How to make a 3D St. Patrick’s Day Craft

Supplies:

Assorted colored papers
Gold paper
Double sided foam stickers or a piece of craft foam
Craft glue
Pencil
Scissors
Template

Directions:

Print out the template and cut all the pattern pieces out.

Choose colored papers for the rainbow, clouds, pot and coins. Also choose a paper for the background (or you can use a craft canvas).

Trace the cloud shapes on white paper, the rainbow patterns on the colored papers you’d like to use, the pot pattern on black, and trace the coins on golden paper.

Glue the bottom portion of the pot (as shown below), leaving the top open about 1/2 an inch so you can tuck the coins behind the pot later.

Glue the pot onto one side of the background paper.

Stick the 3D foam stickers to the back of the cloud shapes.

If you don’t have foam stickers you can make your own 3D squares by cutting a small piece of craft foam. Glue the foam on the back of each cloud shape.

Stick the small cloud cutout on the top of the big cloud. If you are making your own 3D foam stickers, simply glue the foam piece on the smaller cloud onto the bigger cloud.
