Let’s have some fun drawing a special St. Patrick’s Day cupcake! Grab your markers, paper, and coloring tools, and let’s get started on this creative adventure!
First, let’s draw the bottom part of the cupcake, called the wrapper. Draw a straight line across the middle of your paper. This will be the top of the wrapper. Then, draw two lines going down from the ends of the first line, making them come closer together as they go down. Connect these lines at the bottom with another line to finish the wrapper shape.
Now, let’s add some yummy frosting! Draw a wavy line on top of the wrapper. This line should look like ocean waves. Then, draw a big upside-down U shape above the wavy line to make the top of the frosting.
Time to make our cupcake festive! Draw a little leprechaun hat on the side of the cupcake. Use slanted lines to make the hat’s shape and add a square on top. Don’t forget to draw a belt around the hat!
Let’s add some shiny gold coins! Draw a part of a circle so it looks like it’s sitting in the frosting. To make it look 3D, add a curved line inside the circle. Draw lines coming out from the coin to make it look real.
For extra luck, draw a four-leaf clover on the coin. Start with an upside-down U shape for one leaf and repeat for the other three leaves, connecting them in the middle. Add a little stem at the bottom!
Sprinkles make everything better! Draw small rectangles all over the frosting. Make them point in different directions to look fun and random. Take your time to make your cupcake colorful!
Let’s give our cupcake a happy face! Draw two big circles for eyes and add smaller circles inside for sparkle. Below the eyes, draw a big smile with a U shape. Add little U shapes for teeth and a tongue.
Finally, let’s add a leprechaun beard! Draw a bunch of connected U shapes under the mouth to make a fluffy beard. This will give your cupcake lots of character!
Now that your cupcake is drawn, it’s time to color it! Use any colors you like or match the ones from the video. You can even add more decorations, like a rainbow or a leprechaun jumping out of the frosting!
Great job on your St. Patrick’s Day cupcake drawing! We hope you had a blast and enjoyed being creative. Share your artwork with friends and family, and have a happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Explore Cupcake Shapes: Go on a cupcake hunt in your kitchen or local bakery! Look at different cupcake wrappers and frosting shapes. Can you find a cupcake with a wavy frosting like the one you drew? Take a picture or draw it in your notebook. Think about how the shapes you see in real life are similar or different from the ones you drew.
Create a Cupcake Story: Imagine your cupcake comes to life! Write a short story about an adventure your cupcake might have on St. Patrick’s Day. What would it do with its leprechaun hat and gold coins? Share your story with a friend or family member and ask them what they think your cupcake might do next!
Color Mixing Experiment: Use your coloring tools to experiment with mixing colors. Try to create new shades for your cupcake’s frosting and decorations. What happens when you mix yellow and blue? How about red and white? Use these new colors to add unique touches to your cupcake drawing. Discuss with a friend or family member about your favorite color combinations and why you like them.
