The search was performed for cataclysmic variable stars with outlying infrared magnitudes in USNO-B1.0 catalog. The selection was limited to objects in the Northern hemisphere with (B1-R1) < 1 and (R2-I) > 3.5. The search method is described, and the details on individual stars are given. In total 27 variable objects were found with 20 being the previously known ones and 7 - new discoveries. 4 of newly found variables are dwarf novae, while the remaining 3 - pulsating red variables of Mira or semi-regular types, including a heavily reddened one in Pelican nebula. The correct pulsation period is determined for two stars discovered by other researchers, and the dwarf nova nature is confirmed for another object previously suspected as such. The perspectives of the proposed search technique in the framework of Virtual Observatory are also discussed.
