The Hand Print Quotes (Great Gift Idea)


Inspirational Quote Hand Print Keepsake
The best thing you toddler or young child has is there hand print.  There are so many great crafts out there that you can make just by using their hand print.  There are lots for different holidays,seasons and for keepsakes. Here is one idea I had this Christmas while making gifts with my son. His Daddy loves it :)

What you will need:
A picture frame
Water colour paints
Non-toxic Finger Paint Stamp Pad
Water colour paper or other strong paper that can hold the water colour

Step 1:
Paint in darker water colours several words in the background that discribe your quote or the person you are giving the gift too.
Step 2:
When the words are dry .Paint your background colour over the words with faint colour,
Step 3:
When the background is dry get your toddler to take thier hand on the finger paint stamp and stamp all over the background you have just made.
Step 4:
When dry. Find an inspirational quote online and write it on the paper in permanent marker.
Step 5:
Frame picture and wrap it up for that speical someone :)
