Handprint Butterfly Keepsake Craft Idea

Today’s Handprint Butterfly Keepsake w/free printable template is super easy to make within minutes and it’s relatively inexpensive too. If you have a printer in your home – you are well on your way to pulling this idea together and creating a great keepsake to treasure for years to come {plus the finished piece fits nicely in a scrapbook too!}

In this post, I’ve included a FREE gender-neutral printable template, so all you need to do is print the file, grab some paint and have your children add their handprints to complete the craft. It’s so simple, you have NO excuse NOT to do it!

So don’t “fly” away just yet! Download the file below and get to work on creating this adorable keepsake today. Then place in a beautiful frame or in a scrapbook for the lucky receiver.

Whatever you do with it – I hope you enjoy making it with your child! Happy crafting my friends! #gluedtomycrafts
