Craft: Standing Paper Lion
- For lion's body I cut triangles into the short sides of a 5" x 3" piece of card stock. The card was then folded in half and colored. A piece of 1/2" x 4" brown paper was glued to the back and curled for the lion's tale.
- For the lion's head I found a coloring picture online of a lion and sized the head to fit the body. It was cut out of card stock and colored. About 15-20 pieces of 1/2" x 2" brown paper were glued around the head to make the mane.
- The lion's head was glued to the front side of the body towards the top of the fold.
- The lion should stand when the fold is opened slightly.
