Halloween Pop-Out Cards

These are so fun and were done with both the First and Second grade classrooms.  You can google Pop Out cards and see the numerous links and videos for how to make them.  Here are a couple links.

For the most part, all you need is:
  • construction paper (orange/white/black)
  • scissors
  • glue stick
  • sticker eyeballs (optional)
  • fun halloween stickers (optional)
  • cotton or filelr(optional)
  • chalk (Use the side of the chalk and a small paper towel to create that smoky effect)(optional)
Prep Work:
If you have any cutouts you want to make like ghosts, pumpkins, bats, etc., then you can go ahead ad cut those out for the students to choose from.
This was my first time making these, and it was so much fun.  Feel free to get as creative as you want.  By the way, the inner piece of the construction paper doesn't have to be the exact size as the background.  It can have that layered effect also.  We did these on a Friday, and had so much fun :).
