Materials List

  • Card
  • Colors
  • Crayons
  • Markers
  • Card embellishment poppers

Instructions

  1. Prepare the background card on which you wish to mount up your dolphins. Size is entirely up to your preference or space available.

  2. Cut out 2 dolphins pictures.

  3. Cut out a couple of wave patterns to mount up under your dolphins.

  4. Shade your background card -- I choose crayons for my background. I used a light blue for the sky & a medium blue for the sea.

  5. Then color your waves with a variety of blues so that you give the idea of volume & light.

  6. Now you move on to coloring your dolphins. I used a variety of greys. I also used a couple of markers to emphasize some outlines.

  7. Finally mount your wave pieces onto card embellishers poppers so that these pop up onto your background & give the idea of 3D art.

  8. Once the waves are in place mount your dolphins onto card embellishers poppers too & place them at the centre of your picture.
