Make it Monday: Daisy Thanks You Cards!

Hello friends! It’s already 35 days since we came home from hospital, but who’s counting?! 😉 We’ll both be glad once Thursday comes and the final visit to the specialist is made. With people to thank, I knew I wanted to make some cards with daisies so I used the Daisy Lane stamp set and coordinating Medium Daisy punch and stamped Bumble Bee ink onto Daffodil Delight cardstock:

For the vase I chose a jar from the Everyday Jars Framelits (retired) and experimented with possible styles in Terracotta Tile ink: 

I didn’t use any of these first attempts but went with stamping the whole ink pad onto Whisper White cardstock …

… then cutting it out with this jar framelit:

I usually need to spend time ‘playing’ to work out exactly where I want to position the different elements on the card front: 

I added texture using 2 embossing folders on the cardstock; Tasteful Textile for the background panel and Subtle on the jar:

I like the final card 🙂 

MEANWHILE … my order of masks from Mucky Duck arrived (not sure what Paul will think of the designs as 2 are for him, but I like them!):

Thanks so much for visiting me today; I’m a little late but it’s still Monday in New York!! I really appreciate you spending time here 🙂 If you have any questions please ask and I hope this has given you a little inspiration!  Megan xo
