Burmuda Bay, Rich Razzleberry and Melon Mambo!


I'm loving the new In Colors!!  Don't the names -- Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo, Rich Razzleberry, Crushed Curry, Soft Suede, Dusty Durango -- just roll off you tongue?  Very evocative! 


The new polka-dot grosgrain ribbons are totally fabulous, too.  They're printed on only one side, but the back is the usual beautiful grosgrain, so it looks great either way.  


I'm not allowed by Stampin Up! to tell you details of what is in the new catalog, but suffice it to say that it's FABULOUS!   I cannot wait until July 1 to place an order!


This is my first card using one of the new preorder sets, Circle Circus.  I had a hard time with this, but am getting some new ideas together.  I do wish that I'd used the Burmuda Bay ribbon instead of the Melon Mambo, though.  Oh well, maybe next time!


I layered Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo, Rich Razzleberry and a sheet from the Razzleberry Lemonade ds. At the four corners and the center of the "flower" are rhinestone brads.


SU sets:  Circle Circus, Happy Everything


SU cardstock:  Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo, Rich Razzleberry, Razzleberry Lemonade ds, white


SU inks:  Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo, Rich Razzleberry


Accessories:  Rhinestone brads, aquapainter, pieces from Styled Silver HPH, Melon Mambo polka-dot grosgrain ribbon (love this!)
