One thing that has helped me cope with this whole “sheltering-in-place” order is getting out for a (solo) walk through the neighborhood. I have my phone camera ready and look for opportunities to shoot nature photos that bring me joy. We live in a town called Granite Bay. It is aptly named for all the granite rock croppings everywhere and we are next door to a lake. Here is a photo I snapped of some happy daisies among the granite. Just the inspiration I need to get crafty with my Daisy Punch and Cardstock!
Here is the card that I made ~

Love your daisies! Both the card and in nature!
Great card. I need to use my daisy punches more. Today it is dreary and raining off and on so your card was a nice hint of spring. We do have a couple of daffodils blooming. Thanks for the smile.
Love it! Spring is in the air and on your card.
