Instructions 1) Create a design covering the whole page of both blank pieces of paper with paint, crayons, or markers, and let dry. 2) While the pages are drying, cut out the castle shapes from the printouts. 3) Place the cut out shapes onto your dried design, trace the shape, and cut out the shape from your design. Hint: Try to get as many shapes out of each page of your design as you can. You can reuse shapes and use as may or few shapes as you want for your castle. 4) Glue your cut out designs onto your construction paper in the shape you want your castle to be. 5) Optional: Color your princess, superhero, or other character and cut them out, then glue your character(s) into your castle scene and display for all to see.
