These cute cupcake liner angels are easy to make with our free template. These heavenly angels are a perfect craft for kids and adults.

Two handmade paper angel crafts with cupcake liner dresses, one pink and one blue, both with gold headbands, on a light wooden surface.

We have used these angels as Christmas tree decorations. Just add a hanger to the back to hand on a tree or garland.

They are also perfect as gift toppers or to use on the front of handmade cards.

DIY Cupcake Liner Angel

Supplies

  • Free Angel Template
  • Construction paper (different colors for hair, head, halo)
  • Cupcake liner
  • Scissors
  • Craft glue
  • Markers (black and pink)

Instructions

Step 1

Trace the angel template patterns on craft papers and cut out.

Paper cutouts arranged on a white surface: a blue polka-dot cupcake liner, a round beige piece, a brown hair shape, and a small yellow strip.

Step 2

Glue the hair cutout onto the top of the head, then glue the halo to the top of the hair.

Step 3

Using markers, draw eyes, a nose, mouth and cheeks as seen in the photo below.

Step 4

Cut the cupcake liner in half.

Fold one of the halves in half.

Two blue paper cupcake liners with white polka dots are folded in half and placed on a white surface, one intact and one with a quarter section cut out.

Step 5

Glue the pointed, narrow end of the folded cupcake liner to the back side of the head towards the bottom of the face.

Step 6

Take the other half of the liner and cut a slit halfway in, along the middle (from the round outer edge).

A blue paper cupcake liner with white polka dots is folded in half on a white surface; part of a paper cutout with a face is visible in the upper right corner.

Then fold in the 2 sides of the slit.

A light blue, polka-dotted cupcake liner is folded and placed on a white surface, with a partial illustration of a face visible in the corner.

Step 7

Glue the wings to the back of the angel.
