From Guylou: What does the word "Monochromic" means, you ask? Well, Monochromic's definition is "having or appearing to have only one color". Here is the card I created:
I used a digi called 'Louise Moving In' that I won in the Khaki challenge. With my twins graduating college, plenty of their friends are beginning their new lives all over the USA- so a perfect image to make cards for their friends. I printed the image on Neenah cardstock and used lots of "E" Copics to color in the image. I 'Double bugged' the background cardstock and used Copic texturizing on the bear, Louise's pants and the shirt on the Left-both techniques from the Technique Junkies. All cardstock and DSP is SU. The sentiment is Create with TLC.
Guylou is the host of this challenge, and feels that while Monochromatic cards are not the easiest to do, the results are stunning. Click HERE to see the DT samples- Guylou is right- the DT work is stunning!

Great card! Congrats on the win... how fun is that!
Fabulous card!!!! You are using this image exactly for what I designed it for. My daughter's friends are starting to move out of the family nest and moving on their own and I have made a few cards to congratulate them... Uhhmmm! Maybe I should make a guy version of this image! :D
Thanks for being our Guest Designer! It is always a pleasure having you!
