Here's a card where I printed the monogram font onto a piece of white cardstock and coloured the flowers with markers and a bit of Stickles glitter glue. Quick and easy.
And here's a card where I cut out a letter using my Silhouette:
I dropped the cut out monogram onto an adhesive sheet and then applied ultra fine glitter to the adhesive background. I used short pieces of plastic drinking straws to carefully apply different colours of glitter to different areas of the monogram. It's not perfect, but the overall effect turned out pretty good. I shook off the excess glitter, burnished the adhered glitter firmly with my index finger to make sure it was good and stuck and mounted to a card base. A less messy approach would have been to back the cut out monogram with a contrasting color of cardstock. Ha! When I use glitter, glitter gets everywhere, but I do enjoy it's shimmery goodness.
Be sure to check out Suzanne Cannon's font files in the Silhouette Store. There are so many possibilities!
