Christmas Elf Craft

nathan's christmas elf

made with scrapbook paper

you will need

several different sheets of christmas scrapbook paper

 one paper plate

pink or flesh colored paint

two wiggly eyes

one button

one pom pom

red yarn

scrap ribbon

glue

we used a square for the body

and painted a paper plate for the face

we cut the inner circle of the plate for the face

and used the edges of the plate to cut out pointy ears

then, we used a sheet of scrapbook paper to make a hat

and a fun elf collar

we also cut two long strips of each paper

for the arms and the legs

we folded the arms and legs in a zigzag pattern

we painted the plate pink

and glued on the ears, the eyes, a button for the nose,

and some yarn for the mouth

then we glued all the pieces together

we added a pompom and a cute festive ribbon to the hat

and another small rectangle to the square as a belt

it came out super cute!!!

see, i just knew hoarding all that old christmas and holiday

scrapbook paper would pay off eventually - hehehe!
