Stamp Art

Once again I was inspired by my sister Sarah to do this fun craft with my kids.  It was fast, fun, and cheap.  It's stamp art using potatoes and carrot sticks.  

We took 2 Russet Potatoes and cut them in half

and used a paring knife to make stamps on the ends

we made a: circle, flower, arrow, and heart

we used acrylic paint, card stock and paper plates

and then took it outside

(easier to hose off the artistic oopsies that always happens off the paper)

They loved stamping with the potatoes

and writing, or filling in with the carrot sticks

Taylor started to finger paint... here is her 'Monarch Butterfly'

Brent loved the hosing off part... this lead into the next activity of cooling off with the hose
