By the way, this is on craft I bet some Moms would have an awesome time making and wearing as well.
You will need:

Knife
Paint brush
We have all made potato prints before and apple prints are very similar. Apple prints will be a little smaller, unless you are lucky enough to come across some giant apples!
To make a lady bug print with an apple you wan to first cut your apple in half. Then cut it in half again.
Squirt some of the high quality red fabric paint out onto a plate. Dip the quarter of the apple in the paint and press it onto the front of the t shirt.
Tip: Use a piece of poster board inside the shirt to keep the apple print from bleeding through to the back of the t shirt.
Now, Squeeze some black fabric paint out on a second plate. Dip the wood end or wrong end o the paint brush into the black paint. Dab this on the red back of the lady bug print on the t-shirt.
This will make the spots on the lady bug craft.
Flip the paint brush over and use more black paint to add some feet.
Now, take one of the other quarts of the apple and cut it so that the flat side is a circle.
Dip this apply stamp in the black ink and press onto the shoulders of the lady bug to make her head.
You can use the black paint to add antennas.
Dip a clean wrong en d of a paintbrush into white paint and dab on the lady bug face to make the eyes. Another dip in black can add the pupils!
The two reminding piece of apple make the perfect leaf shape for the lady bug to be standing on.
For visual interest use two shades of green fabric paint. Dip on apple in one green and stamp on the t shirt. Repeat with the remaining half to finish the leaf.
Let dry, heat seal the paint with an iron, and you are finished!
