Here's what you do:

Cut a piece of decorative card stock to 5" x 7" and insert it into the picture frame under the glass.

Arrange the paper flowers on top of the glass. Use scissors to trim the green paper flowers to create leaves. Use Craft Glue Dots to adhere the flower arrangement to the glass. Leave a space for the cupcake liner flower.

Use a Nestability and Big Shot to cut the photograph into a circle that will fit inside the cupcake liner. Use Pop Up Dots to adhere the photograph. Place the cupcake liner on top of one of the flowers and secure with a Glue Dots.

Use jewel strips to create stems. Use Pop Up or Craft Dots to secure the jewels to the flower centers.

Stamp a Mother’s Day sentiment on the paper strip using Momento ink. Trim the end and secure with Pop Up Dots.

Here's what it looks from the side - you can really see how the Pop Up Dots add dimension to the frame!

Flowers and kid smiles don’t last forever. Create this home décor keepsake to remember tiny hands and cheerful voices for years to come.
