BBTB2 Monogram

Our hostess this week at BBTB2 is our fearless co-leader Donna.  She asked us to create a project with a Monogram.  I used Cindy Loo for my monogram.  I just love the font on that cartridge.  I rarely make a project for myself but I decided to treat myself with a pretty little altered composition book.  I carry one of these notebooks with me all the time to jot down design ideas or sketches for layouts.  I used my Basic Grey Utopia paper pad for coordinating papers and punch outs.  I started by covering the notebook with purple cardstock.  I added a punched border piece of white cardstock around the binding of the notebook.  The flowered border is a punch out from the paper pad as well as the printed oval that I placed my monogram on.  The word dream is cut from the Designer's Calendar cartridge.  I'll also be entering this project in the Fantabulous Cricut challenge this week to use the colors of the blog-blue, green and turquoise. 

I hope you can join the BBTB2 challenge this week.  You can use any cartridge you'd like for your monogram, but please make sure it's a new creation for this challenge.  Also, please remember that if you'd like the Design Team to leave a comment on your blog regarding your challenge entry we ask that you turn off word verification from your blog.
