Deck of Art- two of Diamonds-Monochromatic color- due 6/10

Post by jdrhope »

My theme for this week is Monochromatic = (tints, tones and shades) of a single color.

Use any color and any topic; just be sure to use shades of a single color.
I have attached a sample using torn paper, that I made for the favorite color ATC swap a couple months ago.

To continue on with the deck of me-here is my entry. Many memories here, good and bad. This was my first husband. Journaling reads,
Layers of blue-Not my favorite color-or sometimes memory. Jeff certainly touched everyone's life, except his own. (long story :angel:

Paula - great job made with a difficult theme. I like the torn around photo, kind of suggestive. I might borrow that idea, if you don't mind, because I found the only way for me to make a monochroome LO is to make it grey with a black+white photo, and that suggests to me choosing a sad theme, too...

Thanks, Petra, by all means use any idea! Did you notice the label on the beer can? It was a difficult topic, but I am glad I chose it, and it does bring back some very good memories :angel: But what a sad ending........
