Handprint Christmas Tree Christmas Card

One thing I love about handprint crafts is that they capture a moment that will never happen again.

Those little hands are only going to grow each year. This papercraft celebrates your child as they are right in this current moment.

Making a handprint Christmas each festive season could begin a new family tradition.

What you need to make a Handprint Christmas Tree Card:

Blue Paper Green Paper White Paper Yellow Paper Red Paper Scissors Glue Pen White Paint Coloured Dot Stickers Painting Plate

How to create a Handprint Christmas Tree Card:

To create the base for your card, fold the blue paper in half, short length to short length.

Using the scissors, cut out a gentle wavelength of white paper to form a snow mound for the bottom of the card.

Pour a puddle of white paint onto the painting plate to prepare for some fingerprinting.

Have your toddler dip their finger into the white paint before pressing it to the blue face of their card.

Remember that the handprint Christmas tree will be the hero in the middle of the card.

Encourage your toddler to dot paint around the edges of the card; otherwise, they will be hidden behind their handprint.

It is time to make their tree once they are satisfied with their snowfall.

Have your toddler spread their fingers out on the green piece of paper. Use the pen to outline their hand before cutting it out.

Cut out a stump from the red paper and glue it in place above the snow mound.

Glue the green handprint, fingers up on top of the red stump.

Cut out two triangles from the yellow paper. Glue them on top of each other to make a star.

Fix the star in place on top of the middle finger with some glue, pressing it down.

Use the sticky dot stickers as baubles to decorate the tree.

This papercraft handprint Christmas tree Christmas card can add a personal touch to this year's festive season.

Why not have everyone in the family make one to create a family greeting card bunting?
