Like most of you, I'm busy working on my holiday gifts. This year has flown by and I know Christmas will be here before I know it. One of the gifts I've made are these monogrammed stationery sets.
I know how you love to have patterns and directions for projects, so you can learn how to make this by watching my video tutorial on this post. If you can't watch videos (sorry dial-up users), I also have all the dimensions, score lines, etc. typed out in that same post.
Here's the stationery holder open. On the left are the envelopes for the notecards. The notecards are like a postcard in that they don't open. You write your message right on the card front.
I took the four colors from the Frosty Day designer series paper--Bashful Blue, Close to Cocoa, Kiwi Kiss and Tangerine Tango.
I made four sets of these and was able to finish all of it in one afternoon.
It got a little crazy trying to make sure I had all the colors and layers right--the Tangerine Tango letters go on the Close to Cocoa circle which goes on the Kiwi Kiss scalloped circle which goes on the Bashful Blue notecard. You get the idea. I think they turned out really cute and the recipients seemed to really like them.
As always, thanks for stopping by! ~Dannie
