{Photo Memory Game}

I had so much fun making this crafty gift for my little ones for Christmas. It is a memory game with photos of our family. I'm sure they will love playing with this soon.

Here are the instructions for any of you who want to give it a try.

Things you'll need:

-Bazzill chipboard squares, (2 inch)-you can find them online or at most craft stores

They come in packs of 20 and I used 2 packs-so I had 20 pairs of photos.

-20 photos-2 of each printed 2x2 inches.

-Scrapbook paper for the back-digi paper is best to print and use because you need the

backs to look exactly the same. I just cropped this polka-dot digi paper and printed

40 2x2 inch squares.

-glue stick, or some form of adhesive and Mod-Podge (what would we do without Mod-Podge!)

1. Print your photos and digi paper or cut out square for backs. I added a frame to my photos and a grunge frame to the back paper.

2. Glue both sides with adhesive.

3. Mod-Podge over the photos and back paper. I did one side of all and then let them dry for about 30 minutes or so and then mod-podged the other side.

Next step is to find a fun way to store your photo memory game. There are a lot of ways to do this, but I found this tin box with a lid at Robert's Crafts. I added some paper, ribbon and a little family photo. Loved making this!

P.S. I also thought it would be cute to make an alphabet matching game with photos of your family.
