"I love you this much" Father's Day craft!

Here’s a simple and creative card you can make with your kids for Father’s Day. I pinned this idea a while back, but the link to the original source had been lost. Thanks to Google, I’ve tracked it down – it seems the idea may have originated at A Day in my Life.

And here’s our version. We went with hand-stamping for more of a home-made look.

Step One: Trace your child’s hands onto a sheet of coloured card.

Step Two: Cut out. Because my kids are little, I just had them cut around the handprint in a big circle, then I finished them off. We didn’t want our cardboard hands losing any fingers! (or our real hands, for that matter…)

Step Three: Stamp “I love you” on the left hand. You could also use letter stickers or rub-ons.

Step Four: Colour in!

Step Five: Cut a strip of card in a contrasting colour, and concertina-fold to create 8 sections. Stamp “THIS MUCH”, using one letter per section.

Step Six: Glue the ends of the accordian-folded strip to the inside of each hand.

Step Seven: Open up!

I’m so blessed to have a hubby who is an amazing Dad – very hands-on, and just loves his kids to bits. The delight on their faces when he gets home from work just melts my heart.

Here’s to all the wonderful Dads!
