I think this is a great card. Thanks for sharing.
I don’t understand if it says “free print” why I couldn’t print it? I wanted some students to print cards for the homeless. How unfortunate.
The children have to make the card with their hands and then apply some of the patterns that you access by clicking on the small picture right below the instructions. Hope this helps..
