Download the Free 3D Kite Shape Printable Template here and print it out on white cardstock paper that has been trimmed to 8.5-inches by 11-inches. Cut out the kite shape from the template. Use it as a pattern and trace the shape five times on colored cardstock. You can use one single color or choose a variety of different colors to create a colorful kite.

Cut out each of the traced kite shapes. Then fold each of them in half length-wise.



Using an extra strength glue stick, add glue to one-half of one of the kites. Line up and place another kite half on the glue to attach them together. Repeat this step four more times to glue each of the kites together. After each of the kites are glued together, you will have a 3D kite shape.

Cut out six small triangle shapes from your cardstock paper scraps for kite string bows. Set them aside.



Add glue on the back of the 3D kite shape and glue it at the top corner of a piece of blue cardstock.



Cut a length of baker's twine about 8-inches long. Add a line of tacky glue running from the bottom of the 3D kite to the bottom of your blue cardstock. To add extra dimension to your paper craft, make the line curvy to look like the string is floating in the sky. Place your baker's twine on the line of glue. Cut off any excess twine that hangs off the bottom of your cardstock.

Use a glue stick to glue each of the small triangle pieces you cut in Step 4 along the baker's twine kite string to look like bows.

Cut out a few clouds from white cardstock. Then glue them on your blue cardstock on the sides of your 3D Kite Craft. Allow the glue on your paper craft to dry completely before handling your craft.



Turn your craft from side to side and up and down to admire the 3D effect of the kite. This colorful paper craft will look stunning hung on display for the summer season.
