To take baby's footprint without getting ink on those tiny feet, you can use this transfer print method.
How to Stamp Baby Scrapbook Footprints
Take a piece of clean plastic food wrap and gently wrap it around your baby's foot. The plastic wrap will cling to itself. so you don't need to use anything to tie the wrap on your baby's leg.
Press the plastic wrap gently into folds between tiny toes. Smooth out any wrinkles and gently wrap extra wrap gently around baby's ankles to hold it in place for a few minutes.
Place inkpad against baby's covered foot and press gently but firmly to apply a coat of ink.
Press inked foot against a clean sheet of paper, then set aside to dry. You've now made your transfer print. Remove plastic wrap from baby's foot and discard.
When baby's footprint is completely dry, you can cut it out and paste it into your baby's scrapbook or memory book, or scan it to make copies to use in a digital scrapbook or to design birth announcements.
