Foam Mosaic Art


I have been enjoying teaching quilling to my seven year old student. This time we thought of making some non quilling project . I thought of teaching her foam mosaic art. Its fun , easy and kid friendly . We made this fish in water with some sea weeds with her telling me that sea weed grows in oceans that are warmer and near the Equator :). We enjoyed making this project a lot.

Here are the supplies needed for this project:
- Foam sheets of various colors
- Scissors
- Outline of the fish, or you can draw it free hand
- Black card stock
- Glue
You simply have to cut out pieces from the foam sheets and glue them on the card stock keeping a little gap between each piece to get he mosaic effect. It sure needs a little patience but with a cupcake break and some stories from her , this project was a lot of fun. Hope you get inspired to try it.

This weekend is a long weekend. Happy Independence day to all my US readers. 
Hope you all have a fun weekend!
