Color Dare #147 - Monochromatic

This week we have a different kind of challenge for you. You get to choose your own colors! The catch is, your project has to be monochromatic.


If you don't know what monochromatic means, just use one color. You can use just one shade, or multiple shades of the same color. You can use white or black on your card, but other than that, don't use any other colors than the color you chose. Have fun!

Here are some extra fantastic projects from our design team:

Donna Digby - Blue

Cat Nowak - Aqua

Peachy Lamb - Pink

Sarah Stone - Purple

Now it's your turn! Create a project using the suggested colors. Take a photo of your project and upload it to your blog. Copy your blog post address and link it up with our inlinkz tool. Please link your post, not your blog in general. You must link back to us and try to include our challenge photo in your post. You can read our sidebar for complete rules. Most importantly, have fun!!!
