Group of Seven - Monochromatic

Hi everyone, it's time for the Group of Seven's Monthly technique, this month we have a design element for you with our Monochromatic cards.
Monochromatic is one colour in different shades, and we could use white, black and metallic for small accents.

Card 1 - I used my new BetterPress plate with different shades of Archival inks and BetterPress sentiment. This was such a quick card I will probably make a few more.

Card 2 - Penny Black poinsettia, unknown background stamp, Sentiment Mama Elephant Easy Christmas Sentiments. The Poinsettia was stamped in Versamark and heat set white embossing powder then coloured with Zig pens.


Card 3 - Stampanory sentiment and image, Coffee stained stenciled background using Paper Artsy Christmas Stencil. the image was coloured with Tombo markers and a glitter pen over the wings and the stars.

I'm entering some of these cards into the following Challenges
NBUS  Challenge #63 with my New BetterPress Plate Card 1
Peace on Earth Challenge #66 with my Green Poinsettia Card 2
Christmas Card Throw down - June Challenge Colour an image  with my Angels Card 3

Treats on Tuesday at Magenta - Bokeh


Hi everyone, I'm over at Magenta with two bokeh cards for you. When I did this with the Group of Seven Cardmakers I mentioned stamping your image before adding the bokeh dots or stamping your image after adding the bokeh dots. This is how different they look.
