If you ever have a hard time matching colors, struggle no more! I have a super easy card idea to share with you all that only uses one color. Check out my monochromatic card inspiration where I make the same exact card, but use a different color, and only one color, each time. This card layout is very simple to make, and you can create it using any stamps and any color that you have.
The monochromatic card inspiration I’m sharing with you today was designed using the stamp set Inked & Tiled. My heart is SO sad because this stamp set is retiring from the 2023 – 2024 Annual Catalog (insert crying face). This has been my absolute favorite stamp set!! I’ve featured this stamp set many times, and if you keep scrolling you’ll find all my different card inspirations for creating with this stamp set.
![Handmade monochromatic card inspiration. There are five cards all designed the same, but each card is a different color. The colors are: brown, lime green, blue, dark green, and pink.](https://i0.wp.com/klompenstampers.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Monochromatic-Ink-and-Tiled.jpg?resize=640%2C640&ssl=1)
If Inked & Tiled has already retired by the time you’re seeing this project – don’t worry! This card idea does not go out of style and you can recreate it using any stamp set. Just watch my video below for quick tips on how to make a monochromatic card and get inspired to create!
