I’m a sucker for handprint art, especially around Christmas! Let’s make those little hands into antlers and create reindeer handprint art with our Cricut!
I’ve always made handprint art with my boys, as a matter of fact, I have a little collage up at Christmas. So cute. But my biggest issue with making it long ago, was always my painting skills on the details. Now I use my Cricut for all the shapes and decorations so problem solved!
