What you'll need:

How to make it:

1. Fold the green construction paper and cardboard in half like a greeting card. Place the cardboard on the inside of the green construction paper, lining up the fold lines. Use a glue stick to attach the cardboard to the construction paper. (See photo.)
2. Trim off the excess paper if needed. (See photo.)
3. Use pencil to lightly write "DAD" across the front of the card, leaving about 1.5" space underneath. (See photo.)
4. Use green fine point marker to draw dollar signs on "DAD" letters. Erase any pencil marks that might show through. (See photo.)
5. Use white craft glue to attach a penny to each corner of the D's, where the curve meets straight lines, and at the center of the curve. Glue a penny to the top of the letter A, and two at the bottom. (See photo.)
6. Write, "You're worth every penny!" underneath "DAD" with blue fine point marker.

Tips:

1. The pennies add quite a bit of weight to this card, so even card stock or poster board is not sturdy enough, be sure to use the cardboard or your card will not stand freely.
2. For a lightweight card, make photocopies of the pennies and cut them out and glue them on, instead of the real thing.
