Step By Step Instructions To Make Paper Penguin Bookmark Craft
Time needed: 15 minutes
- Print the penguin craft template.
Print out the paper Penguin bookmark template and trace the patterns on the craft paper. We used black colored craft paper for the body base and flippers, white craft paper for body, red for heart and yellow paper for beak and orange paper for feet. Cut them out using scissors.
- Make the body of the craft
Glue the white pattern of the penguin’s body on the body base cutout.
- Glue the feet.
Next, paste the feet cutouts on the bottom of the white body cutout as shown.
- Paste the flippers.
Take the flipper cutouts, apply glue on the outer edge along its straight side and paste the glued side on either side of the penguin’s body. Keep the rest of the flipper free from glue.
- Glue the heart on the penguin craft’s body.
Apply glue on one side of the heart cutout and paste it on the inner side of the flipper cutout; keep the other side of the heart open.
- Make the face of penguin bookmark craft
To make the face of the Penguin craft, use a black sharpie to draw the eyes and pink sharpie to draw blush spots on both cheeks.
- Fix the beak of the penguin craft.
Lastly, attach the beak cutout near the top, between the eyes to complete your cutesy Penguin bookmark. Simply slide the paper beneath the flippers and heart of the Penguin to use it.
Wasn’t that super easy and quick? This penguin craft takes under 15 minutes to make and is just so adorable. You can use craft paper of your choice for the body base to make it in different color.
