I’ve been busy adding more fun designs to my collection! Read on for the latest and greatest! But first…

What is a Fingerprint Poster??

Well I’m glad you asked! A fingerprint poster is an alternative to a traditional guestbook for events like birthdays, baby showers, and weddings. They’re great for thank you gifts to. I also have signature posters if you don’t want to have to deal with fingerprints 😉

Guests add their fingerprint and sign their name as a clever way to complete the picture. Then you can frame it and add it to the room decor as a keepsake of the day! Fingerprint trees are probably the most common (guests add their fingerprints as leaves), but the possibilities are endless—fingerprints can represent balloons, spots on a giraffe, flower petals, or fill in a pineapple.

There are lots of artists out there offering fingerprint posters in all kinds of fun designs. When you buy from MeganHStudio, you know it’s always an art print of my hand drawn originals.

You’ll even notice a few art prints I just finished up!

Baby Sprinkle Theme Ideas

Published on by meganhstudioLeave a comment

Babies come with so…much…STUFF! Especially the first one since you don’t know exactly what you’ll need and use. If you’re welcoming a second or third baby soon, they get to benefit from all the cribs, clothes, changing pads and burp cloths that you still have, so sometimes a full baby shower isn’t necessary! A “Baby Sprinkle” is a fun idea that allows guests to focus on the necessities and other fun details to welcome baby: diapers, wipes, personalized gifts, and nursery decor.

Check out these fun theme ideas for your Baby Sprinkle and the fingerprint posters to go along with them!

Donut Theme

Can’t go wrong with a donut party! Have guests add their fingerprint and sign their name to make sprinkles on this donut. I have options that don’t require fingerprints too!

Get it in the format you need:

Add a Fingerprint and Sign your Name
Sign a Sprinkle

We WHALEY Love You!

Have guests add their fingerprint and sign their name as water spouting above the whale!

Get it in the format you need:

Add your fingerprint and sign your name as a water drop

Rubber Ducky

A rubber ducky holding an umbrella works great for a baby sprinkle. Guests add their fingerprints and sign their name as raindrops. Lots of colors options available!

Get it in the format you need:

Add a fingerprint and sign your name as a raindrop

But wait, there’s more!

If these ideas don’t fit your baby sprinkle theme, I have customizable options of just about everything so I can make anything work with a simple change in text or colors 🙂 Plus, I’ve got the ink pads for fingerprints and pens for signatures too!

It’s Time Lapse Time: A Couple Cute Pups!

Published on by meganhstudioLeave a comment

This week we have a Boston Terrier and a Pit Bull that are ready to welcome their new little brother or sister (of the human variety, or course).

This pair will be a fun part of the baby shower since they’re featured on the fingerprint tree. Friends and family will add their fingerprint and sign their name as leaves on the tree—then it can be added to the baby’s nursery decor as a cute keepsake!

I’m so grateful to have customers who trust me to draw their pets. I’m definitely not a trained pet portrait artist, but I love putting my style own style on these fur babies! Check out the time lapse below to see how I drew these two characters 😉

I fit custom work in whenever I’m able to, so if you have something in mind, feel free to let me know!

In the meantime, here’s a few of the biggest sellers from last week to check out:

What is a Signature Poster??

Well I’m glad you asked! A signature poster is an alternative to a traditional guestbook for events like birthdays, baby showers, and weddings.

Guests add their signature to an element of the picture. Then you can frame it and add it to the room decor as a keepsake of the day! The possibilities are endless—signature can be added to rain drops, leaves, balloons, or sprinkles to match different themes!

There are lots of artists out there offering signature posters in all kinds of fun designs. When you buy from MeganHStudio, you know it’s always an art print of my hand drawn originals 😉

It’s Time Lapse Time: SomeBUNNY Loves You

Published on by meganhstudioLeave a comment

My daughter has a bunny named Fireball who is the cutest, orange French Lop bunny you’ve ever seen. Naturally for her 9th birthday party she went with a bunny theme and I worked on attempting to draw Fireball to feature on her invitations and fingerprint poster.

It honestly didn’t even cross my mind to put this drawing up in my shop, but last week I got a request from a customer who was planning a bunny themed nursery for her son and luckily I had JUST the thing!

So I figured we might as well try to make Fireball famous! You can find him in the time lapse below along with in my shop 😉

Get yours using the links below!

I can customize the colors, fonts, and text on these for you before I print on heavyweight cardstock and ship it right to you 🙂

Fun Baby-Q Ideas

Published on by meganhstudioLeave a comment

It can be tough to be pregnant in the heat of the summer, but what a great time to have a baby shower! The “Baby-Q” theme practically completes itself: buffalo check table cloths, mason jar centerpieces, and of course, BBQ for food. Continue reading for some fund ideas for invites, decor, guestbooks, and food at your Baby-Q!

Invites

If you’re slightly tech savvy, you can get some great designs digitally and customize them yourself. Plus, there’s always the tried and true invites that you can hand write the details in.

Classic and Simple
No need to hassle with digital copies!
Invites with extras

Decor

I say you can’t go wrong with buffalo check EVERYTHING! Some fun lanterns, a nice banner, and a few extras to tie everything together.

Lanterns
Banner
A whole set!

A Fun Way for Guests to Leave an Impression 😉

If you know me, I’m sure you know I’m unashamedly biased on this one, but you need a fingerprint poster at your Baby-Q. How many times are you going to experience this in your life?? ONCE! Soak in every second, and create a keepsake with your loved ones. Have guests add their fingerprint and sign their name on one of these designs, frame it and hang it in the nursery. Every time you walk in to see your little one’s smiling (…or screaming) face, you’ll also be greeted with the memories you made that day and the people you shared it with. Here’s a few of my designs that go well with a Baby-Q theme:

Mason Jar

No Baby-Q is complete without some fire flies in a mason jar, right?

Fingerprints are fireflies!

Get it in the format you need:

You light up my life!

Watermelon

Watermelon might as well be the mascot of summer.

Fingerprints are watermelon seeds!

Get it in the format you need:

One in a Melon

Whatever design you decide on, make sure it turns out great! Check out the free downloads available to help you avoid a fingerprint tree fail.

Pulled Pork Sliders – YUM!
Mac N Cheese Cups
You definitely need these Cooke’s from YaYa’s Bakeshop!

It’s Time Lapse Time: Out of this World!

Published on by meganhstudioLeave a comment

Today’s time lapse is astronomical! One of my return customers (that I am so thankful for!) came with a request for an astronaut with stars for guests to sign at a birthday party. The perfect keepsake! This time lapse walks you through part of the creative process. When you draw digitally, you get to test out different mediums…this one started with watercolor, and quickly went to a scratchy pencil look instead for some more defined shadowing and details on this space suit.

You can find this astronaut as an art print or a guestbook alternative in my shop! Customizable text and colors!

It’s Time Lapse Time: This Pup’s Whole World is about to Change!

Published on by meganhstudioLeave a comment

I’ve been drawing lots of pups lately! This week’s time lapse is a sweet Pit Bull mix who loves to chew on deer antlers and she is ready for the gender reveal party to figure out if she’s getting a little brother or sister.

She’s part of a fingerprint guestbook where guests will add either a pink or blue fingerprint to guess the gender of the baby. Then it can be framed and added to the nursery decor as a keepsake!

This customer actually came to me a few years ago for a custom fingerprint poster for her friend, and now it’s her turn! I love that I get to walk along side my customers and see how their families grow!

I’m sure you can tell, I’m definitely not a professional pet portrait artist, but I’ve got a simple style all my own 😉
