52 Reasons I Love You // Handmade Gift


For Christmas I made '52 reasons I love you' to give to both my parents. I got my brother to join in too so Mum and Dad each got two sets. This was such a good gift and bought my mum to tears when she read them. They are very easy and cheap to make but its actually quite hard to come up with 52 different reasons.



 1) First I just bought a whole heap of cheap cards from the $2 shop. I figured there was no need to get good quality ones seeing as they are just getting ruined. This pack was handy as it came with extra cards (11,12,13) so if mistakes were made they were able to be used.
 
 2) Next I used PVA glue and coated where the piece of paper was going to be stuck down.
3) Then I Cut pieces of paper that will fit inside the border and glue it in place. Be warned this is quite a lengthy process but once you get a flow going it is fine.
 


 
Unfortunately I can not find the photo of my final product but here is one I made for my Friend.
