STEP 1 : Source and cut the corrugated sheet.
  • We are going to make the visiting card holder using the corrugated sheet and Mouldit.
  • Take the corrugated sheet.
  • Draw and cut 3 ovals out of it.
STEP 2 : Mix Fevicryl Mouldit
  • We are going to build the faces on the oval base with Mouldit.
  • Take the Mouldit resin base and hardener, mix it thoroughly to make even dough.
STEP 3 : Roll the dough
  • Take the dough, roll it to make medium thick slab with rolling pin.
STEP 4 : Make the holders
  • Mark and cut the oval shapes from the slab. Stick the slab on the ovals using Fabric Glue. Let it dry.
  • We are going to use old pencils to make the stand for the face.
  • Take any old pencil, cover and stick the slab around the pencil with Fabric Glue.
  • Leave it to dry.
  • Similarly cover the rear side of the faces with the slab in such a way that keep the small slit towards the top of the head, as the holder for the visiting card.
