Making a Handprint Monster Birthday Card

Total Time: 20 minutes

Yield: 1 card

Supplies:

• construction paper
• scissors
• gel pen/pen
• googly eyes
• glue stick
• pom pom

Steps:

1. Fold a piece of construction paper in half. (It needs to be big enough to trace your child's hand)

 

 
2. On the folded seam, trace your child's hand. Have them spread their fingers a bit.

 

 
3. Cut the handprint shape out to create the card.

 
4. It is time to design your "monster" themed card. I cut out 2 triangles (1 large triangle for a party hat and 1 smaller triangle for a tooth). You will also need 3 googly eyes.

5. Draw a smile with a gel pen and glue down the pieces to your desired liking on the card to create your monster.

 

 
6. For finishing touches, glue down a pom pom on the party hat. Then, you are ready to write inside the card.
