DIY St. Patrick Day Cards — Leprechaun Handprint Cards

Post by Aimée Lowry & Bettijo B. Hirschi from PagingSupermom.com

We are lucky that one set of grandparents are right here in Phoenix with us, but my husband’s parents live up in Wyoming. We get to see them only a couple times a year, and so I thought it would be fun to send them a little St. Patrick’s Day surprise of DIY leprechaun handprint cards. I had my little leprechaun’s help me make these hand print cards that I know Grandma is going to love.

Print and download our free template which includes a nameplate so Grandma can identify those handprints. Using a foam brush, cover each child’s hand with green craft paint and stamp it onto the cut cards. Miss Modette’s hand (she is not quite two) was the most difficult to stamp (obviously!), so I had a few extra cards ready to go and then picked my favorite.

If you have more than one little leprechaun, tape the cards together leaving a very small space between them so you can easily fold them up accordion style. Mail in a size A7 envelope.
