I think the first concern is always for your babies safely, so make sure you buy a non-toxic stamp pad to start with.
Before you start, think carefully about what your goal is here. Do you intend to make a number of prints at once or would you rather just get one set and scan them and use the scan to print out as many copies as you need?
I would start with a well-fed sleepy baby. It would be best if you had already gathered everything you need and have them together on a table including wipes for you baby’s hands and feet.
You will also need good quality Cardstock and paper.
The best idea is to actually stamp Baby’s feet onto the ink pad and then press the card onto Babies feet. Try not to wriggle the foot around at all, and if the card gets stuck, pull the babies foot off the card not the other way around.
Now give it a good long time to dry before you try to use it…………..maybe 24-48 hrs. However don’t let Babies foot dry, get started with the wipes ASAP or else you will find yourself explaining the color of his hands to everyone you come in contact with for a few days.
The prints would look wonderful in a frame and would make a lovely gift to give to grand parents and friends.
