For my project .... I used the super fun, new clear stamp set called; "Silly Monsters".
I used my Spectrum Noirs to color these fun little monster in.

Purple Monster: PL1,PL2,LV2,LV3
Orange Monster: OR1,OR2,OR3,DR1,DR3,CT1,CT3,GB4

I just used basic black and white cardstock for the base of my card, card measurements are 8.25 x 3. I usually don't make long cards like this, but I love how It turned out. It was hard to choose just one monster, so I choose them all :) My sentiment is also from this set.
