Video Transcript

"Hi this is Karen for Expert Village. Next we are going to just accent our froggy face. See now that the folds are made nice and firm every time you open that card the face will be there. You don't have to be worry about popping it out again. Now before we color on it I'm going to just secure the ends with a little bit of double stick tape. You can also use a dab a glue I like the double side tape cause it doesn't wrinkle the paper. Put a little bit on each corner. That gives your pop up a little bit more stability and we are going to use a marker here and first I'm going to color in the eyes a little bit. Give that frog a little eyeball. So if you turn it like this and you put your marker and you are just going to color on the inside to make a little bit of a eyeball there. Then turn it around and do the other eye. Make a little bit of a eyeball there. You have to be careful sometimes it might show through if your markers are wet it can come through. If you are going to do a design on the front you want to make sure that your marker is not bleeding through. Okay there is your eyeballs and I'm going to put some lips on this frog. So I'm going to flatten out a little bit to be able to work with it. I'm going to put a little bit of lipstick on my frog here. Oops! There you go and I'm going to make this a frog prince or a princess so I'm going to put a crown on my frog. A nice golden crown and you can I'm just drawing this very quickly. If you want more detail if you have the time to really play with it and it is very cute and we can write something quiet like "How about a kiss". There is our froggy card. "
