Your children's hands and feet prints always make for really awesome keep sakes (and it's fun for them too).
- I used just regular acrylic paint and drawing paper (it's thicker than printer paper).
- Just lather your little ones hand in the paint using a paint brush and stick it to the paper for about three seconds. If you have younger children like I do (2 yrs and 3 months) it helps if you press their hand to the paper yourself instead of just telling them to put their hand down on it ( my 2 year old kept wanting to rub her hand around on the paper).
- Then for the V I used my 3 month old's feet (to incorporate both of the kids in the artwork).
- Once that dries, just paint in the L and the E and some hearts for decoration and send of to relatives (be sure to keep one for yourself). The fam LOVED them, and you didn't have to go out and buy cheesy cards for everyone!
