More Monograms

These past few weeks I have been exploring Forchicsake.com & have completely fallen in love again! I tried to print off the iPhone/iPad stickers before, over the summer and I could not get the PDF file to download for the life of me. I had some time the other day so I went on and was eventually able to print off the monogram. It was then, that I realized I had no label paper for it to actually work. So I drove to Office Depot & paid $12 for 5 sheets of label paper, but it was worth it. I now have monogrammed my iPad/iPhone charges & both home buttons. I also have printed off a charger monogram for all of my friends. Needless to say, I'm obsessed! I probably would have continued to give up (because the PDF wouldn't load) if it wasn't for my friend Kelly, who sent me a picture of the add and made me get up and try again. So thanks Kelly (:


Here are the monogram covers I made personally.



 
 
Here is the link to the printable: http://forchicsake.com/dress-your-tech/
 
 
Once on the page, simply download the PDF onto scribd. A box will pop up at the bottom of your screen, click download, then click open. Once the page pops up, let it load. (The page will load with a monogram already inside the boxes) click on the box, and delete everyhting on the inside. If you are using a block monogram cntinue as follows: lowercase first initial, capital last initial, and for your middle initial you will enter the following:
 

Directions for Typing in the Block Monogram:





1. Click on and highlight the existing monogram and hit your backspace key to delete it.

2. Using NO SPACES, type in the left letter (in lowercase) the middle letter (in uppercase)

3. Type in the right letter with the character that corresponds to the letter as follows:

A … 1 H … 8 O … % V … +

B … 2 I … 9 P … ^ W … {

C … 3 J … 0 Q … & X … }

D … 4 K … ! R … * Y … \

E … 5 L … @ S … ( Z … :

F … 6 M … # T … )

G … 7 N … $ U … -

***READ THIS*** The entire block monogram will not show up in the center circle of the page until you have typed in all three letters! The first letter will appear to the right of the circle, the second letter will appear cut off and then once you type in the character that corresponds to your third letter all three letters will center in the circle.


For script monogram:



Directions for Typing in the Script Monogram:

1. Click on and highlight the existing monogram and hit your backspace key to delete it.

2. With NO SPACES, type in the first letter lowercase, the middle letter uppercase and the last letter

December 26, 2012 OOTD

Family Movie/Dinner OOTD

We had a pretty humid & stormy Christmas here in Florida, but today the temp dropped an it was quite chilly. Today me and my mom woke up and went shopping, then came home and helped Sandra the cleaning lady pick up from having Christmas dinner here the night before. Me, my dad, my mom, my sister, & my niece all went to Macaroni Grill for dinner and then to the movies. The goal for today's outfit was comfy & cute.
Jeans- The LOFT
Shirt- a dance recital shirt
Shoes- Tory Burch flats
Scarf- Burberry
Jacket- north face ( from Santa )
I opted for second day curls pulled into a pony, my new watch & pandora, & lastly, my Tory burch studs. I finished my look with my new monogrammed Longchamp Le Pliage tote. Hope everyone had a great day-after-Christmas!

Xoxo,
