You can of course, substitute and swap things out as you please!
Directions:
- First things first – fold your white cardstock in half. Straight up the center.
- Next open it back up and squirt a few lines of blue paint squiggles with ON ONE SIDE before closing up the cardstock paper again.
- Once the paper is closed for the second time, gently take your hand and “caress” the paint around inside, so it makes a fun symmetrical “water” print design on both sides of the paper {keep in mind – paint might ooze from the sides of the cardstock, so be sure to work in an area that can get dirty!}
- Now you are ready to open it back up to reveal the ocean design underneath.
- Grab TWO cupcake liners. Flatten them both out with your hands.
- Now fold both of them in half.
- Add some glue to the instead AND back of it, so you can secure them both to your paint covered paper piece.
- Now grab some glitter cardstock paper and the scissors.
- Cut out some thin strips for the tentacles of the jellyfish and glue them to the decorated piece as well.
- Once finished, add any other embellishments you like {plus the googly eyes!}
- Then set aside to let it dry completely, before displaying proudly!
