bottle caps and paperboard , trace the plate onto a piece of paperboard .

Repeat to make more trace a smaller circle on top .

I'm using a plastic bottle top , cut out the center of all of them , but one then cut out the larger circles .

I left the last one square glue , the smaller circles or rings on top to make a way to shape the plates , place the paper plate on top , then push down to make an invention in the paper .

And the dotting tool really helps with this .

I do have to be careful not to rip the paper .

But when we remove it , now we have a little paper plate .

This works pretty much the same with the stencil .

I do like the stencil butter .

I bought the stencil at Michael's and now we have little paper plates where we can put the terra masse on top for the dolls to enjoy on that printable .

We also included a few cups .

I use a little acrylic paint to paint directly onto the printable .

Going around the little logo .

I use a little white paint to paint , ice at the top .

Then I use my dotting tool and a little black paint to make little dots at the bottom .

We can try mixing different colors .

I'm doing different shades of brown .

Then I add the little dots .

I didn't paint the whole thing .

Only the parts that I think will be visible , cut them out .

Then I take the end of a paintbrush and we're just going to roll the paper around it to form the cup , then remove it and just spend a little time moving the paper to just the right spot to make the cup use glue to secure the ends .

I use the paintbrush to kind of help and keep the shape .

Now we have a little empty paper cup , place the bottom on a scrap of paper and I fill the cup with hot glue all the way up to the top .

We're just gonna use the hot glue to help keep the shape .

There we go .

Hot glue is hot .

So be careful when you're rolling your cup , make sure you start at the end opposite of the label .

That way this is what's gonna be on the inside .

And then our pretty little picture with the label will be facing out .

These are pretty easy to make , let's try a few solid colors without the ice .

So we have a little variety once the glue cools and dries cut off the excess paper , take clear tape , wrap it around the cup , trim off the excess .

And now our cup is shiny , cut out the lid and I like to leave just a little bit extra on the edge .

Take a large coated paper clip , cut off a small piece .

I pull the metal out a little bit on one end .

So the other side appears to be hollow glue , the paper clip piece into the cup , make a hole in the center of the lid , slide it over the straw and glue in place , fold that little excess paper over the edge to make tea for the dolls .

Place the boba tea next to the Terra Mao .

And we have a whole look here over the holidays on Instagram .

I was having fun with paper crafts .

One that I I did required card stock , a brown color pencil and a circle hole punch .

Use the whole punch to cut out several holes stack and glue them together .

I'm using a glue stick to glue all of the layers together .

This is 20 layers .

Add a little water to the top , then use the dotting tool to add some texture just on the top .

Once dried , lightly color the top with a color pencil to make flaky biscuits .

I have a few leftover circles for our next project .

I'm gonna use the color pencil and just brown the edges of the circles fading to the lighter color on the center .

Take a toothpick or a small bamboo skewer wrap the circle around it just fold it right around the edge and a little bit of glue and glue .

Those ends together .

I hold it for a few minutes while it dries , remove the bamboo skewer or toothpick , then press it into the center of the back .

I'm gonna try to be right in the middle so we can bend it in half .

Here we go to make a teeny tiny fortune cookie .

This is very small .

I think we might want to make it a tiny bit larger .

It is a nice size for gro go hair .

Adorable and calico critters .

But I want them just a little larger .

So on a scrap of card stock , trace around a marker cap .

Go ahead and add some shading that looks pretty good .

Cut them out .

I'm using a larger bamboo skewer to curl it around to make a bigger cookie with a whole bunch on a little plate .

They look pretty cool .

Let's make another little paper dessert .

I've seen this one all over Pinterest and on Instagram it's a little strawberry cake cut more half inch by half inch squares .

I have white and cream starting with the cream .

I stack and glue together eight squares .

Make two , then stack and glue the white squares in between .

Let's add a little water , smooth out the white and add texture to the cream color .

I got it as smooth as I could add a few layers of white on top .

I'm using a heart shaped hole punch on red paper .

I have red , white and pink craft paint .

I'm using a sewing pin to hold it down .

Then add a little bit of red paint just to the edges and then we're gonna add a little bit of pink and kind of just mush those together .

I need a little bit more red here .

Then let's take a little touch of white and go right up the center and then kind of just make little means that go out to the sides if you can .

If not just do a white line to make little strawberry slices , glue them onto the white part .

I put two on the sides and two on top .

Add mod podge for a little shine .

I punched out a few white hearts then cut them in half on a whole heart .

I glue on a few of those cut pieces to make some decorative frosting to glue on top to make strawberry cake .

I have some extra Boity printable left over paint , the bottom cream , cut it out , wrap it around the paintbrush to make a small cup thin .

When we flip it over , it has like kind of the shape of flan .

However , I'm thinking this is just a little too tall .

So I'm just trimming it down a little , the bottom is slightly larger than the top .

We are going to lay it .

So the top is faced down on a piece of paper and we're gonna glue that in place .

Then fill it with the hot glue trim off the excess paper .

Touch up the paint .

I mix together a little brown paint and mod podge add the mixture to the top .

That was totally the wrong color .

Let's go with this .

It's more like a dark caramel orange , then cover the whole thing with a thick layer of mod podge and allow it to dry while waiting let's give our little candy shop display case a makeover .

This is another paper craft .

We used paperboard to make it and then use clear plastic from packaging .

Let's remove the scrapbook paper and the shelves paint it a new color .

I'm going with black .

It crackled a little at the bottom because of the glue .

So I'm gonna cover it with some black card stock to clean it up , trim it with more black paper .

Take the clear shelves , trim them with coffee stirs to make them a little more stable .

Let's add a tiny bit of silver paper across the bottom giving our display case a whole new look so we can place our flan which is still drying on one of the plates .

Then place it in our newly renovated display case along with some of our other paper , food items like our chocolate chip cookies , cinnamon rolls and cheesecake place the boba tea on top and our dolls have a sweet spot to get a snack .

I love making food out of paper and it was so much fun to give our display case a little makeover .

So we made boba tea plates , strawberry cake , biscuits and fortune cookies giving us seven crafts .

I'm not counting the makeover so I can stay in line with my series .

Come on y'all .
