Hello crafters. In this video, we are talking about Monochromatic Color Scheme cards. Watch my Analogous Color Scheme Cards Video HERE. Color plays an important role when creating cards and it is typically the first thing I think about when I start working on a new project.

I often struggle with finding and using new color combinations for my handmade cards and I know many of you feel the same. For this video, I challenged myself to step outside my comfort zone and use monochromatic color schemes for my projects.
PINK MONOCHROME
Cardstock colors used: Poppy Field, Wild Berry, Dahlia, Pink Sand.
Wax Beads colors used: Fuchsia
PURPLE MONOCHROME
Cardstock colors used: Plum, Royal Amethyst, Lilac Blossom, and Purple Mist
Wax Beads colors used: Red and Royal Blue mixed together
RED MONOCHROME
Cardstock colors used: Mahogany, Crimson, Phone Booth, and Poppy Field
Wax Beads colors used: Red
Cardstock colors used: Indigo, Lagoon, Teal Topaz and Glacier.

What does monochromatic mean? Plainly speaking, a card made using various shades of one color is monochromatic. When working with colored cardstock is it very easy to create monochromatic cards as colored cardstock is typically available in many beautiful shades. I used Spellbinders Color Essentials cardstock and the new Spellbinders Floral Reflection collection for the card ideas I have for you in this video.

Such beautiful cards, Yana! And such a relief to have you safe and still crafting.
These are beautiful. Hope your family is somewhat safe..
I LOVE your color combinations! I was inspired by your analogous color video, and this monochromatic version is just as impressive.
You inspire me, not just for your beautiful card creations, but for being such a courageous person living in a war zone. It puts me to shame how much you accomplish amidst such insanity.
Keep safe, keep crafting, keep inspiring our paper crafting community!
Gorgeous creations, thanks for the video!
These are just gorgeous
These are all so gorgeous! Thanks for the inspiration!!
