I’m totally loving the new In Colors and
I’ve been making a card and then making it again
in the remaining four colors!
My cards are primarily monotone.
Starting from the top, I’ve used:
Powder Pink, Tranquil Tide, Lemon Lime Twist, Berry Burst and Fresh Fig.
I used a wet Aqua Painter and ink refill in the appropriate color
and just made a kind of scribble from top to bottom on the Thick Whisper White layer.
The sentiment was stamped with an image from Lovely Friends.
You can do as I did and cut the “and” from the stamp or mask it off.
Tip: If you cut off the “and” be careful as it is very close to the “you”. Be sure to save it for future use!

Then, I used the flower die from Support Ribbon Framelits and cut Fresh Florals Designer Paper.
The center of each flower is a result of the die cutting.
I used the circles from a contrasting color and then topped it with a dome
created with the Fine Tip Glue Pen.
Next, I added an overlapped strip of 1/2″ Finely Woven Ribbon in the matching color.
Then, I topped off the ribbon with a Clear Faceted Gem.
Thanks for stopping by today and checking out my In Color Lovely Friends cards!

The Aqua Painter is the perfect tool for watercoloring.
Welcome to the ICS group! So happy to have you on the team. I love the simple, monotone, beautiful cards you have created!
Thank you Nichole. It’s lovely that there are enough coordinating products to create interesting monotone cards.
Very nice. I like the use of the DSP for the die cutting.
Thanks Audra. It’s kind of fun to see just how different the designer paper looks when it’s cut like this.
