Hope You Have a Bomb Pop of a Day


Okay, I guess I have bomb pop's on the brain.. Maybe, I need to stop the ice cream man and buy myself one :0) Well, this is my son and daughter's 4th of July cards to their grandparents..

To create this card, I painted my kiddos feet with red, white, blue acrylic paint.. When they were dry I cut them out and glued popsicle sticks on to the backs of them.. I embossed the background paper with my Script Cuttlebug embossing folder... The sentiment was created on my computer.. To finish this card off, I did some tearing, inking (yellow & gold), used some decorative scissors, stickles, and a blue marker..
