on this blog (and inspired by ideas from Art Attack http://www.disney.co.uk/disney-junior/art-attack/)

Materials
-A4 coloured card
-White paper (A5 size)
-Decorative paper (wrapping paper, for example)
-Basic materials: scissors, ruler, glue, coloured pens, etc
-Extra card, circular stickers or off-cuts of the decorative paper for the buttons
*You could use real buttons and material (for tie/hankerchief)...you would need PVA white glue for this rather than 'pritt-stick'.


Stage 1
-Stick white paper to centre of coloured card (the size of the paper should be cut slightly thinner than A5 size in width so the 'jacket lapels' can overlap).

-Fold (use a ruler to get a straight fold) the 2 outside edges to make jacket front.

-Fold top corners back to make 'jacket lapels'.

-Cut a triangle shape out of edge of 'lapels'.

-Draw on shirt collar with black pen. Add shirt detail if desired.
-Cut out and stick on tie and hankerchief detail.
-Add buttons. Draw on any stitching detail with pencil.
-Add message on the inside.
