Instructions
Paint a large piece of bubble wrap with shades of blue paint. Turn the bubble wrap over and place onto white paper.
Press firmly all over the bubble wrap. Pull up the bubble wrap. Allow the paint to dry completely.
Download the sea turtle template and print out.
Cut the template out. Trace the template onto cardstock and cut out. (refer to the photos)
Fold the sea turtle in half and cut slits on the abdomen.
Leave about half an inch around the edges to avoid tearing the paper while you weave.
Cut strips of light green cardstock.
Weave the strips in and out of the slits in the turtle.
Glue the edges of the paper strips to keep them from moving out of place. Cut off excess paper.
Cut a large white circle and a smaller black circle from cardstock.
Glue the eyes together and then glue the eyes onto the turtle’s head.
Use a black marker to add a mouth to your turtle.
Glue your turtle onto the bubble print paper that you made previously.
Your sea turtle craft is finished!
