Step 3:Using a ruler as a guide, take the rounded end of a paper clip (or a ballpoint pen that has run out of ink) and press along the dotted lines of the bird house pieces.
|
Step 4:Do the same thing along the dotted line of the birdhouse card.
|
Step 5:Using the pointed end of a pair of scissors (ask an adult for help for with this) poke a hole through the large circle in the center of the bird house.
|
Step 9:Take the bird piece and...
|
Step 10:...flip it completely over so you can't see the dotted lines anymore (we're doing this so the dotted lines won't be so visible in the finished pop-up).
|
Step 11:Grip the bird piece with both hands and fold it back along the center score, right under the bird's tail.
|
Step 21:After the glue has dried begin to slowly close the card. Notice that the birds begins to curve back into the card. If the bird needs a little help curving back into the card use your finger to assist it.
|
Step 22:Open the card again. Apply glue to the flat area to the left of the bird, making sure you don't get any glue on the bird or its tail!
|
Step 23:Take the bird house piece and carefully line it up with the bottom of the piece you just applied glue to (as shown by the red arrow above). Let the glue dry!
