Monogram mad Notecard

Created this Monogram 'mad' Notecard
for myself to use. Yes, my initials are 
'mad.' My father did not want to give me
a middle name but in the Catholic faith
for Baptism you have to have a middle
name so he gave me the simple middle
name of 'Ann.'

Used Mini Monograms Cricut cartridge
to make this Monogram Notecard. Used
my fav pastel colors: blue & yellow.

















Closeup:


















2 blue buttons
blue & white twine 

 Cricut cartridge:
Mini Monograms 2" stitched letters mad

paper:
4 1/4" x 5 1/2" Base yellow cardstock
the Paper Company Pastel cardstock - blue & yellow

  5. Hi Sunshine Honey Bee!
    Thanks for stopping at our CropStop's blog. This is Dalis their web gal. I have found their metal tape at my local hardware store, there are some different thickness, you want the thinnest. It is also good for sharpening your punches. Do not use a thick cardstock with it, you don't want to put anything super thick in your punches. Have fun!
