Well, I finally got around to finishing my friend’s monogrammed note cards! The set I used was Sophisticated Serifs and is (as I mentioned) a perfect set for monogramming. A simple card with one color layer and just a hint of Pink Pirouette in the flower sets off an elegant look.
Here are some tips!
 |
| TIP:I lined up the letters to make sure they were lined up right and the spacing is equal. |
 |
| TIP:I wasn’t pleased with the inked image so I very LIGHTLY sanded the stamps! Remember you aren’t sanding the floor! This helps the ik smoothe out on the stamp. |
 |
| TIP: I cut out a piece of a grid sheet the same size as my piercing mat. Then I marked the center so I would know where to place my card to stamp it. And I did use my piercing mat to give my stamp a good cushion. |
 |
| TIP: Next, I marked my block so I would know where the center was. The line can be removed with rubbing alcohol. |
 |
| The finished product! I inked the edges with Pink Pirouette or Wild Wasabi. Isn’t the little flower cute? It comes in the set too! |
Happy stampin’,
