Sketching the shells
Firstly, we had to sketch some shells with a pencil.We had to sketch the outline and the main lines on the inside of the shell. When we were finished we drew a border around the shell pattern.
Transferring design
Secondly, we transferred the best shell design onto a piece of brown cardboard. Then we drew the border carefully. Next we drew over it with vivid so that the lines would be dark and stand out.
Scrunching the cardboard
Next, we had to scrunch the cardboard 30 times. We did this so that the cardboard would be soft like cloth. When we were finished scrunching the cardboard, we had to flatten it. When it was flattened, it was smooth and soft.
Colour the tapa cloth
Finally, we had to add some colour to our tapa cloth.We could only use the black and brown.We had to color some of the tapa cloth. When it was finished I was very happy with my design.
