Monochromatic Theme

Yippee, Peachy Keen Stamps - DT Tuesday challenge for this week is a sketch with a twist. And guess what's the twist? It's monochromatic theme!  Love it...

 It's time to start playing with Copics again.  Boy, it's been more then 2 months now since I last colored an image for a card.  Well, blame it on my bug machine LOL.

I am using a Sweet Pea Stamp image for this challenge.

 Sketch provided

 I decided to make one Sepia and one Black and White cards then decide afterwards which one to use as my entry.

This is the Sepia version.

 And this is the black and white version

I opted to use this (black and white) as my entry for the challenge.  My DH and kids voted for this one so I have to go with this.

Hope you like it!  Too many tools, too many project ideas yet very little time...

Another Monochromatic - Black & White

Another monochromatic handmade card, which I got inspired to do.  Like my earlier post, I do love Vintage.  And what is vintage without black & white theme, right?   Try it and you will be amazed of the outcome.  I used to ignore the gray tones in my copic markers unless of course I need them for shadows, which I seldom do.  It's fun to find new ways to use my copic markers...  The possibilities are just endless....

RECIPE:
Paper: Basic Grey, Scenic Route, GP, Embassy and Recollection
Stamps: TGF and Hero Arts (sentiments)
Inkpads: Memento, TH Distressed Inkpads
Coloring: Copic markers

Embellishments: Satin ribbons, doilies, vintage buttons, pins, bling, tiles,

Until next card!

Monochromatic - Sepia

Love Sepia as much as I love Black and White.  I guess it all boils down to having a great admiration in everything that is Vintage.  Here is a card I made for my DFIL and hoping he likes it.

You can use all E50 and all E30 for your Sepia coloring.  The above card was colored using all E30's. I actually made two sets and with all honesty, I love the E30's better than the E50's.

RECIPE:

         Stamps: Craft Lounge
         Paper: DCWV (The Naturals) and PTI cardstock
         Inkpad: Memento Black Tuxedo
         Coloring: Copic Markers - all E30's
         Embellishment: Prima flowers from recent project, grossgrain ribbon, button, twine
