My 5 year old daughter put together this project with me to send to her Grandparents. We chose our favorite 2 pictures from our trip to visit my parents this summer.
My 5 year old daughter put together this project with me to send to her Grandparents. We chose our favorite 2 pictures from our trip to visit my parents this summer.
Then I precut the photo mats for her out of cardstock and scrapbook paper. The paper I cut for pictures that were 4×6 so I cut the papers 4.5×6.5 and 5×7. Then I had my daughter use a photo safe glue stick to attach the pictures to the frames.
She then made a two more personal sections. On one she used stickers to write Nana and Poppy and then illustrated a Family Portrait with them. On the other section we talked about what to say and wrote it out together. Then she copied it and wrote Happy Grandparent’s Day on it. We then cut out a few flowers from the paper to add as accents to the paper.
Then we cut the ribbon to hang the pictures from. She spaced them out for me and then I hot glued it while she was cleaning up our supplies. We put it into a large manila envelope and mailed to my parents for a cute surprise for her Grandparents!
Happy Grandparents Day!
