Stampin Friends March 2024 Blog Hop - Monochromatic March

It’s monochromatic March and I always find monochromatic cards to be a challenge.  With a little help of Rock Star suite from Stampin’ Up! I think I nailed it. Let me know what you think in the comments below.  And while you’re there, follow along on our blog hop! The next hopper will be sure to impress!

ENJOY!

MATERIALS NEEDED

Stamp Set: Rock Star

Paper: Basic Black CS: 4 ¼” x 11”, scored at 5 ½”
Smoky Slate CS: 3” x 4 ¼”
Basic White CS: 2 ¾” x 4”
Basic Gray CS: scraps
Rock & Roll 12”x12” DSP: ¾” x 2 ¾” and ¼” x 2 ¾”
Metallic Gold CS: scraps
Silver Metallic CS: scraps

Ink: VersaMark

Tools/Accessories: Rock Star Dies, black embossing powder

I’m constantly buying masculine supplies, but never seem to use them. So when this theme came about I knew for sure I would want to use the Rock Star Bundle. I dug it out my pile of new things that have never been touched and went to work.  I cased this layout from Loven Stamps.

 

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1: Use the scoring board to score a 4 1/4” x 11” piece of cardstock along the long side at 5 1/2”. Fold in half to create the base.
Step 2: Adhere with double sided tape the two then strips to the left-hand side of the basic white card stock. Then adhere this piece to the center of the smoky slate cardstock.
Step 3: Die cut the large guitar pick out of basic gray cardstock, adhere this with dimensionals towards the right-hand side of the card base.
Step 4: Stamp the microphone image and sentiment out of VersaMark, sprinkle basic black embossing powder, then heat these both with the heat gun until the embossing powder sets. Adhere the microphone to the pic with dimensionals, along with the sentiment.

Step 5: Next die cut the lightning bolts and stars out of gold metallic cardstockUse these to embellish the card front.

 

There you have it, my monochromatic card, easy peasy!  I hope you’ll give these types of cards a shot.  Be sure to check back regularly.  I really love sharing my projects with my stampin’ friends!  Comments of any kind (well hopefully nice ones, lol) are greatly appreciated.  When you are done here, be sure to hop on over to Jo’s page!!
