Then, carefully place your hand with your thumb up and your fingers together on the blue piece of construction paper. This will be the body and head of the cardinal.
Next, use a paint brush and more red paint to fill in the handprint shape.
While you wait for the red paint to fully dry, find a twig or branch. Try to find a branch that is about 10-11 inches long.
After the red paint has dried, carefully hot glue the branch onto the blue piece of construction paper just under the cardinal.
Next, use a q-tip to add painted snow flakes on the edge of the branch and around the cardinal.
Then, cut a small triangle beak with the yellow construction paper and glue it on the cardinal’s head. (The cardinal’s head is your thumb.)

After the glue has fully dried, use a sharpie or marker to add a small line on the beak. Then draw the cardinal’s wing. Finally, use the marker to draw an eye.
That’s it! I hope you enjoyed making your pretty Winter Painted Handprint Cardinal Project!
