Today’s new In Color showcase is a little different. I’m shining the spotlight on two of the new 2024-2026 In Colors. They look so beautiful together, I had to pair them. Summer Splash and Petunia Pop are two deep toned pastels that will add the perfect something to any project you create.

My card design is a little stepped up from yesterday’s showcase. I was inspired by a card I created for a Paper Players Sketch Challenge a few years ago. I thought the design would show off the colors in the Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper perfectly.

So, I think we can go ahead and make a card!

Parts & Pieces

• I cut a standard A-2 Summer Splash card base 11″ x 4 1/4″, scored at 5 1/2″.
• The Basic White mat layer is 4 1/8″ x 5 3/8″.
• Cut the floral patterned paper layer 4″ x 5 1/4″.

Tomorrow, I’ll be showcasing the last color of the five new 2024-2026 In Colors – Shy Shamrock. Be sure to check back in.

So, match two vibrant, on trend colors, add a neutral, a few patterned paper strips, elements and a sentiment, and create something to share a smile.

… the only limitation is your imagination!
