Step 3

Fold the card (the long oval-shaped piece) in half with the colored side coming outside.

Step 4

Stick Santa’s beard on the top of the card with the straight edge aligning with the folded side.

We are going to make Santa’s face now. Get the small oval-shaped piece. Stick Santa’s hair above it with the two ends touching the dashed line.

Now, stick the card above Santa’s face covering the dashed line.

Step 5

Let’s stick Santa’s eyes, nose, and the moustache now.

Now, we will give a hat to our Santa. Stick the red triangle above the hair on the top. Then stick the white rectangular paper strip above it and trim off the edges. Finally, stick the circle shape on the top of the hat.
