As well as participating in the challenges for Unconvention, I had the pleasure of creating a challenge for the group also. I decided on a monochrome theme where the card was all basically one tone. Unconvention-ers could choose between Blissful Blues (Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Island Indigo), Creative Corals (Crisp Cantaloupe, Calypso Coral, Tangerine Tango), Great Greens (Pear Pizzazz, Old Olive, Always Artichoke) or Yay Yellow (Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, Summer Starfruit). I think the lack of colour variety challenged a few of the participants, but there were some fantastic entries from the people that were willing to give it a go! I did one design in each of the colour combinations. This is a great way to make 4 ‘different’ cards in a short space of time – remember design is the most time consuming part of card making. I’d love to see your Monochromatic Madness!!! Kelly x
