We don't have any full fledged color spectrums to offer up this month with buttons, ribbons and all the bells and whistles. But what we DO have are two FABULOUS-can't-live-without neutrals that you are just guaranteed to fall in love with! Since I have started using them in my own projects I have fallen head over heels!
The two colors are Smokey Shadow and Soft Stone.
Smokey Shadow is a deep, dark charcoal color that can be found throughout fashion right now. Some fashion analysts even claim that it is *the new black*. I love the richness of it and how it has a bit of a softer edge to contribute to a project rather than the bold True Black we carry. Smokey Shadow pairs well with many of our other colors. I am anxious to play around a bit more with it and find some favorites. The coordinating ink is the exact same color as the Charcoal Palette ink, so if you already own that, then you are good to go! We are not presenting ribbons or buttons in this color, since they would be so close to black, however customer demand may change our decision!
Soft Stone cardstock is being sold as part of our Paper Basics line-up, so it has no other coordinating products. It is a very light, beautiful powdery gray that can be used as a neutral in place of white or cream. It partners well with Smokey Shadow for monochromatic looks. I've found that it works well on projects that are more cool or blue-toned in place of a stark white or cream.
I hope you are as excited about these additions as we are!
