Has COVID-19 got you strapped for cash?
Is someones birthday coming up and you don't know what you're going to buy?
Here is how I created a memorable birthday gift for $10.00
What you will need:
$8 cork memo board from Kmart
$2 push pins from kmart
Metal ruler, cutting mat and a stanley knife OR
Scissors
A printer
Paper
Step 1
Gather together the photos you would like to use (I pinched my photos from my friends Facebook page)
Step 2
Lay them out in a design program - you can use Word or Publisher, I used Indesign.
Step 3
Print them out. I printed mine on 300gsm paper on my A3 printer at home. If you don't have a printer at home you can take your file to Officeworks and they will print it for you - just make sure you save it as a PDF file first
TIP: If you don't have access to a printer, you can use things you already have such as - a letter from your friend, a concert ticket, movie tickets, plane tickets.
Step 4
Cut your photos out using the cutting mat, metal ruler and stanley knife (or scissors.)
Step 5
Place your photos on the board how you would like them, this may take a bit of fiddling and overlapping to get it right.
Step 6
Once your happy with your layout - pin them down with the push pins!
You're done!
