Using handprints in your scrapbook

The sweetest accents to a child's scrapbook page are handprints. Handprints are especially appreciated in baby or grandparent scrapbooks.

To make prints, prepare a flat surface. Next, put acrylic paint into a paper plate. Then, have your child place his or her hands in the paint and then on your scrapbook surface, one at a time. After the paint dries, you will have a permanent record of your child's handprints.

And of course you can use this method to record your child's footprints as well!
