I had a great idea for a gift for our youngest granddaughter back in November. I wanted to make a matching memory game for her with photos of our family. I thought and thought about how to have them printed so they would be sturdy. When I pitched the idea to my older girls they told me that they were already offered as games to print online, ha! (Apparently, not an original idea of mine!) I went looking and there were a few printer sites to choose from. I opted for Shutterfly and was really happy with the product. My plan for the pictures was to have a similar background and use a few simple props or do silly poses to make them fun. My son wasn't there when we took all the pictures so I used one I had of him from a while back. I loved that it worked out that there was one black background one.
This was really a lot of fun to do! Here are the photos I ended up using.
The games come in sets of 12 photos (24 cards) which worked out perfectly for our family!
It was a gift for the youngest, but they all love playing with it! ♥
I hope this gets you thinking about how you could take photos to make a gift for a little one in your life!
Actually, I kind of want to have these photos printed and on the wall for myself!
A dozen beautiful faces!! You never cease to amaze me, Jill Ruth ♥
