A few weeks before his birthday I emailed all of the family and asked people to email me something they love about him.
I thought of putting them together in a book but knew it would end up sitting on the shelf.
My husband came up with the idea for a collage. So, I created a document that said, "70 Reasons Why We Love Bruce" with little talk bubbles. I got almost double the responses but included at least one from each person then printed the total list for him.
I printed the document 12 X 16, matted it, framed it and shipped it off.
I wasn't able to be there for his party but I was told there was laughter and tears as he read through each one.
It was a great reminder, as I saw all of the responses coming in, of how wonderful a man he is and just how much he gives to others. I hope he treasures it.
I know many of you have asked for the template and I sent it out to a few. But, my hard drive has since crashed and I no longer have the file. I'm sorry I can no longer share it.
This is SUCH a good idea. :)

ReplyDeleteAmy, this is really cool. What software did you use? Did you just create this in a Word document? I'm trying to recreate something similar and would love to know what you started with.
ReplyDeleteWas this a template that you actually created, or is it established somewhere? If you created it, can you at least share the program you used and maybe we can all create our own? Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI created the template myself in Microsoft Powerpoint. They have conversation bubbles you can move wherever you want and then put a text box inside them. It was pretty simple.
DeleteThere are various gift ideas for birthday like a bouquet of flowers, a basket containing delicious chocolates and flowers, a showpiece or a birthday greeting card. These days, personalized greetings and gifts are in vogue because of additional personal touch. You can add your personal pictures to revive some memories and can add your own words through personalisation.
ReplyDeleteMy last order was from the 'Post My Greetings' and i am totally satisfied with their gifting services. Thanks to the team of professionals that made my work so easy by delivering the flowers to Uttar Pradesh on my behalf in a perfect shape.
What program did you use to create this??.... bbarbour1991@gmail.com

Hi wendy,
DeleteIs it still possible to create this template through paypal? Thanks so much
I just wanted you to know that I purchased a copy of the template from you and that it turned out fabulous. The hardest part was getting 70 people to comment, but some people wrote long letters with many things in them so I was able to use them 2-3 times. I gave it to my brother at his 70th birthday party and he was touched. He has ALS and it is hard to know what to give him. Besides the framed photo I also gave him a file of it so he could read it on the computer, as he does that much better than looking at a picture on a wall.
