Flower Garden Monogram Font - Two Card Ideas

Hello, Connie Nichol here today with a couple of cards featuring the new Quietfire Design Flower Monogram font available in the Silhouette Design Store.  It's such a beautiful font - first I simply printed short words in different colours with my inkjet printer and then I tried it as a cut file with my Silhouette Cameo.  It worked beautifully!

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!

Mom and Calligraphic Rose Card

Hello, Connie Nichol here today with a card featuring the Mom & Calligraphic Rose Ornament cut file.  It's available in the Silhouette Design Store here. You can use these files separately, or together as I did here.  This would be a great card for Mother's Day, but also for every time you want to give your mom a card!


I chose a coral colour cardstock to cut with my Silhouette Cameo, and then mounted it on black to really make it pop.  To decorate the open areas of the calligraphic rose, I carefully squeezed in some Glossy Accents and then sprinkled with microfine glitter.  Shake off the excess glitter and let dry.  This is so easy to do and would be so pretty with other colours of cardstock and glitter.  Have fun playing!  

Supplies:  Stampin up! cardstock, Elizabeth Craft Designs glitter, Ranger glossy accents, May Arts ribbon, Silhouette Cameo.
