Paper Mosaic


Items needed:
Piece of paper, cardstock or cardboard
Old magazines or construction paper
Scissors
Pencil
Glue


Directions:
Lightly draw a picture on a piece of paper,but do not shade it or put a lot of details in it.
The objective is simply to create an outline for the image you will be creating

Cut your colored paper/construction paper into small pieces of paper in different sizes
You can use squares, triangle, diamonds, or let the shapes be irregular

Glue your pieces of paper over the sketch you just made...Leave a small gap between each piece for a tiled effect or place them close together or overlapping for a different look

Let it dry.


You can make your mosaic from rice, paper, candy,. basically anything you want.
