A few tips
Round everything off
Cute comes from soft, round shapes. Swap corners for curves, and make the head big compared to the body.
A small face, low on the head
Put the eyes far apart and low, with a tiny mouth between them. That one trick makes almost anything cute.
Add blush and shine
Two pink ovals on the cheeks and a white dot in each eye bring a drawing to life.
Keep the details few
A cute drawing needs very little. Stop before you add texture, and let the shape do the work.
