Stamping with the STARS #377: Monochromatic Color Inspiration

The DOstamperSTARS are excited to bring you another Stamping with the STARS Inspiration Hop #DOswts377.  This week we’re sharing Monochromatic Color Inspiration with you.

What does Monochromatic mean?
  • Monochromatic color refers to a color scheme that is comprised of variations of one color.
  • You can use any color to create a monochromatic color scheme.

I still needed a few more Christmas cards, so I decided to use Monochromatic colors for them.  And boy oh boy (does anyone say that anymore?), I’m delighted with the outcome.  Take a look…

 

How’d She DO That? Peace on Earth card

  • Stamps:  Thinking Thanks & Peace
  • Paper:
    • Blackberry Bliss (4-1/4″ x 11″ card base, 3-1/8″ x 4-1/8″)
    • Basic White (2-7/8″ x 3-7/8″)
    • Blackberry Beauty Designer Series Paper (DSP) (4″ x 5-1/4″, 7/8″ x 2-7/8″)
  • Ink:  Rich Razzleberry, Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush
  • Other:  Simply Elegant Trim, Mini Glue Dots, Stampin’ Seal & Stampin’ Dimensionals

 

DOstamping Tips:

  • The stamped image is all on one block.   Use the Wink of Stella Glitter Brush to move color around on the dove.
  • You might think the Blackberry Beauty DSP might be an unusual choice.  But if you look closely, there are some lovely patterns that could be used for Christmas cards.
  • For the small piece of Blackberry Beauty DSP I did some creative editing of the “owl” pattern sheet, so only see the wings were visible.  Clever, right?
  • See below for additional variations using different Designer Series Paper and monochromatic colors.  (NOTE the DSP on these cards are sold out, but I thought I’d still share the inspiration in case you already have the paper)
  • I used a very easy layout, which can be easily copied.  Great for mass-producing!

 

  • Whimsey & Wonder Designer Series Paper, Night of Navy cardstock, Misty Moonlight ink, Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack, Basic Rhinestone Jewels

 

  • Peaceful Place and Whimsey & Wonder Designer Series Paper, Basic Gray and Smoky Slate cardstock, Basic Gray ink, Simply Elegant Trim

If you have any last minute holiday cards to make, I definitely recommend this layout and the Thinking Thanks & Peace stamp set.  You’ll be done in no time at all.
