"I made you some flowers
with my fingers & my thumb
so you will have these memories
for all the years to come"
===================
===================
To size this, I measured his hand at the base of his palm, and added 3/4 of an inch. That will allow the pot to cover the base of the painted hand which forms the flower stems.
For the name, on the top piece, you will want to use a stencil font. Any stencil font will work - but I used Brolike Regular. It's free on Dafont.
Find a list of free stencil fonts here:
One you type the name in a stencil font, attach it to the top piece. Or, you can slice it - but attach will do the same thing here.
I included the text as an svg - it is in a font that will work well with the pens. To use the pens, attach the text to the bottom piece. If you prefer to use another font, here's a list of many free ones that work well with the pens in cricut:
If you prefer to print then cut, select the text and the bottom piece and flatten.
Then we painted his hand for the stems, and added painted finger prints for the flowers. I used scrap paper for that, and then cut roughly around the piece once the paint had dried.
We finished with a magnet on the back, under the age of 2 or 3, these are often a good size for a fridge magnet. Larger sizes could be made into a card, or maybe add an easel for it to stand..
After 2024, you can use contour to remove the date, if you'd like.
