I made sets of 5 monogrammed cards for some gifts. I kept them simple since I was doing a lot of them.
I used various black/white/grey patterned papers for the strip in the middle, varying them so that each set had 5 different patterns. Then I used my scallop punch for the black cardstock. I stamped the design and letter in the middle of the white cardstock and assembled. The stamps are from Oriental Trading.
I made 36 set of these. Yep - 180 cards. I did them in an assembly line fashion, so it wasn't that difficult. Here's one big batch - I still had more after these.
Coming up next - the gift I had the most fun making!

These look great! And really simple too...I may have to make some monogrammed notecards for myself!
Oh what an awesome idea! Those would make great bday and teacher gifts too!!! Where did you get the cards? Do you have a Michaels out there?
Hurry and post your favorite gift that you made. I am dying to know. I won't leave my computer til I see it! It is a good thing I don't have your phone number, or I would be calling you, bugging you!!! POST IT, GIRL!
Okay, just ordered those darn stamps. You are a horrible influence. You have ruined this months craft budget with all your neat-o ideas. Drats! :)
I had to come back to this and let you know that I made some cards kind of like this for myself last night!
I had a pack of black and white papers (some are just like the ones you used) and a scallop punch. The only thing I didn't have was the round stamp that the letters are inside. So, I just did the letter without the extra stamp.
They are not quite as cute as these, but they were quick and easy and I really like them! I have a crafty friend who has a birthday soon and I think I'll make some for her.
Thanks for the awesome idea!
