thumbprint guestbook

so i saw some of these on etsy but again didnt want to pay$60 for one so i bought some paper, some pens, and a stamp pad.  my dad is pretty good at copying drawings so i had him draw it for us!  turned out pretty good!

the only issue i ran into was the language/generational barrier between me and my dad ;)  he didnt really understand what i was trying to accomplish and was asking me if i wanted him to draw the balloons in.  i think i also want something that guests can write longer messages in.  this thumbprint guestbook will be something we can hang up but i want some messages too!  haha
