sneak peek card

Okay, I couldn't resist showing this one. it's made using some of the new supplies. I used the new Circle Circus stamp set to make the flower. I also used the new Rich Razzleberry IN Color to stamp it and also the new dotted ribbon is the same color. I thought it was a fun way to use the circles and the new color. I really like this color by the way. I also put dimensionals under the circle to help pop it up too.
So what do you think? It's fairly simple and showcases some of the new colors. Some days, I like simple. So I hope you enjoy my card and I hope you remember that each day is a precious gift and enjoy the day.

Here is what I used to make this card:
stamps: Circle Circus, Refuge and Strength (in current catalog)
ink: rich razzleberry
papers: whisper white, rich razzleberry, garden green
accessories: dotted razzleberry ribbon, scallop circle & 1 3/8" circle punches, big shot, little leaves sizzlet, dimensionals

Some IN color comparisons

I'm posting some pictures of some comparisons of some of the new IN colors. The one on the right side is always the new IN color. Hope this helps you visualize some of them.
Here is the Crushed Curry (yellow) color on the right.
It's compared to So Saffron and Yo Yo Yellow (in order).




On this one the Soft Suede is on the right.
Close to Cocoa and then Chocolate Chip is displayed. Against these colors Soft Suede almost has a greenish tint.






This one showcases two of the colors:
1. Dusty Durango (orangeish color). It's compared to Really Rust and Pumpkin Pie.
2. Bermuda Bay (blueish color - right).
Tempting Turquoise and Taken with Teal are next to it.




This one is Rich Razzleberry (bottom right).
It's shown with Elegant Eggplant and Lovely Lilac.







This one is Melon Mambo (right).
It is compared with Rose Red, Pixie Pink, Regal Rose.

So I hope these help you visualize how they compare to the regular colors. These are very rich colors in real life.
I hope you enjoy seeing these comparisons.

New IN Colors

I have to say I love the new catalog already and I already have a very long list of items to get and I still have items in the current catalog I like. I think I need to get another job to support my habit. :) I can't wait to show everyone. We can't show pics of the new catty until it's released, but it has some different types of new things in it and I like it. Still haven't seen the spanish catalog or the new Decor elements yet though. I've ordered catalogs for those of you that normal get them, but they haven't shipped yet. So far they have only released the one they provide their demonstrators.


Anyways, I just got my preview stuff.
Here are the new IN colors for the year. They are very rich.

For the preview items we were allowed to purchase a set of ink pads, papers, and ribbons to get us started and ready for next month. Some days it's really cool to be a demo. I love getting new stuff - and being the first one to get to see everything. It's so much fun.

So do you see what's cool about the middle picture? IN color markers! For the first time ever they are going to have IN Color markers. I'm excited, so now we can color in parts of the various stamp sets to match now and don't have to try and remove color anymore.

This last one has an item I forgot to include in the above picture and that is the polka dotted ribbon in the IN colors (this is a sample of just one though.) It's polka dotted on one side and solid on the other, so you can use either side.
So here is your sneak peek. I'll show the scallop circles tomorrow as it's really late tonight. It will show you how the new colors compare to our current colors. Hope you have a great day.
