Step 1: Print out all the templates and cut around the shapes. The first two pages are the “large” flowers and the 3rd and 4th pages are the “medium flowers.”
Step 2. For the large center flower, we used 3 large flower shapes (to create one large one) stacked on top, and for the side flowers we used two medium flowers shapes. You can of course stack as many flower petals on top as you want, the more you stack the more dimensional the flowers look!
Step 3. Fold the petals once cut to give depth. Glue on top of another. For the center, curl with a popsicle stick and glue in the center. Watch the video below for these steps.
Step 4. Cut out your horn, eyes, and ear templates. Then use them to trace on white/black and glitter cardstock.
Step 5. Put your unicorn flower backdrop together! If you will be sticking this on a wall, you can add removable sticky tabs to keep in place.
