Today for Family Art Fun Day we’re making Eagle cards in honor of Memorial Day!

https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1232901527101504


You’ll need:

Colored paper, Scissors, Glue, Pencil

Optional: Googly eye, Eagle Shape template at simpleeverydaymom.com/heres-your-free-eagle-craft-template (subscribe to their mailing list for more craft ideas!)

Instructions:

Trace handprints onto brown paper and cut out

Fold a second piece of brown paper in half and keep fold at "top" of body

Draw, or trace using template, each section of the eagle

- Draw body from folded to open edges and cut out (this creates your card)

- Draw tail feathers (you can use the body as a size guide) and cut out

- On white paper, draw and cut out the eagle's head (you can use the body as a size guide)

- On yellow paper, draw and cut out claws and a beak (you can use the body/head as size guides)

Glue pieces into place

- handprints behind the body

- tail feathers on the bottom of the eagle

- two claws to the base of the body, where the tail feathers and body meet

- head to the top of the body (where the folded edge is)

- glue the beak to the edge of the head so half is hanging off the head

Draw or glue one eye on the head to the left of the beak.

Write a message inside and share with your friends or family. Share your creation with us too on Facebook or Instagram @Rockfordart
