Heyyy lookit that, I made a card! Actually I made two, I have another one to share tomorrow or Saturday. Anyway, I got my new catalog preorder with the new In Colors and I just had to bust 'em out!
Oooooooohhhh I love new colors. That, my dears, is a card made with Fresh Fig, Lemon Lime Twist, and Tranquil Tide. So far Tranquil Tide is my favorite; it reminds me of the deep bluish green on the Stoney Creek cross stitch patterns I used to stitch when I was a kid. And I thought these three new colors fit pretty well with the Cupcake Inspirations color challenge:
Pretty. I also used this week's Freshly Made Sketch:
I paired the brand new colors with some flower stamps that are retiring, so this fits with the Retro Rubber Challenge:
Pretty sure I've had Flower Patch for about three years, and I've made quite a few projects with it. The Hello You Thinlits are retiring as well, also a favorite here at Snapdragon Stamps. But just because they're retiring doesn't mean they're leaving my craft room. I'm like a dragon with her hoard when it comes to crafty supplies ;)
My little baby Sodapop is doing tummy time on the floor next to me while I eat breakfast (homemade apple cranberry muffins, thanks again to Sally's fabulous muffin recipe!), but I'm hoping he'll take a nap here in a little bit so I can go work in my craft room again. I'm working on a scrapbook project and I also really want to play around more with these new colors...
Cheers, y'all!
Supplies, all SU!

Ink: Fresh Fig, Lemon Lime Twist, Tranquil Tide

I agree with you that the new in-colours are fantastic and you've showcased them well. Isn't it a good feeling to mix old stamps with new things? Thanks for joining us again at Retro Rubber for our spring flower challenge.
