Print out or trace the template on a paper, then cut the wings out, and trace them on your colored paper. Using a ruler, fold the straight edge of the wings, then fold it back, and squeeze the edges nicely. Set them aside, then cut a piece of wire 6.5 inches long, and fold it in half squeezing the end with pliers. Shape the wire using the stencil guide, then cut another piece of wire 9.8 inches long, and shape the body of the butterfly according to the stencil. Insert the rubber band and assemble the body of the butterfly as demonstrated in the video, then glue the wings to the wire, and add some more details or design to the wings using your marker. Twist the butterfly before inserting it into your card or letter!
