The easiest way for me to do monochrome, other than shades of grey, is with a Recollections one color paper pack like this…
You don’t ned to use them all, I didn’t!
The base card and main piece are a lighter pink.
I used a layer of darker pink in between and darkened it a bit more with Distress ink picked raspberry.
I die cut the sentiment using a die from Sizzix Tim Holtz “Friendship Words:Script”, darker pink card stock and then inking it a bit.
The leaves, die cut with dies from Elizabeth Crafts “Florals 2” from dark pink card stock and shaded with the ink.
The flowers cut with more dies from the set and lighter pink card stock, also shaded with the ink.
To finish I inked some pink card stock and with my 1/8” circle pinch I cut enough holes to apply three per flower center.
simple and very effective use of the card Arlene and a gorgeous card as a result
