Card Holder Trio

You're sure to get a jungle's worth of Valentines with these three card holders.


Feed Valentine cards to these hungry critters.

What You Need:
  • Acrylic paints
  • Construction paper
  • Square tissue box
  • Paper tube for giraffe neck
  • Crafts glue

Instructions:

1. Paint. For each animal, paint empty tissue box with a base coat of white paint. Let dry. Using bright colors, paint legs on each corner of box. Paint box sides and top with designs (see photo).

2. Cut. Cut out heads, ears, trunk, and tails using photos as your guide.

3. Glue. Glue animal features onto boxes.

Note: For neck and head of giraffe, paint cardboard tube with a base coat of white paint. Let dry and then paint a design to match the body. Let dry. Cut bottom of tube to fit over the box edge. Cut off top of tube at an angle so head doesn't tilt up.
