This week, I decided to do something with hand prints for our family decor. I found this idea through pinterest at Tip Junkie and really liked it. I've seen a few other hand print ideas but this one actually represants our whole family right where we are now. It is "billed" as a Father's Day gift but I decided that doing it now was perfect because my boys are both approaching birthdays. I may re-do this every year - how fun would that be? Than add the previous years page to our scrapbook!
Here's the original photo:
First, I dug through my scrapbook paper and decided to go with paper from dark to light.
The next step is the hardest . . . I traced every one's hands.
I decided to attach the hands to an actually scrapbook page and I want to purchase an Everyday Display to use as the frame as it will hold a 12 x 12 page (or lots of pictures!) and make it the center of my photo wall (which I want to update too!) Here's my final product:
I wonder if, eventually, my hand will have to be the top hand because the boys will have larger hands? I really love this keepsake - such a great way to save a moment!
