Paper Dragons!

Flame-breathing, ferocious, amazingly scaly creatures of the skies- DRAGONS!!

Let’s make Paper Dragons to light any day up in a blaze!

Check out the full video here:

These dragon sheets are available at Art and Happiness for your crafty needs! You can also pull any public domain dragon. Cut them out and get ready to make some fun stuff!

You could also doodle your very own dragon and make any of these crafts!

Try playing with dragons of every size, shape, and color!! I think Rainbow Dragons would be so fun to create!

Mobiles are so easy and fun to make! After creating an X shaped base, attach strings of dragons from every height!

The trick to making these balance is to hot glue a penny to each addition- this lets each dragon spin and twirl on its own!

Could you imagine making a Dragon Horde Mobile- flying through the sky with fire and clouds swirling around! You could even use some prisms and suncatchers to create rainbow lights!

Have a Cardboard Castle that needs to be guarded? Let’s build a Dragon!

You can use anything from cardboard to chipboard- so long as it’s sturdy enough to withstand a few layers of glue and paint!

Cut out shapes for the wings, body, legs, and fire! If you use brads as hinges you could have all these elements Move Independently!!

Here is a magical Dragon Shadowbox Card!

The very back panel has a window cut-out with a colored Vellum cover. When you place a tealight behind you can really feel the Dragons Fire!!

Dragons are such a magical creature to create with!!

Today we made a Dragon’s Horde Mobile, built a Cardboard Dragon fit to protect any paper castle, and a ShadowBox Card with a flickering-fire backdrop!

I hope these crafts have inspired you to think of the Endless Fun creating with Dragons can be!

Thanks for tuning in, crafty friends!!
