Monograms for Aquila...

I made a set of a dozen of these Monogram Cards for my neighbor and friend Aquila.  Her birthday was a couple days ago but we're meeting up for lunch today so I wanted to give them to her then. 
This is my favorite go to sketch for making Monogram Cards, it's very quick and simple.  I used some older SU DSP, Pretty in Pink, Barely Banana, Chocolate Satin Ribbon, SU Punches, Chocolate Chip Ink and Justrite Stampers.
Is anyone going to see Breaking Dawn?  I'm going with my daughter and a couple of my friends.  I watched all the movies a couple weeks ago so I'd be caught up and clued in=)
Thank-you for stopping by, have a great week!



Monogram Thank-you's

Some quick and simple Monogram Cards I made to thank my customers for their orders earlier this month.  I had a lot of fun making their cards=)

On a side note...Monday the 28th is World Rare Disease Day.  The theme for this year is, "Rare but Equal".  As some of you know, I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, a rare genetic connective tissue disorder.  In support of EDS and to raise awareness, please wear "Zebra Stripes" (ribbon, bracelet, shirt, anything!) on Monday.  I'd appreciate your support=)  Have a fabulous day!        

Mr. & Mrs. McCallum...

This has to be my favorite sketch for Monogram Cards.  I use it over and over for gifts for family and friends.  This set is for my daughter's BFF Jessi, who got married yesterday.  Jessi was such a beautiful bride.  My daughter and I did her make-up=)  Though she didn't wear the traditional white dress (her dress was burgundy and black)... it was so pretty and she looked stunning in it!  We decorated the hall with a fall theme, everything just looked so beautiful.  Jessi's mom and dad (Tammy and Chad) are the sweetest most wonderful people.  I am so glad to have gotten to know them.     

So onto my card=)  I love this Monogram Stamp Set from  JustRite.  I love it's simple and classic style.  I also love that they fit perfectly in the SU 1 1/4 inch punch, makes assembling so fast and simple, which I love!  I made 35 cards, for them.  23 with the rose pattern and 12 with the second pattern.  I made an extra card front to decorate a black gift bag to put all the cards in, which I of course forgot to take a picture of=(  Ah well...     

I hope everyone has a Happy Halloween. I'm looking forward to taking my oldest grandson Wylie Trick or Treating, he's going to be a Cowboy.  Connor is going to be a Lion.  What are your children (or grandchildren) going to be for Halloween?  We're leaving in the morning for Arizona.  I'm so excited and happy to be heading home.  I've missed my hubs and chihuahua's dearly.  I'm looking forward to getting my daughter and grandboys there and settled into their new home with us. 

Have a great week everyone!
