Love those little popsicles images too!!
I added some ribbon to the back, and hung it in my daughters' room:

This is a side view of the frame:

I found an awesome sentiment to go with my project:

 Here is a second post for today.  
This fun little gift box goes with the card I made for my mom that I shared with you earlier today. If you missed it, you can find it here.



For added cuteness, I stamped a sweet little Peachy Keen face:

I really hope she enjoys her Mother's Day gift!!

Hello crafters!
Happy Wednesday!
Today I am sharing the card I posted at the Joy's Life Design Team Blog.
I made this super fun (and easy) card for my mom for Mother's Day. As you may remember in my post a couple of weeks ago, I mentioned that my mom had foot surgery. She is very much looking forward to wearing sandals/flip flops once again... after all, it has been over 10 years since the last time she did!!
I thought this card would be perfect:

I used some foam tape to give the flip flops dimension:

Here is my supply list:
Flip Flop SVG: Silhouette online store
Sentiment stamp: Joy's Life Pun in the Sun
Patterned paper: Stampin Up
Solid cardstock: Bazzill
Prima flowers
