Welcome to July! Your challenge this month is to create a monochromatic project. You can use neutrals but should use only shades of one colour on your page. I've included an example I added to the gallery yesterday below. All types of projects count (paper, digi, hybrid, PL, art journaling, anything else you create) and if you share your projects online please link them here so we can admire and leave some love. You can find instructions to post in the Refupeas gallery in this thread but shout out if you need help.  |

This is beautiful LO! I love the soft colors and the way you layered the tabs and mats behind the photo. And that photo! I'm such a sucker for nature shots!  |

OMG Chinagirl828 that LO is STUNNING!!! Everything about it is beautiful from your layering behind the photo to the lush title and is that a super old Sassafrass alpha for sea? I want to scraplift this but I know I wouldn't be able to do it justice, it's so lush! |

Beautiful layout! The ocean is my happy place but I don’t think I could do a layout as beautiful as this.

Here is my monochromatic page. Mostly shades of blue with a bit of silver and a tiny bit of green. The colours are much nicer IRL. My phone camera did not want to pick up the different shades. I think the reflection off the silver kind of blinded it. I tried to sharpen and lighten the image in editing, but this was the best I could do.  movin on 2 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr |

I scraplifted Chinagirl828 's wonderful LO for the Tag game this month. I didn't do her LO justice and I didn't stick to monchrome either, I have added in black cause I just couldn't find things in the right shade or colour that fitted and ended up being like damn, just stick it down!  |

stinkerbelle don't be so disparaging on your page, I think it's lovely. I really like the sparkle on the title card and the scattering of stars and sequins, and I love the colour scheme with that deep navy.

I posted this on the sharing thread but this one is mostly yellow gold and greenish yellow. The flowers on the side are an old rub on that didn't all come off making it look kind of distressed!

Here's another wedding page from me using only black & white. The scan has unfortunately washed some of the subtlety out of this, like the soft shine on the fabric flower petals and the rhinestone flower centre.  |
