2026-2028 IN COLORS WITH FERN & FLORA

This week I am going to be showing off our beautiful new 2026 - 2028 In Colors.  The five new colors are Barely Blush, Crisp Cantaloupe, Golden Glow, Peaceful Pine and Hydrangea Hue.

This card features the five new colors in a strip across the front of the card.  The colors are placed on the card in the order listed above.

I'm still trying to decide which one is my favorite.  At the moment I keep bouncing between Peaceful Pine and Hydrangea Hue -- but if history repeats itself, I'll probably find a new favorite once I start playing with these colors a bit more.

Do you have a favorite?

The background for today's card was made with the lighter side of Garden Green Two-Tone cardstock.  I embossed it with the brand-new Fern & Flora Embossing folder from the new Moonlit Flora Suite Collection.  Then I sanded the embossed surface lightly to reveal the white inner core of the two-tone cardstock.

Doesn't this easy technique give a nice effect?  

The die cut fern and the sentiment are both from the Fern & Flora Bundle.  And can you see the three tiny butterflies?  These adorable butterfly embellishments are also in the new May - August catalog and come in all the 2026-2028 In Colors.

I left the inside of the card sentiment free but added a larger strip of the embossed and sanded two tone cardstock to coordinate with the card front.

You can also see a peek of the envelope flap made with the same technique, but for it I used the dark side of the Garden Green two-tone cardstock to create just a bit of contrast.
