Finding the perfect Valentine's Day gift can be tricky. Not only do I have to get one from me, but I also have to make sure that the kids have something to give their daddy. This year, I decided to give him one gift from all three of us. While there are some great Valentine's Day gifts for men out there, I opted to make something special this year. I started by interviewing both of my children. All of the questions related to their dad, and the answers were hilarious! Once I had the text I needed, I got to work on the design. Using Adobe Illustrator, I used photos of the kids with their dad as the background. I used sepia tone and adjusted the opacity so that the text would stand out when added. On another layer, I added the text and put the kid's answers a different font. When I was satisfied with the layout, I printed the pictures and put them in a double frame. Happy Valentine's Day!
