Introduction: "Memory" Card Game

The perfect homemade and completely personalised gift for that special someone! These "memory" cards will undoubtedly provide fun for all involved whilst creating a nostalgic feeling with the memory filled photos on each card. This gift, being so easy and fun to make, will bring joy to all those who receive it, weather it be family, friends or your significant other. The pictures included can be filled with humour, sentimentality, old memories or even some romance... everything is up to you!

Rules :

Like the classic game played with normal number cards.

All cards must be faced down on the table and players take turns to flip two cards at a time to find the pairs.

Once all the cards are gone the player with the most pairs is the winner!

Step 1: Step 1: Choose Your Photos!

This is the fun part! Simply choose the photos you wish to include (depending on the desired effect of the gift) and copy/scan/print them to the correct sizing for your cards (mine were 5x7 cm) and make sure you have 2 of each photo.

You don't necessarily need to use photos -quotes, drawings, lyrics and anything else can be included instead!

Step 2: Step 2: Making the Cards

What you need:

-Ruler

-Pencil

-Scissors or paper cutter

-Card or paper to use as the card

Cut the card into equally sized pieces using above tools. I cut mine to 5x7 cm but you can have what ever size you like.

Note ~The backs of the cards must be identical for the game to work effectively.

Step 3: Step 3: Cut Up Your Photos!

Cut up all you photos to the appropriate size, ensuring there are two of each photo.

Step 4: Step 4: Get Sticking!

Stick all your photos to the back of the prepared cards!

Step 5: Step 5: Make Some Packaging

Find a little box somewhere which can be used as packaging for your "memory" cards.

Pimp it up a little by adding a splash or paint or covering in paper so you have a nice little gift box!

Step 6: Step 6: Make It Pretty!

Use any decorations you have and get creative to make your gift look extraordinary!

Then you're all done! You've now got a beautiful personalised gift bound to bring a smile to someone's face!
