Let your creativity shine! Show your love this birthday season by crafting a special paper scrap card!

Craft Supplies:

  • Cardstock Paper Cards
  • Various Paper Scraps
  • Scissors/Paper Trimmer
  • Tape Runner Adhesive
  • Sharpie Markers

Directions:

  • Using your scissors – first trim down your various paper scrap pieces to give the look of a stacked cake.  This is done by cutting thin strips of rectangles out of the scraps and then trimming each one down a bit, as the cake gets taller. {You can also make a stacked pile of presents}
  • Now grab your adhesive and apply it on the back of each scrap piece.
  • Place the rectangle paper pieces, in order, on the card front to make your cake design.
  • Add other embellishments like candles, bows etc. I drew some candles on mine.
  • If desired – write a “birthday” sentiment somewhere on the card.
  • Repeat process for each paper scrap birthday card you want to make today!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
