Mixed Media Paper Soldier Craft Supplies:

DIrections:

First things first – paint one of your small paper plates with the skin tone paint, completely. Once done, set that piece aside to let it dry a bit.
Next take your green construction paper and fold it in half. Unfold it again.
Take the scissors and now cut straight up, on the folded line you just made. You now have two pieces. One piece will the body of the soldier, while the other piece will be cut up for his body embellishments.
Now take the black cardstock and remaining green cardstock & cut out boots, arms, legs and a half circle “helmet” for your soldier.
Once the green pieces are cut out, lay them on a flat surface {place the boots aside for the last step.}
Squirt some black and brown craft paint on the second paper plate you have. Place a qtip in each paint blob.
Using the qtips as your paint brush, make “dots” for the camo all over the green paper. Add as much color and/or dots as you like!
Once done, let these pieces dry a bit.
When dry enough, grab the stapler and staple your pieces in place. My suggestion is to start with the paper plate head and go from there.
Finally, glue on the wiggle eyes on the paper plate for him to see and draw on a simple smile with the black Sharpie marker, as well.
Then display your solider piece proudly for ALL to see!
