TIPS & TRICKS:
1. 52 Reasons Why I Love You
- I had several decks of cards at home so I used all the Jokers from them for this tutorial. Mix and match a bunch of broken deck of cards, in order to recycle them.
- If you don't have printed or wrapping paper, you can even customize your design by simply making stripes or polka dots on coloured paper.
- In order to secure the entire deck together, a keychain ring would do the job as well.
- Leave a border on all four sides of the card for the number and suit to be seen, no need to cover it with wrapping paper from edge to edge.

2. Popsicle Stick Photo Card
- Play around with colourful sticks, you can even create a rainbow or a gradient effect.
- Be careful when you write the message on the card. Write it only where the stick is placed or else you will create a hole on the paper where there is a gap between the two sticks.
- You can even stick stickers to decorate the the plain side of the card.

3. You've Got Mail
- Opt for the biggest size of clothes clip as it allows more room for you to write the message.
- Use bleed proof markers, as the words tend to spread on the wooden stick as well the paper.
- Use fabric glue or a glue with low water consistency as it will prevent the ink from spreading and blurring out the message;
