Hand & footprint angel

I found this great project- two hand and footprint Angel- online but there was no place to source it to. 

The quote says "Let us run with patience the race that is set before us." It is a verse from the Bible. Hebrews 12 1.

I love this Angel so much I attempted to have my children do it.

I lightly sketched with pencil where the heart and the Halo would go. My seven-year-old took it from there...

If you are having your children do this project, I would suggest paper that is wider than a standard 8 1/2 by 11 sheet.

May you enjoy this project as much as my daughter did and cherish it as long as I will!
