This past weekend Pokemon GO released the first of the legendary Pokemon, including Team Mystic mascot Articuno. Articuno is my favorite legendary bird, so I knew I had to make some craft to mark this event. These earrings are made from cardstock, so they're not the most durable, but they're great for a costume or party favor.
Materials:
*Light blue cardstock
*Dark blue cardstock
*Ear wires
*All purpose adhesive
*Pencil
*Coin (I used a half dollar, but my earrings are pretty large, so you may want to use a smaller coin)
*Scissors
*Needle
Directions:
*Using the template below, cut out two Articuno shapes from the lighter blue cardstock. This will work a lot better if you have a Silhouette CAMEO or other die cutting machine, but you could cut and trace.
*Trace your coin onto the darker blue cardstock to create two circle shapes.
*Cut out the circle shapes and glue the Articuno silhouettes to the circles.
*Use a needle to poke a hole in the top of each of the circles.
*Slide the ear wires through the holes.
