How about making this cheerful Easter chick card? It is simple and quick to make. Follow the illustrated instructions to see how easy it is.
You will need
- A4 green card
- A5 yellow card or paper
- Pink card
- Orange paper for the beak
- Black felt-tip pen
- A mug to draw around
- Pencil
- Glue
- Scissors
What you do
-
Draw around an upside-down mug on one end of the yellow card. Carefully cut out
the circle to make the chick’s body.
-
Draw another circle of the same size on pink card for the shell. Fold it exactly
in half and cut along the fold. Cut a zigzag edge across the straight side of one
half to make a broken shell.
-
Fold the remaining yellow paper in two and draw a wing shape. Cut through both
layers to make two matching wings. Draw and cut one smaller feather shape for the
top of the chick’s head.
-
Turn the shell and chick body over so the pencil lines cannot be seen. Glue the
shell to the body, carefully matching the curved edges.
-
Glue the wings and head feathers to the back of the body. Place the wings at the
sides just above the shell and the feathers in the centre at the top.
-
Draw two eyes with a black felt-tip pen. Cut out an orange beak and stick it to
the chick.
-
Write your Easter greeting near the top or bottom of the card. Glue the chick in
place without covering your writing, then leave it to dry before writing inside.
