A Sea Creature Pop-Up Snow Globe

This sea creature snow globe uses the rubber band pop-up mechanism that was created in my previous two blog postings. https://papercraftetc.blogspot.com/2022/04/a-stem-project-making-pop-up-base-for.html and https://papercraftetc.blogspot.com/2022/04/a-stem-project-resizing-slice-form.html

There are plenty of sea creatures packed into this snow globe. There is an octopus, a sea horse, a star fish, a sea turtle and coral inside this snow globe. This pop-up will delight children and adults alike.

The back view looks great too!
 
This sea creature pop-up snow globe lies flat and will fit into an A7 envelope. The rubber band mechanism inside the base will deploy and the snow globe will expand when it is taken out of the envelope.


Here is the PDF. I used Neenah brand 65 lb metallic card stock from Office Depot. A one inch rubber band is required for the pop-up base. (The rubber band is similar to the rubber band that is used on a Rainbow Loom.) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oM59RFHOj8AUm0wwqXKoMwhI636R6DBp/view?usp=sharing

Here is the .Studio file.

Here is the SVG.

Make the slice form sphere. The slice form sphere directions are in this blog posting, https://papercraftetc.blogspot.com/2020/10/a-stem-project-how-to-make-slice-form.html#comment-form 


Make and assemble the slice form sphere base and rubber band base using the directions in this blog posting. https://papercraftetc.blogspot.com/2022/04/a-stem-project-making-pop-up-base-for.html


Wrap and glue the base with pretty paper to complete the pop-up sea creature snow globe.
