Greetings community, today I am here again with a craft that I wanted to share with you its creation. It is a mask alluding to a flower that is the sunflower, I bring you this one taking advantage that it is carnival.

It is a good time to dress up and wear a nice mask to be in tune with the celebration that takes place every year or you can do it for another event.

This craft is easy to make, read the step by step.

• Cardboard.
• Compass.
• Gold-colored frosted cardboard.
• Pink, red, black and white construction paper.
• Pink pearls.
• Black marker.
• Ruler.
• Pencil.
• Silicone gun.
• Scissors.
• Silicone stick.
• Brown frosted Foami.
• Rubber band.
• Hole punch.

On a piece of cardboard, make a circle of 15 centimeters and another of 18 centimeters. I should note that the size of the circle will vary depending on the size of the head of the child or adult.

So the size of the circle is the right size for my daughter who is going to wear it.

The circumference is cut with the scissors on the inside and outside as shown in the image. The result is as follows.

Then you fold the circumference in half to have a guide to mark with the pencil a point at both ends. With the hole punch, you open the holes.

An elastic band is placed through each hole to hold the mask to the girl's head. This is glued with hot silicone and reinforced so that it is strong and resistant and the elastic band does not come off.

Once the base where the petals will be added is ready, the petal mold is made in the cardboard with a 6 centimeters base and 10 centimeters height. We proceed to cut the petals in this way.

Mark the 11 petals to be used on the front side of the frosted cardboard with the petal mold, cut them out and glue them to the base, covering them with petals.

The sunflower is turned over at the back and where there is space, petals are placed to fill the flower, the same amount as at the front.

You can see how the sunflower is covered with petals on the front and back. To make the sunflower more attractive, I am going to make the pollen where the insects will land.

From the brown frosted foami I cut two strips of 28 centimeters long by three centimeters wide, each one, with the scissors. I began to cut thin strands making the similarity of a comb, I reached the end of the foami strip and passed it through the hot iron, obtaining a special shape.

The foami strip was glued to the mask, leaving the sunflower with its pollen ready.

Finally, I will make two butterfly insects and a ladybug to embellish the mask. On a sheet of pink construction paper I cut a strip of 4 centimeters by 12 centimeters.

Fold the rectangle in half and continue folding it in half and draw half of the butterfly silhouette on it.

Carefully cut out two butterflies, one of them I cut off the butterfly's antennae and glued it on top of the other.

I represented the body of the butterfly with five pink beads, and glued them with hot silicone. This is how the butterfly turned out, I made another one with the same procedure.

The ladybug is made with a sheet of red construction paper, mark four circles of 3.5 centimeters in diameter. They are cut out, three circles are folded in half and glued, then the whole circle is glued and serves as a base.

The head of the ladybug was made with black cardboard, the size was 2.5 centimeters in diameter, it was glued to the body. Black dots characteristic of its anatomy were made on its wings, and white construction paper was used for the eyes.

We used a hole puncher to open holes and marked both eyes with a black marker.

Once the insects were ready, I glued them to decorate the mask in the shape of a sunflower, which finally looked like this. This is what my daughter's mask looks like.
