Ink / paint for doing baby hand and foot prints

Hello, can anyone recommend a product to get a nice detailed print from my baby? I am assuming ink is the way to go but not certain. I would really like fuschia pink!

Anyone have any good experiences of doing this, I am anticipating mess!

Thanks, I'm new to this board and it has already inspired me to get my sewing machine out and use all those scraps of fabric kept for a rainy day!

Crayola "Beginnings" felt tip pens give a surprisingly good, detailed print - far better than paint, at any rate - and has the added advantage that it wil wash out of clothes, too!

Oh lovely, I'll give them a go. There will be various colours too which is a bonus as I don't want to spend a fortune on a special kit with just one ink pad (the reviews aren't great either).

Lipstick was PERFECT,and if you want fuchsia pink, I'm sure somebody's makeup bag will oblige
