Use Your Initials

15 Comments

Hello, Over at Seize the Birthday we have a brand new Topping starting today. Glenda is our wonderful hostess and she has a fun one for us. What she wants us to do is use one of our initials to inspire us. I was a bit overzealous or didn’t read the fine print very well and I used all three of my initials on my card. LOL Some of my fellow DT members used one initial, or two initials and a few of us used all three.

My initials are; NEL. So I used Neon, Embossing, and Love on my card. I thought it was so much fun and hope you will too. Thanks, Glenda, for thinking outside the box on this one. I certainly enjoyed it.

Card Details: The heart and scalloped rectangles are from MFT, and the sentiment is from Papertrey Ink. The Tiny envelopes and flowers are from Spellbinders and in the Parcel and Post Mailbox Dies linked below. The EF is from Cuttlebug. I used some black Nuvo drops as well.

Happy Creating, Nanc’

  3. Fab card! It’s such a fun challenge idea

  4. What a fun, creative idea to use your initials! Very sweet BD card & fun color combo!

  5. This was such a fun challenge, Nancy, despite my air-headed first take. And I was thrilled that I finally figured out what my idea was way back in November. I love your take and you did a great job with all 3 of your initials. I especially love the neon and those tiny flower-filled envelopes.

  6. Nancy, this is so pretty. That black background really makes everything pop. Love your use of all 3 of your initials.

  7. Awesome card, you found a great combination of things to go with all 3 of your initials! Thanks for having me as your party guest for this fun challenge.

  9. Cute use of these tiny die cuts! Love that color combo too

  10. I think you are an over achiever, which is a very good thing! I love that you used all your initials and in such a great way, the card is stunning and an eye catcher. Who ever gets it will be over joyed!

  11. You always use such striking color combos!!! This is stunning. I thought about using my initials but I don’t like them….middle name is Ann. Figure it out. NOT GOOD.

  12. Clever combo using all of your initials Nancy! Love the neon with the black, Cathy x

  13. Such a sweet card! I appreciate your patience in cutting out those dies from different colored cardstocks! But they really make for a great finish. The heart in between to both anchor the flowers and stamp the sentiment is a great idea as well. Love this one too, as always!

  14. Love this vibrant card, Nancy, and well done for using all three initials! That black background just makes everything pop.

  15. This is an absolutely fabulous card. I love your very thoughtful and clever implementation for your initials. Thanks for going ‘all-in’ and using all of your initials.
