Polish Wycinanki Paper Cutting


MATERIALS:
Construction paper and White paper
Scissors
Pencil
Glue

DIRECTIONS:
Fold a piece of Construction paper in half
Draw a design along the edge of the paper with the fold
Leaving paper folded, cut out design
Glue design to a piece of white paper larger than the design

NOTE:
This project evolved into making paper dolls with 3 year old Mia doing the drawing and me doing the cutting.
