Wintry smartphone case with cute children’s fingerprints

All the material you need is an ink pad and sheet of white paper. And of course a child who fancies pressing their fingertips onto the ink pad first and then the paper.

Regardless of how the fingerprints are arranged on the paper, funny faces or animals can be drawn out of any oval fingerprint using just a few lines. Or you can draw a sun or Christmas tree on the paper for your child to then fill in with their fingerprints.

Once you have stamped a suitable picture using fingers, scan the motif in high resolution or take a photo of it in bright daylight.

The trick with a self-designed children’s fingerprint smartphone case is in using a picture where the template, in our case the reindeer, appears several times.

This is relatively easy to do:

• Open the Fotor online photo editing program (www.fotor.com)
• Choose “Design” on the start page.
• Select the poster (under “Events” or “Most Popular”).
• Import the scanned template (“Import Photos”) and drag it into the work area.
• Copy the template (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V or Apple-C, Apple-V) as often as you like and position the copied templates to suit.
• Click “Save” and save the file to your computer in the largest quality possible.

Once the motif has been finished in the photo editing program, it can easily be ordered as a smartphone case. You can choose from different designs and of course have lots of different pictures printed on a smartphone case instead of one single motif.

Tip: The “matt” option was chosen for the smartphone case shown.
