DIY: Polaroid Card

Allen and I finally had our first holiday together in 6 months! Along with his present, I made him a Polaroid card. It looks like a book and inside every Polaroid has a message. I first used Poladroid to get the effect, and then I uploaded it on to Photobucket to get the cool fonts. The cover of the card is suppose to be like a package, representing the past 6 months being a long distance relationship. I'm so glad we're in the same country now! Haha

The front of the card. I took things from old letters and packages.

The back

And then it started to bother me that the pictures kept sticking together, so I put in magazine pages between to keep them from sticking. I also used a basketball magazine, cause Allen likes basketball...


I added a few more things in the card but I forgot to take a picture of it before I sent it off. I added a real polaroid picture of me holding a sign that says "Happy Valentine's Day!" and an envelope tie in the front and back cover to bound them together.
