Monochromatic! | 12x12 Scrapbook Layout | Scraptember

[@deepalakshman4144]

Wow, spectacular how a monochromatic look makes the page shine too. Fantastic.

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you very much, Deepa! Monochromatic looks can be incredibly eye-catching, but I struggle with them! I want to add all the colors!

Love watching you create Laura, you are so very good at it. I could watch you all day.❤️

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you, Terri! I love sharing with y’all!

[@cynthiatooley4577]

Seriously the sweetest look. I’ll bet you just love this pic!!

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you, Cynthia! I do! His sweet smile says it all!

[@tanyademillo8695]

Love the story, and the layout!

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you very much, Tanya! It never ceases to amaze me the types of stories that photos can just make pop back into your mind!

[@andreaguess9718]

Love this layout. I always break the tines off brads before gluing them down.

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you, Andrea! Yes! I actually really like the look of the new adhesive brads I've seen out recently.

Love the design

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you, Sandra! This sketch is one of my older ones and one of my personal favorites!

[@pineapplepapers]

Love your take on this sketch! Also thanks for making the sketch! It is beautiful!

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you very much, Crystal! I really enjoy making sketches, they just take a lot of time!

[@laurathacker1160]

I love this one. I think I must lean towards monochromatic 😂

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you! Yes! I know a lot of people who prefer monochromatic! I think it's easier for them to design by size and shape, rather than color mixing!

I’m not a coffee drinker either, but still love my Starbucks chai lattes! Mmm and lemon loaf too 😁 Cute layout

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you, Alison! I never even think to stop there, honestly. I bet they have a tea I'd like!

[@createwithalison]

@@lauraalbertscrafts definitely ☺️

[@taniab2018]

I love the title! Heck, I love the whole page. I also rarely, if ever, do monochromatic pages. I do, however, love Starbucks for coffee. I only like fancy/flavoured coffees. They've essentially become my sub for dessert, but during the day. I have two companies I am having a hard time using up... Scenic Route & Basic Grey. The Basic Grey, I just haven't finished the photos I want to use them on... I love this company for heritage type pages. Once I do finish that, I'll be more comfortable using it for 'other stuff.' My Scenic Route, I just am reluctant to use it all up too fast, because the company is gone. I think I would reach for it more if I was better able to figure out how to mix it with other companies, so I could make it go further.

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you, Tania! My teens love Starbucks! My husband and I just aren't big coffee drinkers. The older lines definitely are harder to mix with the newer ones! I never got on the Basic Grey and Scenic Route train, really missed just about everything pre-2016 honestly. Previous to the then, I just bought what I liked at Michaels and made it work!

[@margaretallison2246]

Very nice

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you, Margaret! This one was definitely a challenge!

[@juliamullie8677]

This turned out really nice! I can't imagine myself using just one color to scrap either. I want all the pretty colors 🤣 I may have to challenge myself to do a monochrome layout sometime. This turned out beautiful! Great job!

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

Thank you very much, Julia! Yes! It's tricky, but can be so satisfying at the end!

I always ask Siri to spell something for me. Phone is always close.

[@lauraalbertscrafts]

I film with my phone and I'm always afraid Siri will stop the filming to look it up. It's why 90% of the time I add the journaling off camera, lol!
