Just finished 'creating' some shredded paper to put in my Gd's gift bag for her 13th birthday. I used my document program and typed up personal things - such as her name, bdate, etc and then printed them out in different colors and fonts and font sizes. I then cut them apart into strips to make the 'shreds' -(a task which would be a lot easier if I had a paper cutter) but anyway I hope she enjoys her personalized shredding. I hope it will make her gift more meaningful to her as well. I also found pictures of the #13 online and printed them out for 'bag stuffing' too.
