Craft Supplies:
- SUNFLOWER PRINTABLE ON BOX.COM
- Color Printer
- Brown Cardstock Paper
- Yellow Cardstock Paper
- Pencil or Pen
- Craft Scissors
- Glue Stick, Tape Runner or Handheld Stapler
Directions:

- If desired, you can instead print it on white cardstock paper and color in the middle of the flower piece instead.
- Anyways – trim out the circle piece and discard excess paper.
- Now grab your several sheets of yellow cardstock paper and trace your child’s hand SEVERAL times, in separate locations, on the paper. Depending on the size of their little hand, you might need 10-15 handprints.
- When done tracing, trim them all out.
- Now it’s time to start assembling! Grab your choice of adhesive and all the paper cutouts.
- Start off by laying the large brown circle piece upside down, on your flat surface.
- To finish off your Paper Sunflower Keepsake, start off by gluing the handprint cutouts {the flower petals} all around the edge of the circle to make the flower shape. You will want the fingertips facing outward to create petals {FYI – you might have to cut out more handprint cutouts once you start putting it all together!}
