papertrey february blog hop

It's that time of the month again... Papertrey's blog hop.  This month's challenge is about creating anything monogrammed.  Here are some inspiration photos...


I decided to make a CAS (clean and simple) monogrammed card for the Craftmates.  Here it is...


I  used Papertrey's Wreath for all Seasons and Ambassador Monogram sets for the stamp and Smokey Shadow and Fine Linen inks. 

Since it did not take me long to finish it, I decided to make a set instead.  After all, everything looks better in multiples!


And here are the 2 other sets...






Then for myself, I made a stationery holder using Papertrey's Timeless Templates Desk Top Organizer.



I also used the Ambassador Monogram and Simply Stationery sets, Beautiful Blooms and Button dies and raspberry fizz, harvest gold and kraft cardstock.  I also used some Crate patterned papers.  

Here's another angle of the organizer...


Enjoy the blog hop and thanks for stopping by!

  1. Irma it is so nice you are able to make your own lovely stationary sets. They seem to be a thing of the past in the stores, and when found so terribly expensive to buy. People like getting nice stationary as a note in the mail at times, and I am sure they love receiving yours.

  3. What lovely gifts! I love your clean design on the cards and your use of the Timeless Template. We don't see many folks using the TT much these days. Ambassador Monogram is one of my fave alpha sets too.
