How to use the Crayon Template
1. Print off the crayon template.
You can get the free printable template at the bottom of the post.
2. Cut out the card portion of the template.
If you want the inside of the card to be blank, use the template to trace on white cardstock.
The card should open so that the writing portion is inside the card.
3. Cut out the crayon colored pieces on colored cardstock.
You want 2 colors for each crayon – a lighter color and a slightly darker color. The lighter color is for the label and the darker color is for the crayon part on the tip and bottom.
You’ll also need 4 strips of black cardstock.
4. Glue the cardstock colored pieces to the white card.
Start by gluing the lighter colored label to the middle of the card.
Then add the bottom of the crayon piece on top.
5. Glue the crayon paper tip on the top.
Your card should now look like this:
6. Glue the black paper strips to the crayon.
You’ll need 2 at the top of the label and 2 at the bottom.
7. Glue on googly eyes if you want to give your crayon a face.
You can also draw them on.
8. Add a smiley face with a black marker.
9. Now kids can write their favorite color inside and a few sentences on why it’s their favorite.
Your crayons are now finished – we love how cute they are!
Kids will enjoy making a crayon in their favorite color. Place the crayons on a board or make a banner of them when you are done!
