Gift from one of my card class girls. . .

Recently one of the girls in my card class gave me a monogram stamp. 

 I was really touched by her gesture (thank you Leanne)  and wanted to come up with a not so traditional way to use the monogram "S". 

So, in this card I used it to create a background image!  How cool is that! 

Once I had my background I decided to go with the black and white theme.  

I cut out the happy greeting using the Hello You Thinlet dies and mounted it on Basic Black card stock.  Then I stamped the So Happy For You greeting from the same stamp set and cut it up and adhered to front panel.  

I felt it still needed a little something so I stamped and fussy cut the flower from the same stamp set. A candy dot for a pop of color and I was done. 

Cool eh!
