Canada Day Sun Visor

The perfect way to keep the sun out of your eyes at your
Canada Day picnic!
You will need:
Red card
White card
Glue stick
Sticky tape
Cut a strip of red card 1.5inches (3cm) wide and long enough to fit around
your head. Measure it around your head and tape to secure.
From the white card, cut a rectangle approximately 8 by 6
inches (20 by 15 cm). Cut the corners at one end into curves. This is the
front of your visor.
Either draw your own or use our
maple leaf template
to cut a maple leaf out of red card. Glue it to the front of the visor.
Either side of the maple leaf glue a rectangle of red card. Trim these to
the edge of the visor.
To fit the visor to the band, put the band on top of the
visor where you want it go and mark it’s position (see photo below).

Now, from the back of the visor, cut slits up to the line
to make tabs, as shown:

Put the band back on the line and fold and tape the tabs
to the inside. Trim any of the tabs that stick out. Glue securely, and wait
until the glue dries before you wear your creation!
