Top 5 Items to Create Using Strawberry Shortcake Coloring Pages
You can turn Strawberry Shortcake coloring pages into lovely accessories and decorative pieces. My daughter loves these characters, so she was happy to work on the simple projects I suggested.
DIY Collages
It’s one of the most entertaining activities for a family gathering. Youngsters love such tasks. They can express their inner world and tell others about the things they like. Cut out paper figures from the Strawberry Shortcake coloring pages you have completed. It’s better to add multiple protagonists to the collage to create a balanced composition. Find other visually appealing elements in magazines or vintage postcards. Look for flowers, vehicles, animals, and other details you can use.
Tell your kid to arrange these details on the page. Experiment with different layouts to find the one that looks most appealing. Glue the paper figures to the collage. Fill the empty space with patterns and drawings. Use glitter to highlight specific areas. When everything is ready, hang the collage in the living room. The youngest generation of your family will feel proud when they see their artwork displayed for everyone to see.
Greeting Cards
Custom-made postcards will make your greetings more unique. You can use them to send warm wishes before holidays and congratulate your relatives on their birthdays. Strawberry Shortcake coloring pages are especially suitable for such projects. They do not require any extra embellishments. Print them on the half of the A5 page and fold it so that they serve as the front cover. Alternatively, you may cut out the main protagonist from them and glue them to a postcard template.
Use quality pencils and markers to make the hues brighter. Once, we decided to glue a paper figure inside the postcard to make it pop up when a person opens it. Decorate the inside with simple drawings and write your heartfelt wishes. Such items will perfectly complement any gift and show the recipient that you truly care about them. Moreover, they look lovely and have an uplifting effect.
Bookmarks
Is your child a fan of reading? Whether they prefer fairy tales or other bedtime stories, they will love using a custom bookmark. Print Strawberry Shortcake coloring pages in a small size, fill the outlines with various hues, and cut out the figures of the main character. The cut-outs should fit on the rectangular bookmark template. Find full-body pics. Use a long strip of paper that fits inside the book nicely. If you make the illustrations significantly smaller, you can glue multiple characters to the bookmark.
This task does not take long to complete. You can complicate it a bit if you decide to decorate the bookmark by adding extra elements. Punch a hole at the top and insert a colorful ribbon. Glue some glitter to the surface of the bookmark. It will make your child’s reading experience more entertaining. Moreover, it will be easier for them to remember the page where they stopped.
Magnets
The cutouts from Strawberry Shortcake coloring pages look great on all sorts of accessories used for decoration purposes, including fridge magnets. For this craft, use the head of the protagonist or a diminished picture. I also use decorative glass stones to give such items a magical feel. They are sold at many craft stores. After completing the pages, cut out the details you want to display on the magnets. Cover them with Mod Podge carefully and attach them to the bottom of a large glass stone.
When the item dries out completely, glue a magnet to the bottom. If you don’t have glass stones, glue the illustrations to a piece of cardboard. Such fridge accessories won’t take you longer than 15 minutes to create. Use them to decorate your fridge.
Keychains
Print adorable Strawberry Shortcake coloring pages on shrink sheets. When youngsters fill them in with hues, cut out the elements they want to use. Punch a hole at the top to attach keychain hardware later. Bake the cutouts according to the instructions and wait until they cool completely. Attach the keychain piece. You will create lovely items that can be used as small, thoughtful gifts for friends and grandparents.
My daughter wears such a keychain on her backpack. This practical accessory looks cute and allows her to tell others more about her favorite character. She created such pieces for her friends when they started to ask her where she bought them.
