I made these for one of my grandmothers and an aunt. The flowers are bath sponges that I found at Michaels for $2 each. The bottom is filled with bath beads which came from the Target $1 spot. I put the beads and the styrofoam for support into a small plastic bag and then put that into the pot before sticking the flower into the styrofoam to avoid the beads spilling out. I used the Wings in My Garden Cricut Cartridge for the leaves attached to the stick. They were cut at real dial size 1 and then stamped with MS stem green ink. The flower pots came from the Target $1 spot. This cute Mother's Day gift was fun to make and they cost around $5 each to make.
The lady bug card was still a little bit wet from the stickles when I took this picture. This card was created on the Gypsy with the Create a Critter Cartridge. On the inside, I added a handwritten sentiment that says:
Don't want to bug you, but I wanted to say "Have a Happy Mother's Day!"
