Sketch the dinosaur

Take your corrugated cardboard sheets and use a pencil to draw two matching dinosaur shapes on them.

Cut the Shapes

Carefully use a pair of craft scissors or a safe cutter to follow your pencil outlines and cut out both dinosaur figures.

Create the holder

Cut a separate strip of corrugated sheet and fold it to make a thick, sturdy "U" shaped central holder piece.

Paint the drawing

Take your Rangeela Tempera Pastel Colours and paint the dinosaur bodies with soft pastel shades, adding contrasting spots and spines.

Paint the holder

Apply an even coat of matching paint to the inside and outside of the U-shaped central holder block and let it dry.

Assemble the pen stand

Apply Fevicol MR to the sides of the U-shaped holder, stick it firmly between both dinosaurs, add cute googly eyes, and your pen stand is ready!
