Modern Monochromatic cards | Catherine Pooler Natural Flourishes

I was really drawn to the simplicity of the Natural Flourishes and Bold Bits & Patterns stamp set from the At Home release and thought they would be great for modern monochromatic cards. They are very simple and easy cards to create and who can resist a CAS card. So let’s get started!

Modern Monochromatic Cards

Modern Monochromatic Cards: blue greens

This first card uses the small leave branch flourish from the Natural Flourishes stamp set.  Stamp the leaf branch in Black Jack ink. In addition, use some of the oval splodges from the Bold Bits & Patterns stamp set to add colour to the branch. 

Abstract leaf colouring was stamped in In The Park ink and Minted Ink. Switch up the colours and sizes for variation. This panel was trimmed down and added to a white cardbase. 

A sentiment was heat embossed in white onto black card. This sentiment comes from the Natural Flourishes stamp set. I finished the card off with Ebony Black Nuvo drops

Modern Monochromatic Card:classic softness

This card uses my favourite flourish from the Natural Flourishes stamp set and again stamped in Black Jack ink

A large abstract round stamp from the Bold Bits & Patterns stamp set was stamped in Minted ink to colour the leaf. 

Another sentiment from the Natural Flourishes stamp set was heat embossed and foam mounted onto the card. The card was finished with Ebony Black Nuvo drops

Modern Monochromatic Card: yellow green

I used my favourite leaf design again from the Natural Flourishes stamp set and I rotated it before stamping it Black Jack ink

Modern Monochromatic Cards

To colour the leaf, I used the repeating cobble pattern from Bold Bits & Patterns stamp set and stamped it twice in Melon Ice ink

The card was finished off in the same way with a heat embossed sentiment from  Natural Flourishes stamp set and  Ebony Black Nuvo drops

Modern Monochromatic Card: bright green

This last card for me is the most striking as it has such a bright colour which contrasts with the white and black so well. The traditional leaf pattern stamp from the Natural Flourishes stamp set was stamped upside down in Black Jack ink

The largest full pattern stamp from the Bold Bits & Patterns stamp set was stamped in Garden Party ink – a great solid stamp!

The card was finished off in the same way with a heat embossed sentiment from  Natural Flourishes stamp set and  Ebony Black Nuvo drops.
