Instructions

  • First, choose 2 colors of cardstock. Trace your little one’s handprint on both colors. You will need 4 handprints total, 2 of each color.
  • Cut out the handprints.
  • Now, glue 2 of the handprints together, 1 of each color, side by side.
  • Glue the handprints to the back side of the bag.
  • Repeat with the other 2 handprints on the other side of the bag to make wings.
  • Next, glue the 2 googly eyes in place.
  • Draw a simple mouth with the black marker.
  • Use the different sized paper punches to make circles out of various colors of cardstock. Glue the circles on the handprint wings in your pattern of choice.
  • Finally, cut two small strips of your choice of color cardstock.
  • Roll the ends of the strips with your fingers or a pencil to make antennae.
  • Glue the antennae in place at the top of the bag.
