Monochromatic With La-La Land Crafts

 Hello! Happy Friday! I'm not sure about you, but once the kids go back to school, after summer vacation, the weeks seem to go by super fast. Maybe it's the change of the seasons. Here in Alaska, Fall comes shortly after they return to school and winter is only 6-8 weeks after that. 

Anywho, let's get on with today's crafting post! This week our theme was monochromatic. I had never colored an image like this before. The first thing I did was go to the dictionary and look monochromatic up...

1) having one color.
2) having tones of one color in addition to the ground hue
Then I headed to Pinterest. This is where I discovered that you could choose any color you wanted for monochrome. I had only seen it done with brown tones before. As excited as I was to see that, I decided to go with brown tones because that is what I like best. 


I used Copic marker combination E49, E29, E25, E31, E21, E00 to color Autumn Marci. I love how you can make different colors using just a few markers. I think I will try this technique again using different combinations. For now, if you would like to see the same technique done in different colors, head on over to the La-La Land Crafts Blog. The DT did an awesome job of using different colors. You'd think we talked about it, but we didn't. 

Here's a list of the La-La Land Crafts items that I used...


Thank you so much for stopping by to see me! Hope you have a craftastic weekend! 

Hugs,
