Mother's Day Frame

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.

Next, I painted over the top and sides with the original paint color (not the paint mixed with white).

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.
