Fingerprint Flower Bouquet Card

Crafting has a wonderful way of turning simple materials into heartfelt keepsakes.

With just a dab of paint and a few creative strokes, you can transform your fingerprints into a blooming bouquet of flowers.

This project combines art and personal touch, making it the perfect activity for kids and adults alike to create something truly one-of-a-kind.

It’s a delightful, mess-friendly craft that’s sure to bring smiles to anyone who receives it!

Materials Needed:

  • Red paint (or any color you like for the flowers)
  • Green marker or crayon
  • White cardstock or thick paper
  • Light-colored construction paper (for framing, optional)
  • Ribbon or string (for the bow, optional)
  • Glue (if using a bow)
  • Paper plate or palette (for paint)
  • Wet wipes or a damp cloth (for cleaning fingers)

Instructions:

Prepare Your Workspace:

  • Lay down some newspaper or a plastic cover to keep your area clean.
  • Pour a small amount of red paint onto a paper plate.

Make Fingerprint Flowers:

  • Dip your fingertip into the red paint.
  • Press your finger onto the white cardstock to create heart-shaped petals. You can make the shape by pressing twice at an angle to form a heart.
  • Repeat this process to create as many little flowers as you like.

Draw the Stems:

  • Once the paint dries, use a green marker to draw stems coming down from each flower.
  • Draw little leaves on the stems if you’d like to make it more detailed.

Add a Bow (Optional):

  • Cut a small piece of ribbon and tie it into a bow.
  • Glue the bow where all the stems meet to make it look like a real bouquet.

Frame Your Artwork (Optional):

  • Glue your flower art onto a piece of light-colored construction paper to give it a framed look.

Be sure to let everything dry completely.
