I'm definitely a 'colour' fan, and even on a "grey day" I love to add some colour!  So my rainy day image features two of my favourite colours, aqua-blue and purple.


Oh for me it's definitely all about the colours
Why? well I think life would not be the same in one colour
Simple as that!



Brenda

I like monochrome, but I LOVE color!  Bright colors make me smile.




Carol

I love the challenge of monochrome especially when using colours, it's the balance of getting the shades of one colour to look just right. This is my favourite monochrome colour, just like my craft room, makes me feel right at home! 





Elaine

Monochrome can have a very striking effect, but I do prefer colour. I love the vibrancy that colour can bring to a card. 



Kat

Almost all my cards are in colour; there are so many beautiful colours and it's nice to choose colours to suit the mood and style of the image.




Lori

As you can probably guess, my favorite is COLOR...in fact, I believe I am addicted to color! :P I am an avid crocheter as well as a card maker and when I start an afghan, I am so excited to see it once ALL the colors are incorporated! SO FUN!




Lorraine

Colour is definitely my choice every time. I love bright and vibrant colours they make me happy.





Mojca
Definitely colour for me. Otherwise I wear only black and sometimes read coloured clothes, so I have to confess that crafts is my colour escape :P




Suzette
My Favourite colour is rose pink 


Mojca


**coming soon**


Sarah

Colour for me!! After all the world would be a miserable place without it and from a crafty perspective there are so many gorgeous papers that need images coloured to match!!






Wilma
No question about it: Colour.  
Colours make me happy.



So now it's over to you.
We hope you will join in our challenge, show us your style and 
showcase your Favourite Monochrome or Colour (& why).
You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Good luck, and happy crafting.
Hugs from the AYLI girls.
