DIY Tutorial: Babies and Toddlers Mother's Day Fingerprint Flower Art Frame

Miss Kwek and I did three fingerprint flower art frames for the upcoming Mother's Day! As you can guess, one for her paternal grandma and another for her maternal grandma. The last one is for my own keepsake!

The fingerprint flower art frame is relatively easy to carry out with common craft materials found at home.

Things Required:
1. Craft papers
2. Fingerpainting paint
3. Craft sticks
4. Ribbons
5. Glue/double sided tape
6. Photo Frame

Instruction:

1. Paint your baby's or toddler's palm with the fingerpainting paint. Guide them to press their painted palm onto craft papers. Do as many or as little till you are satisfied (or when babies and toddlers get irritated by the same action!)

2. On another bigger sheet of craft paper, I got Miss Kwek to use a heart pattern roller brush to randomly roll on for a touch of colour meant for the frame backdrop.

Alternatively, if you do not have a roller brush, you may get your baby/toddler to fingerpaint instead. Otherwise, backdrop may simply be make out of solid colour craft paper.

3. After the paint dried. I cut out the individual fingerprints. These fingerprint will act as the "flower". For the backdrop, I cut according to the frame size.
4. I double sided taped each craft stick "stem" and guided Miss Kwek to combine the fingerprints flower to its individual craft stick stem. Then, I tied a ribbon on each stem before taping the completed fingerprint flowers onto its respective backdrop.
5. Frame the finished fingerprint flower art up and its ready to be sent out!

Here, I used some decorative alphabet stickers to form the words "Happy Mother Day" before having them frame.
Hope you find this tutorial useful!

The fingerprint flower art frame makes a perfect gift for Mother's Day and also any other special occassions! Do give it a try!
