Fingerprint Heart Art Instructions:
Attach a heart outline to white paper with painter’s tape. We used a leftover heart outline from cutting a heart for another Valentine craft. To make a heart outline, cut a heart shape from a folded piece of paper.
Next, press your finger in washable paint. Press the painted finger onto white paper. Repeat.
Add as many fingerprints as you would like.
Let the paint dry completely. Then, carefully remove heart outline.
Decorate your fingerprint heart art if desired. I hope you enjoy making this fingerprint heart art craft with your kids.
Ways To Adapt This Craft
Instead of using washable paint, you can use stamp pads. Press your child’s fingerprint on the stamp pad and then press on the paper. This washable red stamp pad makes clean up easy.
You can use this technique to decorate Valentine’s Day cards for your family.
