How to make our penguin heart cards
Start by taking your black piece of card and folding it in half. Cut the card down into into a circular shape ensuring that part of the fold of the card is left intact. Cut across the bottom of the card to create a flat edge so that it can stand freely.
Cut out a heart shape to make the penguin’s white belly and glue it down in place towards the bottom of the penguins body.
Cut out a diamond shape from your yellow paper and fold it in half to make the penguin’s beak. Glue the beak in place just above the belly.
Finally add two Googly eyes to complete your card and once it’s fully dry you’re ready to add your special festive message inside!

How to make a hanging Halloween spider
Start by taking your coloured card and cutting out one large circle for the body and one small circle for the head.
Glue the head circle onto the bottom of the body circle as you can see above.
Cut out 8 little pointed legs and start by gluing one pointing downwards on each side of the head and then glue on the remaining legs.
Cut out two little fangs and glue them on the back of the spiders head pointing downwards. Glue on two Googly eyes and your spider is almost complete!
If you want to hang the spider punch a hold at the top of its body and thread a piece of string through the hole. We love the way these look hanging in our window; perfect for Halloween!
