Step 3
- On A3 yellow card, or colour of your choioce, draw a square that is 27cm on each side. Carefully cut out the square.
- Take one of the corners and fold it over diagonally. Unfold the card and take the other unfolded corner and fold that one over diagonally as well. Unfold the card so that an x shape can be seen on the paper.
- Fold the bottom right corner of the card to the centre point of the fold mark. Repeat this so that all of the corners are folded at the centre and a smaller square has been made.
- Flip the card over so that the loose card flaps are at the bottom. Fold each corner to the centre again, making another smaller square. On each of the flaps write the numbers 1-8 using the deco pens. Wait for the pen ink to dry.
- To add the fortunes lift up the flaps and write one of these 8 fortunes on the blank space under each number:
- • Time travelling Dinosaurs
- • A cat on a space ship
- • A planet made of ice cream
- • A mermaid in a talent contest
- • Pirates who find hidden treasure
- • A group of friends on holiday
- • A boy who can do magic
- • A girl who drives a race-car
