Unfortunately, I didn't have any black alphabet letters, and the only font that seemed to work proportionally were some white foam thickers. I created quite a mess trying to dye them with India Ink and then a permanent Sharpie Marker. The ink just wouldn't dry so I ended up dipping the letters in clear embossing powder, but the heat from the embossing gun started to mess the foam ... what a crazy mess. I finally got it to all come together :^)

Love your card, Stef. My DH's MG Club calls some of their activities "British Invasion" when they go en masse with their sports cars to a destination. I had to show him your card. He suggested I make some with "MG" replacing the "GB". He was impressed with your card...and so am I! : ) Into my favs for future CASEing.
