I bought a pack of chipboard, it came in 10 sheets. I cut 2.5" squares.
I ended up with 60 squares (30 pairs). I went to my computer and picked out photos of all family members, I choose closeup head shots. I also added in a few of my own nature photographs of some animals. I printed out 2 of each photo at 2.5" inches each onto white cardstock. I also printed 60 card backs. I designed those in Photoshop and did Owen's name. I cut them all out and used matte decoupage on the back of each photo and glued to the chipboard. I made sure all edges were glued down really good. Then I painted a coat on top of the photo. After that dried I did the same with the back of the chipboard and glued on all the card backs (Owen). Then after that dried I did a second coat on each one!

This is such a brilliant idea! I bet Owen loves it! I have a little cousin named Owen (named after one of our favourite great uncles.) It's such a sweet name. LOVE the details & that you used chipboard for this. TOO clever!
