* White Cardstock Paper
* Color Printer
* Green Washable Craft Paint
* Large Foam Paint Brush
* Small Paper Plate
* Baby Wipes
* Green Marker
optional materials – embellishments such as small shamrock & clover stickers
Directions:
* First things first – print out the CUTEST CLOVER keepsake printable, that is listed above in the supply list. You need one print per keepsake craft you want to make today.
* Next up – grab that washable green craft paint, as well as your foam paint brush and paper plate.
* Squirt a good amount of craft paint on the paper plate.
* Next – pick one of your child’s hands {left or right – doesn’t matter for this craft!}
* Paint the palm and fingers of your child’s hand completely.
* Working quickly, press it down in the center of the printable. Be sure to wiggle each finger as well!
* Now carefully lift up your child’s hand from the printable and clean off the excess paint from their hand, with a baby wipe & a quick trip to the sink.
* When the handprint is dry enough on the paper, start embellishing it. Start off by using the green marker to give the handprint a stem and make it look like a “shamrock.” I also decided to add some more shamrock stickers around the handprint design as well.
* When you are done decorating the piece of paper, go ahead and display/gift away proudly your child’s beautiful handprint CLOVER keepsake piece!
