Christmas Tree on Car Keepsake
Create a keepsake gift with your kiddo today! This footprint Christmas tree on car craft is the perfect addition to your holiday decor.
Craft Supplies:
- Christmas Car Printable
- White Cardstock Paper
- Color Printer
- Washable Green Craft Paint
- Paint Brush
- Small Paper Plate
- Baby Wipes
- Markers
Directions:
- First grab the Footprint Christmas Tree printable.
- Print it out, in color, on a single sheet of white cardstock. You only need ONE print per keepsake craft.
- Now grab your green craft paint and paper plate.
- Squirt some on a paper plate and pick one of your child’s feet {any foot will do!}
- Paint the bottom of your child’s foot completely green.
- Working fast, press the painted foot on top of the car, in the printable. You want the print to look like it’s floating on top of the car.
- Now lift up their foot and quickly remove excess paint from their foot with a few baby wipes & a quick trip to the tub.
- After cleaning off their foot, it’s time to embellish it! Go ahead and grab your various embellishments to give the green “footprint” on the paper, the look of a Christmas tree tied to the top of a car. I did ours with Sharpie markers and small rhinestones.
- When done decorating, have children sign the bottom somewhere so you can remember who and when it was made.
- Then display/gift away proudly!
