Hi my crafty friends! Since Mother’s Day is just around the corner, I figured I should probably get my butt in gear and start sharing some DIY gift ideas that kids can make on the fly!

Today’s post is actually piggy-backing off an idea I shared last year for Father’s Day {You Are My Superhero Canvas} By taking that same concept and adding some “long blonde hair” to give it the look of a Super Mom – it became a great gift idea for Mother’s Day. And like always – it’s super easy, really inexpensive and sure to be treasured by the receiver!

So without further ado – here is how I pulled together this EASY Footprint Superhero Canvas Gift Idea within minutes. Perfect for mothers, grandmas or even just a special lady in your child’s life. You can even use this simple idea to make cards or a special page for in a scrapbook. I just hope our idea sparks some creativity in your today! Happy crafting {and gifting} my friends!

Supplies:

* Large Canvas
* Various Colors of Paint
* Paint Brushes
* Paper Plate
* Wipes
optional – scrapbook stickers/glitter

Directions:

Between each step – be sure to let the paint dry completely so colors don’t bleed
* First paint your child’s foot and press it down on the canvas. Next to the footprint, do a handprint as well for the “cape” of the supermom.
* Once dry, start painting on embellishments to give it life. {a head with lips, eyes and hair, as well as some arms coming from the footprint}
* To finish off the Footprint Supermom Craft – simply add other embellishments you see fit {like scrapbook stickers, glitter etc} Then display proudly or gift away!
