The Simple Directions:
The first step is to simply trace both of your child’s hands on the white cardstock. Then trim out each handprint with craft scissors.
The next step is to take the black Sharpie and draw around the cardstock handprint cutouts to give them each a more defined Mickey hand look {don’t forget the three lines in the center as well!}
Once done, staple a long piece of pretty ribbon to connect the handprints together and bam – you have a Disney themed hug that will easily fit in an envelope for mailing!
