Easy Stamped Shark Craft
To make this darling shark art craft project you will need clean toilet paper size cardboard rolls, blue cardstock, acrylic paint in blue or gray, as well as blue, gray, and black markers.
Cardboard Roll Stamped Shark Craft Supplies Needed
- Cardboard rolls
- Blue cardstock
- Acrylic paint – blue, gray
- Markers – blue, gray, black
Circle Stamp Shark Craft Step by Step Directions
Begin with clean toilet paper size cardboard rolls. You will need one for every paint color.
Spread a generous amount of your paint colors on a flat surface. A paper plate always works well. We used just a normal sheet of paper this time. For our sharks we used silver, gray, and blue paint.
Now, dip one end of the cardboard rolls in a paint color. Make sure the roll is completely covered in paint.
Stamp the cardboard roll on a sheet of blue cardstock.
Keep stamping to make as many sharks as you want. Be mindful, however, that you need room between circles to draw fins for the sharks. Let the paint dry completely.
Once all paint is dry, use a marker in the corresponding color to draw a ^ symbol on top of the circles.Then, draw two < > on either side of the circles for fins. Add a couple lines on the side fins for details.
Finally, finish the sharks by using a black marker to draw two simple dots for eyes and a mouth.
It’s so easy to keep going making even more sharks with different paint and background cardstock colors!
