Little Moments With You Matter

Hello!

My mojo has been zip, nada, just not around .... anywhere!!! Unfortunately stress from my class has just really affected my creativity, but this weekend i tried to just set it aside and do some crafting and i was able to do a few cards, some for fun and a few challenges and some others for my design teams. Today's card i made for Unity Stamp Co's Show & Tell Facebook group, the challenge this week is anything goes with any Unity girl.

I've been seeing a lot of monochromatic coloring and finally got around to giving it a try! I started with some Kraft card stock and i stamped the girl from Unity's Only Imagine stamp set with some brown ink. Then i used my Spectrum Noir markers BG1, BG4, BG7 to color her up. I did leave her eyes uncolored.

Next i stamped the sentiment below her in brown ink and then cut  her how with a fancy rectangle die. Then i found some pretty text pattern paper and i added it to a white card base. Then i added the stamped rectangle with foam tape and last i added a few matching enamel dots.

Now this was my second attempt at monochromatic coloring, i first stamped and colored with EB1, EB2, EB7 (on the left) but i wasn't sure i liked it, so i did it again with the BG colors. I decided i like the BG colors the best (on the right), but then figured i already had the other one colored i might as well make a card out of it too.

After editing the photo's, i'm not sure which one i like the best, on one hand i like them, but on another i think the colors are just a little too different! It's probably because i've never colored anything monochromatic before! Which one do you prefer?

Thanks so much for stopping by!!
