Create something monogrammed!
I wasn't too psyched about this month's challege. Monograms are not my style. I think they are perfect for a set of thank you cards, but I wasn't in the mood or more importantly in the need to create something like this.
Before you know it, Easter will be here. I thought I would create something with this theme. I loved the basket die released this month, but couldn't justify the price tag, especially since I own the berry basket die which I do not use enough as it is. My project is a stretch for the topic of monograms as I only used the my granddaughters' intial for each basket.
Of course, purple was the color of choice. Olivia picked Plum Pudding with Lavender Moon accents and Lilly picked Lavender Moon with Winter Wisteria accents.
I used a lot of PTI dies with this basket: Half & Half, Easter Egg. ric rac, bunny and berry basket die. I used a scallop punch to make the handle and added ribbon with a button. the initials were made with one of my Sizziz dies. The egg is actualyy Spring Moss, but has taken on a yellowish hue in this photo.
This one is Lilly's basket.
Thanks for stopping by.
