Christmas Gift 2

You know what would be great for dads? I do. Once again, this craft is inspired by Pinterest and is usually used for Father's Day. You can make a booklet held together by a split ring. I used an old deck of cards to make my booklet. On each card, I wrote one reason I love my dad. I also included a title page. Here's how I did it. The very first thing I did was hole punch each card at the top left corner. I cut out 52 tiny squares of scrapbook paper. I wrote the reason on that. Then, I taped the scrapbook paper to the card. This craft can be tricky, though. I had to sit down and work on it for four hours at a stretch. And when you insert the cards into the split ring, you have to do it one by one and it really makes your fingers slippery and sore for a long time. I want to warn all of you to think twice before doing this craft because it looks fantastic and your dad will keep it forever, but keep the cons in mind. Below I'll show you my final product and a few reasons. 

Those were just a few reasons, but keep in mind I have 52. I've already wrapped my brother's and my mom's gifts. I didn't do a post on my brother's gift because I thought finding the right gift for parents can be tricky and challenging. Once again, be sure to vote on my new poll ASAP.
