Hey Scrappers, another wonderful day at She's A Sassy Lady! This is Kate from Sassy and Scrappy with a fun gift or home decor item. I decided to alter a picture frame for my post today. Since Spring has arrived and we're nearing Mother's Day it seemed like a great time to once again pull out the Mother's Day Bouquet Cricut cartridge. I absolutely love this cartridge and have found many uses for it. If you're interested you can find some of my other projects with this cartridge here and here.



I used my Lori's Garden cartridge and my Imagine to print the text script on a couple pieces of cardstock. I'm in love with this feature.

I cut out 4 different styles of flowers on my 4 pieces of cardstock. Here they are before being layered and embellished.

I used two different kinds of glue on this project, a liquid glue and my glue gun. I used the glue gun to adhere the flowers to the picture frame. I figured it would give me a little more time to put the flowers where I wanted them and would allow me to move the flower if needed. I also used black, white and yellow buttons, as well and white and black pearls.

To add dimension to my flowers and each layer I used a paintbrush to curl each layer. It adds to the 3-D effect of each project and brings it to life.

A close-up of the top right side of the frame.

Although I twisted the frame around for the picture, this is actually the bottom left.

Another view of the frame on my shelf. Yes, this is me and a sweet little family friend.

What a WONDERFUL gift idea and look how beautiful this frame turned out. Any mother would love to receive this as a gift. Thank you so much for sharing this great gift idea and tutorial with us today.....
and I would like to add that if you don't have that cart, George Basic Shapes has a flower that is close to this that could give a similar effect.
