Craft Ideas: Balloon Elephant Card | Hands on Art & Craft - Class 1 PDF Download

Material Required

1.  Latex Balloons {one per elephant card}
2. Large Glue Dots
3. Colored Cardstock Paper
4. Craft Scissors
5. Glue Stick
6. Wiggle Eyes {set of two per elephant card} 
7. Optional materials – glitter, rhinestones, scrapbook stickers etc.

Directions to be followed

• First fold a single sheet of cardstock paper in half to create a card. Repeat for each card you want to make.
• Next grab your balloon {one per card} and use glue dots to secure it to the front of the card. This will create the head/trunk of the elephant {if glue dots don’t work – use tape or foam adhesive instead.}
• Once the balloon is secure to the card front, go ahead and grab your remaining cardstock. Cut out a set of ears to go on the sides of the balloon/elephant {a nice heart shape is great!} Go ahead and glue those to the card front.
• To finish off the Balloon Elephant Cards, use glue dots to secure some wiggle eyes to the front of the balloon. Then add other embellishments you see fit before gifting away proudly!!!
