Since I don't own any of the monogram stamps (yet), I used the idea to print the letter on the computer posted here on SCS. Sorry I don't know who it was to give credit to her. I tweaked the directions a little, and this is what I did. Print out an S in Times New Roman (500 font) on regular copy paper in the outline setting. Cut out the letter just outside the the line to make a template. Tape the template over So Saffron cs and use the sponge brayer with So saffron ink to make the letter. I then stamped the letter with Paisley Print to give it a little texture. With the template still in place, pierce the paper right at the template edge. Remove template and cut out letter. Finish by faux stitching around edge.
After stamping on designer paper, I pierced the flowers to make them look stitched, too.
