A monochromatic color scheme uses a single color. In this type of scheme, various darker shades, grayer tones, and paler tints of the main color may be included in the palette. In addition, the one color is often paired with white,
black, or another neutral.
That is the
definition and it sounds simple enough,
doesn't it? And for some scrappers, it
is. I must confess that I found it to
be incredibly difficult. There are
just so many pretty scrapbooking goodies to
choose from!

The teal color of the Disneyland castle roof totally caught my eyes and inspired me to create this non-traditional Disney layout.

I pierced my wholes with a paper piercer before I started sewing on

Okay, I admit it! Having 3 men in the house has made me completely
obsessed with the color pink! And let me tell you...your wardrobe is full of it!
You are one spoiled little girl...but I can't help it! Who else can I dress in
pink?

notes:
I love lots of layers and mixing papers, so I totally stepped outside
of my box when making a monochromatic layout. To keep the one-color-scheme
interesting, I used papers with lots of texture. I cut a chipboard frame to make a
large photo corner.
