I am SO ready for winter to be over & spring to arrive - after several days of 60 degree weather we are back down to FRIDGID temps !! So I decided to re-visiting 2 more REALLY OLD SU sets and at least bring spring to my crafts.
First I cut a strip of White stock 5" by 10" and stamped the daisys over the front. then I folded up the bottom third to form a pocket and stamped some more daisys plus my greeting on the newly exposed piece. I used the narrowest double sided tape to seal the sides and added eyelets on the corners. I added random highlights over the leaves & flowers with glitter glue. I strung raffia through the eyelets for my bow and tucked a packet of flower seeds into the pocket. I finished the card by mounting first on goldenrod and then aqua to give it all stability and to pick up the colors from the seed packet.

The raffia adds a real gardener's finishing touch to this, Linda. Gosh, seeds are much cheaper over there than they are here!! Your old daisy stamps are still looking great, and I love the added sparkle. I see you dug out some eyelets too ;-).
