We sent these Thanksgiving Turkey Cards out to family and friends last fall. Although they are 3-D they're actually very easy to make!
For the feathers, score lines every .5" on a piece of scrap paper about 8" long and about 1.5-2" wide.
Tip: If making more than one, score a larger sheet of paper then cut to save time on scoring!
After I scored the paper, I cut it in half since I would use it for two feathers. Fold the paper like an accordion using the scores.
Bend the accordion to make a half circle. Attach the ends to the card. Use a hot glue gun to catch the folds to secure the rest of the 'feathers' to the cards.
I cut out the turkey body using my cricut and Animal Kingdom cartridge, then glued wiggly eyes for something fun.
Inside the card I attached the 'Gobble Gobble' which were also cut out using the cricut. Only the ends are glued so the phrases pop out when the card is opened.
