Mother’s Day is just over two weeks away. Do you have a cute picture or printable you want to frame and give to your mom? Here is a simple way to personalize a frame that is perfect for any mom (mother, mommy, or mama).
I used a wood picture frame that measured about 7.5″ x 7.5″. For the base coat (the color of the words), I
mixed 1 part colored paint with 1 part white paint and then painted the
top of my board.

Once
that was dry, I added the letters I cut out of vinyl. I used a craft knife to cut the letters out of the center.

When that was dry, I carefully peeled up the letters and was left with this.
Then, I sanded lightly over the top and around the edges and glued on some fabric flowers.
I also added a cute printable.
There are awesome printables for Mother’s Day all over blog land. I found this one here.
This is way way cute. I love the fabric flowers.
Absolutely sweet!Love it!
Have a wonderful week!
