It’s been awhile since I’ve shared something for the grandparents – so today I’m putting a stop to that madness!

Today’s craft tutorial was actually a spur-of-the-moment idea and I’m so glad I took the time to create it with my son. Since we are military, we live pretty far away from both our families so footprint crafts like this, is extra special to send to the grandparents. Sides that – crafts like these are just the best to do at this age anyways. With kids growing so fast, it’s great to create keepsakes to remember those once tiny feet!

So what are you waiting for? Grab your supplies and set up shop to make this “Little Piggies” Footprint Card Keepsake to send to the grandparents today. Don’t forget to write a special message inside and of course – make one for yourself too & throw it in a scrapbook for safe keeping!

Supplies:

* White/Pink Cardstock
* Pink Paint
* Paint Brush
* Pink/Brown Sharpie
* Scrapbook Stickers
* Scissors
* Glue Stick
* Baby Wipes
* Paper Plate

Directions:

* Simply paint your child’s foot completely pink and press it on the white cardstock. Set aside to let it dry completely.
* To give the look of little piggies – simply draw on eyes, ears and piggie noses with your Sharpies.
* Now trim out the front of the card and glue to a piece of cardstock, that is folded in half.
* To finish the card, add your scrapbook stickers to say “These Little Piggies…” on the front. Then add a special message inside and slip in an envelope for mailing.
