I read about this craft project at Better Life Bags. It’s a template for a homemade photo flip book that gives you something to pray about for your husband for 31 days. It lists scripture verses and ideas for prayer. I thought it was so cute and would be very convenient to put on your desk or in the kitchen as a reminder to pray daily.
Well, Rebecca has a beautiful tutorial, and her template is set up perfectly to print on standard-size photos. I am not at all crafty and wanted to get started quickly, so I just made a flip book at Snapfish. It has a spiral binding, so you can can flip to the next page each day. All I did was upload the template Rebecca e-mailed me, made sure the photos were in the right order, and completed my order. I didn’t have to put in any text or anything.
I found a coupon and went through ShopAtHome.com to get cash back, so it wasn’t very expensive. I got it in the mail today, and I love how it turned out! If you wanted, you could sign up for a new account at Snapfish, get 50 free prints, and put them in a photo book you already have.
If you like Better Life Bags on Facebook and then leave a comment on her post with your e-mail address, she will send you the template for free. Be sure to like Frugal Femina on Facebook, too.

Summer, I’m so sorry! I just saw this comment. It wouldn’t let me use my free prints for the flip book, unfortunately. Of course, I had to try! c-:

I love it! I carry it around in my purse so when I’m waiting somewhere, I pull it out and see what’s on topic for the day.
