BROWN BEAR HEADS & TAILS


I found a great link on where else but Pinterest.com! Check out the link! Download and print the PDF. These are great to bring to restaurants, doctor offices, or to use at grandma's. They will fit in any diaper bag, or almost any purse. Here is a video you can play before introducing the cards!


Here's what you will need:
The printout (above link)
Clear Contact Paper
Scissors
Ruler
Tape
Here is what I started with. Cut out the cards and the card holder. 
Then measure how much clear contact paper you will need. Make sure you leave room around the cards. 
Once you have taken the backing off the contact paper arrange the cards. Then cut a second piece of contact paper and place on top. Use a ruler (I used a spatula) to rub out any tiny air bubbles. It is also recommended that you have an extra hand. You might need help so the contact paper doesn't stick together when you peal the backing off. Also when you place the second sheet on top it would be much easier with to two people. If you have to do it alone I suggest making one card at a time. 
You will need to leave a border of contact paper around the cards when you cut them out. This helps to keep the contact paper sealed.
Once you have cut out the animals you can assemble the card holder and secure with tape, because of the contact paper I chose to use the thick tape as shown above.
Here's the finished product! 
Brown Bear heads and tails cards complete with card holder. So cute!
