THE 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 “ocean” 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 water design underneath.
  • Grab your remaining pieces of cardstock paper, along with the pencil and scissors.
  • Trace your hand on the yellow paper.
  • Trim out the design. This will become your fish.
  • Glue the cutout to the center of your paint splat design.
  • Add a small “heart” lip shape, along with the googly eye.
  • Once finished, add any other embellishments you like.
  • Then set aside to let it dry completely, before displaying proudly!
