Created ByHand - Letter of the Alphabet

Oooh, I had a happy mail day today! I got my new Marie Antoinette rubber stamps from Oxford Impressions! I put off making my Created Byhand challenge until I got them - I knew exactly what I wanted to do. For my background, I did the Faux Designer Paper technique from Technique Junkies. I used another Junkies tech - Faux Chipboard - for the initial. I embellished my queenly 4x4 with trim and a crown from RockCandy studios.

You NEED to get these stamps! I can't wait to play with them this week!

    Fabulous! I am having my stamp set hand delivered to me on Saturday--can't wait!

    I'm going to have to look up the faux chipboard. Your monogram is amazing.
