I want to take some of my nephew's handprints and display them with some photos. First I need to catch him ; )

I figured scrap bookers would have ideas on the best type of paper to use and the best type of ink. I need something that will wash off readily yet not fade, blah, blah... I'm sure someone has cornered this market.

thanks for any ideas,
Ronda

Using a Versamark pad might turn out - it goes on clear & leaves a subtle 'wet' look to the paper you use. Depends on how dark you need it to appear, but there would be no color on his hand :o)

You could also then apply chalks on the print if you wanted a colored print :flower1:
