What can I use if I don't have paint, stickers, or a printer?
If you don’t have paint, stickers, or a printer, draw bright shapes with markers or crayons, use magazine cutouts glued on as 'stickers', and paste a phone photo onto paper with glue instead of printing.
My paint makes the paper wrinkly or my photo won't stay stuck — what should I do?
If paint wrinkles the paper or a photo won't stick while you prepare a flat picture, let paint dry flat under a clean book, use heavier paper or cardstock, and secure photos with a glue stick or clear tape on the back before decorating.
How can the activity be changed for younger or older kids?
For toddlers, have an adult pre-cut paper, hand them crayons and help tape the note, while older kids can take and edit a photo, add collage elements, or write a longer note before sharing on DIY.org.
How can we make the picture extra special or keep it longer?
To personalize and preserve your finished creation, add a decorated envelope or simple frame, laminate or use clear packing tape over the front for protection, or turn it into a small booklet by stapling multiple decorated pages and then photograph the result to post on DIY.org.
