Week 20 over at the Less is More Challenge and this week the theme is "Monogram" ...
monogram ( ) n. A design composed of one or more letters, typically the initials of a name, used as an identifying mark.
Well I have to say I wasn't overly enthused about this initially but of course once I'd had time to think about it, it turned out to be quite fun.
I've made a card for my sister-in-law who has a birthday later in the year - my brother calls her "The Queen" .....
I've used a Cuttlebug die which I bought after seeing Mandi use a while back (thanks Mandi!), a little bit of bling and the Monograms (font Castellar, size 72) have been printed directly onto the card.
Thanks for another great challenge C & M (hey, that's a bit of a coincidence!) and thanks everyone for stopping by and good luck with the challenge!

I was tickled by your use of the phrase saying you weren't enthused by this challenge 'INITIALLY' was the pun intended? It made me smile anyway... but what a fabulous creation you came up with in the end... I must admit we seemed to have stimulated a lot of latent creativity this week!
This is great!
Thanks so much
