Fingerprint Hyacinth Craft supplies needed.

To make our fingerprint hyacinths you will need cardstock in purples, blue, and green, paint in corresponding colors, a green marker, scissors, and a glue stick.

Fingerprint Hyacinth Craft Step by Step Directions

Begin by cutting a rectangle from your color cardstock of choice for the base of your flower.

Cut base flower rounded rectangle shape.

Round the edges of the rectangle on the two ends.

Draw a green line down the center of the cardstock.

Draw a line with the green marker going down the center of the cardstock.

Gather paint for your hyacinth.

Now, gather paint in the same color as your cardstock. If you chose purple cardstock, use purple paint, and so on. Pour some paint on a flat surface. We like to use a paper plate.

Begin forming fingerprints down the cardstock.

Then dip your finger in the paint and press your fingerprints going down the cardstock.

Add matching fingerprints on both sides of the green line.

Add matching fingerprints on both sides of the green line. Let the paint dry completely.

Cut stem and leaf shapes from green cardstock.

While the paint is drying, cut a long, thin strip from green cardstock. Also cut two wispy leaf shapes.

Glue stem and leaves in place.

Finally, once the paint is dry, glue the stem to the back of the flower. Add the leaves along the stem, framing the hyacinth.
