How to Make

1. To make a body, cut a piece of white card 8cm x 15cm. Trim thin triangles from the length of the card on both sides to make a sloping shape. Place the card body onto a piece of self-adhesive felt (on the backing paper side) then draw around it to make a matching shape. Cut it out and put to one side for Step 6.
2. To make a face, cut out an oval 5cm in length from flesh tone card. Cut out pieces of card for hair, nose and mouth then glue them onto the face with wiggle eyes. Use a cocktail stick to apply glue on small pieces of card. Cut out 2 hands and 2 feet from flesh tone card.
3. Cut a pipe cleaner (any colour) into 3 x 10cm pieces. Bend one pipe cleaner piece in half then tape it at the top of the card body shape as the neck.To make arms, bend over 1cm at the ends on the 2 remaining pipe cleaner pieces. Glue the cut out hands on top. To make sleeves, cut 2 pieces of self-adhesive felt 7cm x 5cm.
