Enchanted Learning Software's Scary Pop-up Spider Card More Kid's Crafts Make a scary spider pop-up card using construction paper. This is a great Halloween card or an invitation to a Halloween party.

Supplies needed:

Two pieces of construction paper (use 2 different colors, like black and orange) Scissors Glue Markers or crayons

Fold two rectangular pieces of construction paper in half. One piece will be the outside of the card, and one piece will be the inside.

Cut a straight line perpendicular to the fold in the middle of one of the pieces of paper.

Fold down the paper on each side of the cut you just made.

Cut a short, straight line on the top fold (do not cut all the way to the edge of the paper).

Fold down the paper on each side of the cut you just made.

Unfold the folds and open up the card. Carefully pop the spider's mouth and eyes so that they bulge towards the inside of the card.

Draw half a spider around the mouth and eyes (draw the head/body and four long legs).

Glue the other piece of folded construction paper to the back of your card. Cut along the half-spider drawing you made in the previous step.

Fold the card up. Now cut the other half of the spider out.

Open up your card and decorate your spider if you'd like - you can give it hairy skin, stripes, and eyeballs (drawn on the underlayer). You might even want to glue on long fangs (make sure that the fangs fit inside the card when you fold the card up). Write a message on your scary spider pop-up card.
