Handprint Bouquet Cards
There’s just something timeless about handprint crafts, isn’t there?
Seeing those tiny fingers preserved on paper is a simple yet powerful reminder of childhood's fleeting magic. And when you turn those handprints into a beautiful bouquet of dried flowers? It’s a keepsake worth treasuring.
This nature-inspired kids’ craft uses simple supplies—just cardstock, glue, scissors, and dried flowers.
It’s low-mess, low-prep, and full of meaning. Whether you use real dried flowers, paper blooms, or even stickers, this project is a sweet way to preserve a moment in time.
Read on to see how we made them.
Supplies:
2 sheets of cardstock (use contrasting or complementary colors)
Pencil
Scissors
Glue
Dried flowers and/or pressed leaves
Directions:
Trace your child’s hand. Use a pencil to outline their hand and wrist on one sheet of cardstock.
Cut it out. Carefully cut along the traced line to create your hand shape.
Create the card. Fold the second piece of cardstock in half (hamburger-style) to form a greeting card base.
Glue the hand. Gently bend the fingers of the handprint inward toward the palm (like it's holding something), then glue the wrist/base of the hand onto the front of the card.
Add your bouquet. Tuck and glue your dried flowers, leaves, or alternative blooms into the handprint to look like a gathered bouquet.
Personalize it. Once the glue has dried, open the card and add a sweet message inside. Then gift it to someone you love!
