2. Take an ordinary paper sheet of any color and size. By the way, the product will be very original, if you use a bright paper or sheet with an unusual print. Fold it in half, and then unfold. This will create a fold.

3. Further, going strictly to the center of the sheet, at the point where the fold line was obtained, bend all the corners.

4. Then fold the blank of the loud cracker in half. In this case, all bent corners must be inside the product.

5. Now the resulting figure, resembling trapezoidal outlines, folded in half again. After the workpiece from the sheet of paper must be turned back. This will create the necessary fold lines.
