First cut eight mini cupcake papers in half. Glue one of the cake wrappers to the black cardstock, towards the top, with the rounded curve pointing to the left side of the page, which is where the dragon body begins. Continue pasting to form the dragon body.

Then make the faucet. You will need two cupcake wrappers, cut one in half (discard the other half) and fold the other cupcake wrapper in half. Cut off the sides of these two pieces (see photo below). Glue the two pieces together to make the faucet, making sure the folded part is at the bottom of the face.
