\n<\/a>For my Monogram card, rather than just have the Monogram by itself, I used the Monogram snipped from the Thanks<\/a><\/span> die (I also snipped off a bit of the flourish) as the first letter in my greeting. I used a stamp positioner to move the lines of the greeting to better fit the Monogram. I love this Giraffe set<\/a><\/span> and rather than color it, I used a piece of drywall mesh (it’s sticky on the backside) as a stencil, masked the sides, sponged some ink through it and added a little more color in a few of the squares w\/ Copics. The image was stamped on top & die cut. I added a black mat then put it back on the larger piece it was cut from so it looks like the grid continues. A few of the sequins from the Wood Sequin combo<\/a><\/span> were sprinkled here & there.

The inside was also kept simple:<\/em>
