Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Butter Daisy.
Butter Daisy is a duo of a chunky retro-cottage script and a tall narrow print, with a swash set: the script is a fat loaded stroke with soft curled entries, and the print is a narrow hand face with blunt ends for the supporting lines. The pairing gives a card one hand-made voice and one legible one, and the swashes widen the script word. The script needs roughly 24 mm and the print 18 mm for their detail to read.

Cottage-bakery identity, jar label and bag stamp
A fat cottage script with a narrow print reads as a hand-written label rather than a printed brand, which is what a small bakery wants on a jar. The script holds at 26 mm, and the print lists the ingredients at 8 mm in the same pass.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Jar label 70 x 45 mm, script 18 mm with 6 mm swash clearance, print 7 mm, 4 mm die margin. Bag stamp 90 x 50 mm, script 26 mm, print 10 mm, 6 mm margins. Card 85 x 55 mm, script 16 mm, print 8 pt, 5 mm margins.
Pre-production check
A 70 x 45 mm jar label at 18 mm closes the swash into a solid curl and the word reads as a blob on wet-strength paper. Raise the label to 24 mm, and check one labelled jar before the batch.
Maker identity, box print and ribbon band
A cottage script paired with a narrow print gives a maker a mark that reads as labelled by hand but stays legible. The script holds the name at 30 mm, and the print sets the address at 9 pt on the same artwork.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Box print 150 x 100 mm, script 30 mm with 8 mm swash clearance, print 10 mm, 8 mm margins. Ribbon band 200 x 40 mm, script 16 mm, 6 mm margins. Card 85 x 55 mm, script 16 mm, print 8 pt, 5 mm margins.
Pre-production check
On a 200 x 40 mm band the script crosses the fold and splits when the band is wrapped. Keep the word 8 mm clear of the crease, and wrap one band before the order.
Party invite, cake topper and cup wrap
A cottage script reads as a home-made invitation rather than a purchased card, which is what a family birthday wants. The swash holds at 40 mm on an invite, and the print sets the details at 8 pt in the same ink.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Invite A6, script 40 mm with 10 mm swash clearance, details 8/11 pt, 12 mm margins. Topper 130 x 110 mm, script 44 mm with a 6 mm stick slot and 12 mm clear. Cup wrap 200 x 90 mm, script 20 mm, 12 mm from the rim.
Pre-production check
A cup wrap printed across the taper doubles the swash at the seam and the word reads as a shadow. Keep the word inside the flat 60 mm centre band, and wrap one cup before the party.
