This is my second card for this weeks LIM Monogram challenge - I know the ladies thought this one would be more difficult, but I LOVE monograms - did them for my GCSE in art and have loved them ever since. I am drawn to deco and nouveau designs and that is why I snapped up this monogram style alphabet from the stamp man's aspects of design range a while back (it was on sale so I think it is now discontinued). This is a tiny 3x3 inch card and I've kept it really simple to allow the monogram to sing. I've simply coloured the flowers and leaves with pencils and added some tiny gems to the centers for added interest. The rest of the letters to make up the word 'love' are from another of my Anna Griffin alphabets but the outline style matches the outline of the monogram. I needed an anniversary card so chose the love theme.
Hope you like it.
Off to see if any more entries have appeared.

That's a wonderful L Tara
ReplyDeleteStrictly speaking the L is to replace the love, for instance you could have L....for love
Fabulous card though, lovely colouring
Thanks as always
