Hello, friends especially diy ers!
Last weekend i finally could make a pop up Halloween card with the pop up cute ghost. This was my first attempt using this kind of method for making pop up card but i'm trying hard to make it easily so that you could also copy one at home. Now let's begin the tutorial!
Project Time: approximately 3.5 hours
Difficulty: easy
Materials & things needed:
- orange construction paper
- purple cardboard
- 30 cm ruler
- a circle object
- pencil
- eraser
- drawing paper or white paper
- soft pink paper
- 0.5 drawing pen
- glue stick
How to make it:
1ST
First i measured the orange paper. I cut it a bit, i cut it to be 20 cm x 14,5 cm. Then i measured the purple cardboard then cut it a bit larger than the orange. Folded them in the middle. Then i drew the circle with the object a little upper in the middle of orange paper.
2ND
Then i folded the orange paper then cut the circle symetrically from the bottom and top, erase the pencil, then folded it in the middle like below.
3TH
Then i started to draw the ghost. First i started with the same circle, copy it to the paper. After that, continued drawing both hands then body part. Finished drawing, i cut it off then try it on the orange paper. I didn't satisfy with the result because it was too small and didn't cover the bottom side.
4TH
So then i decided to make another ghost. For the second attempt, i also did the same steps as i did before. But this time i got an ideal size of the ghost i wanted. After that, i cut two circle of soft pink paper for the cheeks.
5TH
Then, i drew the eyes and mouth plus pasted two pink circles. After that, i glued the circle on orange paper, added the ghost then folded the ghost. After that, at the back of orange paper, put the glue all over it except the circle part in the middle. Then pasted it to the purple cardboard.
6TH
Next the last one, i prepared the boo word on the drawing paper. First i wrote with pencil then bolded it with the drawing pen. After that erased the pencil sketch, cut it off. Add the folded paper at the back then pasted it like below.
The Result
Voila here is the boo ghost pop up halloween card i made..
How do you think of it?
