Pop-Up Witch Card

Why

Surprise! Whether it's a witch, black cat, or ghost, these cards will be pop-ular with family and friends.

Steps

1. Fold construction paper to form your card. Make creative folds to add to the mystery. Decorate the front with a Halloween theme using Crayola® Colored Pencils.

2. On white paper, draw and color a witch or other Halloween character. Cut it out with Crayola Scissors.

3. Cut a strip of paper about as long and wide as your finger. Fold it back and forth to make accordion pleats. With a Crayola Glue Stick, attach the strip to the back of the witch and the inside of your card. Add a Halloween greeting.

Safety Guidelines

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.

Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.
