the Name Game Challenge

Over at the Flourishes blog, Suzanne Czosek has come up with a really fun idea for a challenge, to use your monogram, find something that represents each letter of it, and then use all of them on a card you create.  Fun idea!  I knew just what I wanted to do, using a new floral paper, and my latest Flourishes stamps from the set called Sweet Days of Summer.  My letters are LIB, and I used lace, ink, and blossoms!



supplies: white and orchid card stock, design papers from Echo Park Country Drive, Jillibean Soup Blossom Soup mini pad, BoBunny Sweet Pear Dot, Flourishes "Sweet Days of Summer", versamark ink and white embossing powder, Hero Arts Little Inker in pink, Martha Stewart butterfly punch, lace from Carole
