Get your summer vibes! Tinker yourself into the pastel summer. Your fuzzy companion Biscuit sits expectantly in the beach bag while you treat yourself to a scoop of lemon ice cream at the ice cream van. Then it's straight on to the next picnic outing on your scooter, the warm breeze on your face and plenty of sunshine in your heart.

Grab some scissors, glue and pastel paper and create your own DIY summer paradise full of fresh colors, soft shapes and a dose of la dolce vita. With every cut and every dot of glue, you'll create a little piece of summer happiness to accompany you through the sunny days. So get to the crafting table and embark on your pastel summer dream.

With the Pastel DIN A4 10-color construction paper/photo cardboard block (item no. 678), you can make the dog, the parasol, the ice cream truck, and the scooter. With the folia construction paper/photo cardboard pad in pastel DIN A6, 10 colors (item no. 6604), you can make the cute dog, the parasol, and the ice cream truck. Combine the colors however you like and get creative!

Print out the template and cut out all the parts.

Transfer the template to the photo cardboard and cut out these parts.

Carefully cut out the delicate parts, e.g. for the bag, using the craft knife or a cutter.

Glue the figures together using a glue stick and 3D glue pads. Use the graphic and the photo to help you or get creative yourself! For example, glue the lemons or the ice cream scoops together with 3D glue pads to achieve the great 3D effect.

Use a black pen to draw on the small details such as the eyes and mouth.

Have fun crafting! With scissors and a little crafting imagination, you can create little scenes full of holiday spirit. Combine the colors however you like ! Show us your most beautiful scenes on Instagram and tag us with #foliadiy and @folia_diy!
