Pick two blank pages of your notebook. Choose one corner and draw a simple figure to start.
\nIt can be an elf or a snowflake..<\/p>\n

If you look carefully on the following page you could spot a light mark of your shape in the paper.
\nYou can draw it again, exactly as it is in the first page, and add some details.<\/p>\n

Then roll your first page using a pencil\u2026now ready for the magic?<\/p>\n

Use the pencil to flip the corner of your page over the second one as fast as you can..
\nYou would see your character making moves!<\/p>\n
