You’ve got a friend in me!
You know what’s sad? The retirement of In Colors. Every year it makes me sad. I hate to see In Colors retire. Especially, this past two years. But you know what? There’s hope on the horizon. There are rumors that perhaps the retired In Colors might pop back up…
Today, however, I want to remember last year’s Groovy Guava and Soft Sky. What fabulous colors! The whole card was inspired by the Sweetness embellishment I used.
I stamped the images in Close to Cocoa, Groovy Guava, and Soft Sky. I sponged the white cardstock (PTI) with the Soft Sky. Then I did something I’ve never done before. I outlined the images! I used Chocolate Chip, Cameo Coral, and Bordering Blue SWMs to do the outlining.
Did you notice the sparkle? This is actually colored with a Clear Stardust Sakura Pen. What an excellent source to outline fine lines! If you want to add a little sparkle with a fine line, this is your tool! It is a great addition to your pen collection! I’m totally loving it!
Are you curious about the new In Colors to be released July 1st? Well, here you go:

Lovely card! I too am sad that the In Colors are retiring, especially Baja Breeze, and Riding Hood Red. =( I hope they decide to keep that red–it is a much richer red than what SU! has now. As for this year’s new In Color-I might have to get all but Crushed Curry and Dusty Durango since I am not a big fan of those colors. I never opened my Tangerine Tango (or is it Tango Tangerine) so big lesson learned there!
Hello, Remmeber me
