This project didn't require much sewing, but it was lots of fun to make. It's a memory game like the ones you can buy, only this one is personalized.
I bought these wooden pieces. They are about the size of playing cards. I had 24 cards.
When I was in visiting, I took lots of pictures of Caden's favorite things. I printed out two copies of each. Then I cut them just a little smaller than the cards.
Using Mod Podge, I glued the pictures onto the cards. Then I put three coats of Mod Podge over the pictures to fasten them down securely. I also cut scrapbook paper to fit on the back and used the same Mod Podge procedure.
Finally, I sprayed the cards with an acrylic sealer so they wouldn't get sticky.
Then I made a bag to keep the cards in, along with some little directions.
