**The Plan**

‎I had five people to reach out to; my father who is a farmer, my brother who is an engineer, my cousin who is a doctor, a neighbour who is a copywriter and my sister who dreams of becoming a chef. ‎ **

Step 1

**| -| First, I got colourful cardboard papers and cut them into rectangles. Each height was 6 CM and width 10 CM. I folded them in halves. ![Lumii_20250502_132656203.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZBzJLVc9V3B4KiK7RJ7uPWjd1KZCmRaM32JrrYAN7sU9/Lumii_20250502_132656203.jpg)_{The coloured cards folded in halves}| -| **

Step 2

**| -| Next, I sketched head wears and tools to pair with each card. For the farmer, he will need a straw hat and rake. There was also a cap with a cross for the medical personnel, a table lamp and book for the copywriter, as well as a toque and spatula for the chef. These consumed a lot of my time as I tried to get the drawing accurate. ![Lumii_20250502_132703661.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaKVA5kYL2xxXJsAtSs8wbdZDQCvkEXfEpbNqH694U9HN/Lumii_20250502_132703661.jpg)_{The items to pair with the card}| -| **

Step 3

**| -| Once everything was done, I coloured them and glued each part to the card before inscribing my messages inside the card. Each person had a personal message to suit their profession and personality. ‎

‎While working, a visiting family friend had asked me if I was working on a nursery school assignment which I found funny. I replied that it was a gift card for Labour Day. Then offered to create one for them. Since our family friend is a lecturer, I made a card with a graduation hat and books for lecturer before writing a short sweet message. They smile and hug I received told me everything I needed to know. ‎**

Step 4

**| -| I invited my sister for lunch today. Then I used that opportunity to gift her the card. She has been so excited to see the craft. She thinks it is super creative. Do you agree? ‎ ![Lumii_20250502_132940477.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQnGMwW92BAUbqKsudG44JsRmdcmemHpYqyWsruRprfGB/Lumii_20250502_132940477.jpg)_{A selfie with the cards before distributing them today.}
