Rocket Slice Form Placecard

Planning a space-themed party?

Here's a fun and (relatively) quick table accent

to hold a place card for every astronaut at the feast!

Six center-folded shapes are joined back-to-back, 

leg overlays added to prepare this dimensional rocket.

 Measures approx. 5.5" tall x 2" wide.

Or, create a dimensional decoration by 

substituting out the card-holding slices.

ASSEMBLY: 1. Identify and cut the shapes:
A: rocket body slices 1-6
(NOTE that 1 & 6 include the cutout
that will accept the name card rectangle;
if you want to build a plain rocket,
cut one each of 3 & 4 in place of 1 & 6)
B leg overlays left and right
C name card base  D name card

2. Prepare all body slices by bending forward

at the vertical center perforation lines.

3. Position and attach appropriate left or right

leg overlays to each slice, matching edges

that correspond.

4. Pair up the body slices as shown . . .

. . .and adjust, attach securely the halves of slice 2 
and slice 1 that come together as they are laid out.

5. Position slice 6 with corresponding
cutout edge aligned with remaining exposed
half of slice 1, adjust, and attach securely.

6. Continue to add the remaining slices

in order (5, 4, 3) in the same manner

to the assembly.

After the first half of slice 3 is attached

to slice 4, position and attach the

remaining half of 3 to the exposed half

of slice 2 to complete the circuit.

7. Layer the place card shapes
and attach.
8. To position the place card,
slide the center slot cuts over the
front leg fin, then tip in the
upper edge of card and slide
the top of the cutout over the card slot.

Here is the completed
rocket place card.
