This cute flower picture is perfect for kids to make using just mini cupcake liners and buttons. Ideal for making a gorgeous Mother's Day picture or card, to celebrate spring, or just to give to someone you love at any time of year, this cute craft activity is easy for kids to make with minimal supervision, although younger ones and toddlers will need more supervision and support.
Our girls love to make this easy cupcake liner flower craft and have made them for friends and neighbours this spring. This baking cup button flower craft is also perfect if you are looking for a last minute Mother's Day flower craft the kids can make for mum.
Choose pastel coloured or floral pattern mini cupcake liner and add a similar or contrasting colour button to the centre of each to make a pretty flower. Repeat to make a bunch of flowers, then draw in stems and add a cute satin ribbon bow to the bunch of flowers.
You can use any coloured card, although we have used yellow here as it is such a bright spring colour to match this spring flower craft. You could even apply the craft to a canvas to put on the wall. It would look beautiful in baby's nursery or in a playroom.
