Card- Birthday Flip Flop

ETA: I have noticed over at the Fun-Frilled blog, they are having a challenge of making a card that reminds you of Summer. Who doesn't think a flip flop just screams Summer?! So I decided to enter this card for it. So go by and check out the challenge.
Hey everyone! OK June is a busy birthday, anniversary, father's day month! I made another birthday card for another niece today. She turned 9 today. I found a cute card over at dannisdoodles, and fell in LOVE with it! She is so amazingly crafty! (Is that a word?) Go by and check her out!
I traced my son's flip flop from last year (it was the smallest one we had around here). I thought it would be harder than it was to make,but it wasn't, so I will be making more of these in the future! The patterned paper and the flowers were from my scrap stash, I thought it would be great for this flip flop! So here it is!

Supplies:

Paper- My Mind's Eye, White CS

Stamp- PTI- mega mixed messages

Ink- SU!- pixie pink

Accessories- Flowers cut from Cricut, Button- Paper Studio, RibbonFX- ribbon, eyelet's- WalMart, Crocheting String- WalMart, mini scallop scissors
