DLTK's Bible Crafts
American Angel Paper Craft

Multi cultural templates available.

Alternative:  Rather than making a paper craft, print the B&W template, cut out the pieces and trace them onto craft foam.  Assemble like the paper craft.  Use black marker to draw on facial features. The small template makes a nice craft foam tree ornament.  

Materials:

  • printer
  • paper
  • scissors
  • glue
  • something to color with (if using B&W template)

Directions:

  • Print template of choice.  The large templates are easier for young children to do as the pieces are bigger.
      
  • Color the template pieces if you are doing the B&W version (red, white and blue!)
      
  • Cut out the template pieces (this may require adult assistance -- I usually roughly cut the paper into pieces with one template on each.  Then I give my 3 year old the big ones to work on and I cut out the smaller ones.)
      
  • The large (red) piece is the bottom.  To it, glue (in order):
    1. the dress (blue)
    2. the head/neck
    3. the hair (onto the head)
    4. the wings
    5. the star (the points should go right at the waist of the angel)
    6. the hands (so they overlap the star a little)
    7. the feet (underneath the large piece)
        
  • look at the image of the finished craft if you get stuck.

 

  • Close the template window after printing to return to this screen. 
       
  • Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
