Hand Print Christmas Tree Cards

Create beautiful cards using your child's hand print to give to family and friends. These cards make lovely gifts for close family members but also a keep sake to you each year. Using simple materials from your crafting box you can make these beautiful cards with all the family.


Resources:
Plain cards,
Green paint,
Glue,
Sequins,
Patterned paper or old wrapping paper/cards

Step 1: Help your little one to make a green hand print at the top of the card.

Step 2: used glue to fix your paper cut into the shape of a bucket to the bottom of the hand print.


Step 3: Dab glue in patches over the green hand print, you may wish to use glitter glue for extra sparkle. Then using sequins or other collage material such as buttons stick them on.


The lovely thing about these cards is that each will turn out decorated differently by the children so every one will get a different variation of the card. Some times I find children do not fancy doing 20 of the same card so it's a good idea to split the cards up and decorate them in intervals or Choose a few different designs to make.
