We made this today with my almost 1yr old so thought I'd share in case you are stuck for ideas. Its on canvas so a real keep sake and so easy to do :thumbsup: I'm really pleased with it and I know it will make mum cry :laughing:

Lovely idea but how did you get it to look so great? Lo has just turned 1 and she barely stays still let alone do something like this :laughing:

I had trouble getting a painted hand print on a card - salt dough hand print took some effort too :rolleyes:

will remember this for next year though

Obviously I did the glitter glue bit, but for the footprints I just sat her in the high chair, tickled her toes with a paintbrush and pressed the canvas to it :thumbsup:

I did these yesterday for my christmas cards from los. The babies sat in the highchair whilst I painted their feet - the they had fun with sequins and bits to stick on.

Love the idea. will remember this one.

Im doing calanders with hand prints, they are taking one home for parents and Ive found out how many grandparents each have and plan to send them with enough for them too - tho for one mindee thats 7 houses of granparents!

was gonna try hand paint with the baby 5 mths but actually I think footprints maybe easier
