Materials Required

• Colourful Paper in 3 colours
• Scissors
• Glue
• Sketch Pen
• Glitter sheets (optional)

Steps to make the card

• Take any two coloured paper sheets of your choice and cut out 2 equal circles from each sheet.
• Now, you will have 4 equally sized circles, 2 in each colour.
• Fold each circle in the middle to create semicircles. 
• Align the straight folded edges of the semicircles to form a square. 
• Glue the semicircles together. You will have a square at the bottom and 4 semicircle flaps.
• Take your third piece of paper and cut out a square of the same size. Write your Teachers’ Day wishes on the square and decorate it as per your liking.
• Paste this square over the semicircle square.    
• Now, fold the semicircle flaps in a way that they overlap the adjoining flap. You will create a self-closing card.
• You can add a cut-out from the glitter sheet in any shape you like, such as a heart, star, or circle and stick it on half of the flap. Keep the other half unglued, so that the card can be opened.
