Continue this process until you’ve created all of the finger/thumb prints that are required to bring your Spring creations to life! Note: It is incredibly easy to mix colors on the ink pads, if your finger is covered in one color of ink and you place it on another color, before cleaning it off.Now, press your finger down firmly on the card stock to make a colored fingerprint.
Grab a sheet of white card stock, select a color of ink on the stamp pad, and press your finger (or thumb) into the ink pad.We went with flowers, butterflies, bumblebees, birds, frogs, caterpillars, spiders, snails, and beetles! Let your kiddos flip through Ed Emberley’s book to select all of the Spring-themed plants and/or animals that they would like to include in their fingerprint art project.Ed Emberley’s Complete Funprint Drawing Book.Washable Ink Stamp Pad (we like this rainbow one from Melissa & Doug).Spring-Themed Fingerprint Art Project Supplies: And I know that our daughter loved having a reference to glance at every now and then. If you have little ones who get easily frustrated or discouraged by the drawing process…because they think that their drawings don’t look exactly right…this book is the perfect tool! In all honesty, I’m not a very confident artist myself, so I really enjoyed having all of the simple, step-by-step drawing guides right in front of me. 🙂 This book makes the creative drawing process so simple and enjoyable – for kids and adults alike! I mean, who knew that it would be so easy to bring plants and animals to life with just a few fingerprints and some little black squiggles?
This book…complete with 80-pages of whimsical drawings…is a true gem! And if you don’t already have a copy, you seriously need to get one. Inspiration for this project struck after we purchased Ed Emberley’s Complete Funprint Drawing Book. And the end result was this incredibly fun and colorful Spring-Themed Fingerprint Art Project! Needless to say, it was high time that we got creative with fingerprints again. In fact, the only project that I can remember is our cute little Bunny & Chicks Fingerprint Craft, from Easter of 2017. Have you ever created fingerprint art with your kiddos?!? We’ve done lots of hand-print and foot-print crafts over the years, but very little fingerprint art.
