Hey everyone... back with my card for this week's Less is More challenge. Chrissie and Mandi (the head LIMs) sure know how to pick some great challenges and this week's challenge is no exception! What is the challenge you might ask?? Well... the challenge is to use monograms on your card. When I saw the challenge I thought "oh no... how am I going to do this one??" Then I remembered that I had an alphabet set from JustRite Stamps that would work perfect for the challenge. The set is really neat because it contains 3 sizes of the font (Brayton). I decided to make a traditional type of monogrammed card using my initials RJD. With a traditional monogram of this type the middle initial is the one from your last name and then the other two flank that one. Usually the flanking initials are in a smaller font size, as well.
The card was made using supplies that I had out on my kitchen counter: white, black and green cardstock and green and black inks. I also used the Waltzingmouse Vintage Labels 2 set and some Spellbinders dies.
Thanks for taking a peek....
Supplies: Cardstock: PTI white, true black & true green; Ink: bamboo leaves & true black; Stamps: JustRite Brayton font, WMS Vintage Labels 2; Spellbinders Labels 2, plain & scalloped ovals
