Cardboard Frog Step by Step

For the body, cut a long strip of green cardboard. The cardboard is dense, thanks to which the craft will take a stable vertical position. The dimensions are arbitrary, but so that when folded, a rectangular body is obtained. Although, someone may like the idea of a fat frog, then it is quite possible to make the body wider and generally square.
Use a compass to draw a circle that will be the head of the frog, its width is equal to the width of the body. Cut out from green cardboard.
Also cut out two small circles from the same cardboard, they will be the eyes. Cut out smaller white circles for the eyes.
The front and back legs can be drawn on paper, cut out, and then circled on cardboard. Moreover, they can be any, for example, in the form of a thin strip with three-toed ramifications at the ends, all four of the same shape.
To decorate the frog, you can make him accessories — a yellow butterfly and buttons.
