How to Draw a Scary Cupcake: A Fun Art Tutorial

Hello, art friends! Today, we’re going to have some fun by drawing a cupcake that starts off looking cute but turns into something scary when you open it up. Let’s get our art supplies ready and start this exciting project!

Supplies Needed

Before we start, make sure you have these supplies:

  • Paper
  • Markers
  • Something to color with (like colored pencils or crayons)

Step 1: Folding the Paper

We need to fold our paper to make the surprise work. Here’s how:

  1. Fold the top of your paper down to the bottom and press it in the middle.
  2. Fold the top flap back up to the top and press it again.
  3. Flip the paper over and do the same fold again.
  4. Unfold the flap and flatten it out.

Now our paper is ready, let’s start drawing!

Step 2: Drawing the Cute Cupcake

Let’s draw the cute part of our cupcake:

  1. Draw a bumpy line for the bottom of the cupcake frosting.
  2. Make the cupcake wrapper by drawing two lines that come down and get closer at the bottom. Connect them with a curved line.
  3. Add some lines to the wrapper for texture.
  4. Continue the bumpy line for the top of the cupcake and connect it across the top.
  5. Add fun details like a unicorn horn or wings if you want!
  6. Draw two circles for eyes, add highlights, and color them in, leaving a small white circle for sparkle.
  7. Draw a happy mouth and add sprinkles or hearts to make it extra cute.

Step 3: Unfolding for the Scary Surprise

Now, let’s make it scary! Unfold your paper to reveal the hidden part:

  1. Draw a big, wide mouth with bumpy lines.
  2. Add sharp teeth by drawing tall, curvy shapes like “M” and “W” for the top and bottom teeth.
  3. Draw a split tongue coming out of the mouth, curving it for a cool look.
  4. Connect the top of the mouth with more bumpy lines.
  5. Add more scary teeth and details inside the mouth.

Step 4: Adding Final Touches

Let’s make our cupcake monster even cooler:

  1. Draw arms or wings with sharp claws coming out of the cupcake.
  2. Add texture lines, extra horns, or sprinkles to make it scarier.
  3. Keep everything below the fold line so it stays hidden when folded.

Step 5: Coloring Your Creation

Now it’s time to color your cupcake monster! Use any colors you like. You can make it look like a real cupcake or use all the colors of the rainbow. Have fun with it!

Feel free to pause and take your time to color it just the way you want.

Conclusion

Great job! You’ve drawn a cupcake that’s both cute and scary. This project is a fun way to use your imagination and enjoy art. Don’t forget to share your awesome creations and keep having fun with drawing. Happy creating, and we hope to see you for more exciting art projects!

  • What was your favorite part about drawing the cupcake? Did you like making it cute or scary more, and why?
  • Can you think of other things that start off looking cute but could become scary with a little imagination? What would you draw?
  • Have you ever seen something in real life that surprised you by changing in a way you didn’t expect? How did it make you feel?
  • Monster Cupcake Storytime: After drawing your scary cupcake, create a short story about it. What is its name? Where does it live? Does it have any friends? Share your story with a family member or friend, and ask them to come up with their own cupcake monster story. This will help you think creatively and use your imagination!

  • Color Mixing Experiment: Use your colored pencils or crayons to mix colors and create new shades for your cupcake. Try combining two colors to see what new color you can make. For example, what happens when you mix blue and yellow? Use these new colors to add unique details to your cupcake. This activity will help you learn about colors and how they work together.

  • Real-Life Cupcake Observation: Next time you have a cupcake, take a moment to observe its details. Look at the frosting, the wrapper, and any decorations. How does it compare to your drawing? Try drawing a real cupcake and then add your own scary twist to it. This will help you practice observing details and applying them to your art.
