Crafting by not a very crafty mum - finger print thank you cards

Christmas was coming, the goose was getting fat, so it was time to sort out Christmas thank you cards.

I was so pleased how fast and effective this one was. Check it out.


These are all our thumb prints. I've seen things with baby/toddler footprints, etc, but I thought it would be lovely to include the whole family this Christmas.

I bought a finger printing set which had brown paint and just added some red stickers as noses and drew in some details with a biro. If I'd had some black stickers, I would have done black for us parents and red for just Little E, but red was what I had in stock!

Again, I put this on a postcard that I printed out as many times as I needed, but if you have agreeable little ones you could make them all by hand. Not likely with our Little E! One good thing about making them as postcards was some of the borders that were available were lovely and I felt really added to the final outcome.


I think I've had the most positive feedback about this thank you card.

And yes...I have big thumbs...for keeping people under, y'know.
