I cleaned my desk, schedule & craft room Monday morning hoping that my pre-order goodies would arrive early this week.

Much to my delight they actually arrived mid-morning & of course, I just had to have a play.  Oh the excitement!  I couldn’t get the box opened quick enough to see the new 2015-2017 In Colours in the flesh.  Let me say you won’t be disappointed – they are gorgeous!

The day in the garden, weeding & much loved trip to the dump would have to wait for another day!

As the catalogue is not released as yet, I can only give you a very “sneak peek” at one f the sets I pre-ordered.  Oh how I love this set “You’ve Got This“.  Lots of colouring & playing going to happen here.

See the background – that is stamped with an image from the new stamp set using one of the new In Colours – Mint Macaron.  The flower has been coloured with my Blender Pen, along with Watermelon Wonder (another new In Colour) & Calypso Coral.

I used a piece of Calypso Coral Card across the middle & cut the White Jute Ribbon (from the Occasions Catalogue) in half & pulled a couple of strands from the top & bottom of the Ribbon.  This gives it a little bit of a shabby look.  With one of the strands, I tied a small bow & adhered it to the flower with a Glue Dot.

You will have to check back 2 June to see the whole card & tutorial.

If you would like a copy of the catalogue, please feel free to contact me.

Until next time, Happy Stampin’
