How to make it
Use strong craft glue with a window open.
1Sort the pebbles
Spread them on a tray. Pick round ones for heads and bigger flat ones for bodies.
2Plan the picture
Arrange a family, a tree or birds on a branch on the card before gluing anything.
3Take a photo
Snap a phone photo of the layout so you can rebuild it.
4Glue down pebbles
Glue each pebble in place, one at a time. Press for 10 seconds.
5Add the twigs
Glue on twigs for arms, legs and branches.
6Write the message
Write a short line along the bottom, like the family name or "Love grows here".
7Frame it
Let it dry overnight flat, then put it in the shadow box.
Gather pebbles from a beach, river or your own garden. A stone from a family place makes it mean even more.
