Hello and Happy Saturday! Welcome to my blog and another challenge at My Sheri Crafts! For this challenge we are to make monogram cards or a special project with lots of style. For my project I chose to alter a 5x7 journal I bought in the $1 bins at Michaels.
I cut the "S" from Winter Woodland at 2 3/4" and covered the top layer with glitter. The rosette border is a Paper Studio punch.
This intricate butterfly is on the Cricut Ultimate Creative Sampler Cartrige, Bonus key 3 with the shift key, cut at 1". It's actually cut from dark purple, even though it looks blue here.
This satin ribbon was tied on a set of sheets I bought! I glued the ribboon to the back of the book and added a little piece of velcro behind the bow to hold the book shut.
On the inside, I just added some light blue paper.
Now it's your turn! Get monogramming and join us at My Sheri Crafts! You may be our next guest designer!
