Steps:
1. Print out the template.
2. Color and cut out the parts.
3. Score along the grey dashed lines. To score, place a ruler along the dashed lines and trace the lines with the dull edge of a butter knife. This will create soft creases.
4. Cut the tabs along the solid grey lines, and fold them inwards. Fold the card along its middle make it close.
5. Apply glue on each tab, only on the parts that stands perpendicular to the bottom, and stick each character to the tab with her / his name on it. Glue the frog and the water lily wherever you want them.
6. Add a cover to the card:
- Place the card on colorful cardstock. Use a pencil to mark the card’s corners and its center.
- Cut the cardstock slightly bigger than the card, and score it along the center.
- Glue the cardstock to the back of the card. Be carful not to glue the folded tabs (they need to stay loose to pop up).
- Fold the card and glue the “HAPPY PASSOVER” label on the front cover.
7. DONE! You made your own DIY pop up card for Passover!
