Step 1

First, take the piece of cardboard and use the templates to draw and cut out 2 toadstool, 2 carrots and 2 egg pieces.

Step 2

Next, decorate each of your cut out shapes with pastel paint pens and leave them to dry.

Step 3

Cut the top section off each decorated cardboard shape, and set them aside.

Apply a thin line of glue to the sides of the shapes, and then stick them to their matching pieces.

Leave to dry.

Step 4

Now, take the lollipop sticks and paint them green, pink and yellow.

Allow them to dry.

Step 5

Next, use the templates to cut out a chick, frog and bunny in pastel card.

Draw on faces with pens, and stick the arms in places.

Step 6

Finally glue the puppet pieces together, and leave them to dry before inserting them into their respective cardboard shapes.

Your stunning puppet Easter cards are now complete!
