Monograms are a great way to personalize your scrapbook pages or cards. Those oversized letters and numbers are fun and trendy! I love using Monograms!

You can used a big Letter or use it to create a title.

You can create your own Monograms, by cutting out card stock or used chipboard. I love to used cereal boxes for my Monograms.

Angie DT 

Here is my monogram project. I decorated a gift bag with card stock, pattern paper by Kiwi Embroidery Paper Co., sequins, washi tape, & cut out the "L" with my Cameo. I also removed the tough cord handles and replaced them with ribbon.

Sarah  DT

Here is my L/O. This is my nephew….

I used Authentique papers and random epherema. 

The letters that spell "Aidan" were originally pink

so I used gesso, then teal paint, then heat embossed some

white/gold to change them.

Issys DT

This is an 8x8 canvas that I recycled from an old picture.

I used a robot theme, with the monogram cut out from a cookie carton and painted with red apple acrylic paint. To make it shiny, I covered the whole letter with Glossy Accents.

The robot is a printable I downloaded of the internet, and I added googly eyes and some nuts brads to it. On the top left corner, I added a few flat head nuts brads as well. Hope you like it!

Rachelle DT

My double layout, 

I downloaded the letters from the internet, I cut it out on a cereal box. I used Distress paint for the color and Distress Crackle paint. The rest of my letters are Thickers - Fuchsia Chipboards.

I used Pion Designs paper and for the brown branches, I used brown puff paint.

Kimberly Clark

This is Kimberly's lovely Layout - (Thank you Kimberly)

So…. a bit about my self - well my name is Kimberly Clark - yes just like the toilet paper company!!! When I was born my mom actually wrote the company to see if we could ge a discount. I guess it was the beginning of my sale and freebie obsession! I am a mother of a 21yo old daughter, whom I have completely raised on my won, and I must say didn't do to bad :-) lol.

Sh is great only a little bit of attitude and saucyness…but I think that all children have that in them. I love to scrapbook, read and according to my daughter I am a work-a-holic. I love my job…Not everyone can say that.

I consider myself still new to the scrapping world and learning daily. I haven't completely found my style but I tend to lean towards the cutesy and a clean and simple style. The other thing you will find out about me when scrapbooking I don't go in order… so you will watch my daughter grow up over and over again….lol.

What inspires me…a picture, a paper, a sketch…just about everything. I even grab ads in the paper that catch my eye and post them all over my scrap-room.

Thank you Rachelle, for the opportunity to design for Scrapping4funChallenges.

I only started paper crafting a few months ago and this is my first guest design opportunity, so I'm quite thrilled.

Currently on maternity leave; mom to a 4 month baby boy and a very active toddler who is soon going to be 3, most of my crafting happens after midnight when both kids are asleep. My roots are Indian (from Namma Bengaluru) but I now live in Sydney with my family.

I've always loved all things handmade and have tried my hand at quilling, glass painting, pottery and much more. My first tete-a-tete with paper crafting was in 2011 but it was only in mid 2013 that I seriously started scrapbooking - to preserve memories of the sweet little moments with my son who is growing up so fast! I scrap mainly 12x12 layouts but also make mini albums and cards. I love using paints, inks and combining different media in most of my projects.

It would make me very happy if you visit my blog and leave me some love.
