We have a new Notecard color... Dove Gray, and it's a perfect match for our Spearmint, Gossamer and Frond 6x6's and their 12x12's too. It also coordinates beautifully with our Soiree Shimmer and Matte stationery - a few of the 32 colors are shown here.
OK - you're probably wondering how anyone can be thrilled enough to blog about gray notecards, considering all the other great Memory Box colors we already have. Maybe it's a function of age, AARP and all of that good stuff. Or maybe it's because Dove Gray enhances other colors and looks great with brights, pastels and other neutrals.
I love gray, and laugh when I recall that a designer told me - about three years ago - that gray would never become popular and that chartreuse would be gone in two years.
Here's Dove Gray with two of our new spring stamps - First Flight and Springtime Wishes Block - and more butterflies punched from Soiree Lake, Celery and Aqua Matte Cardstock. The background is from our Skylights 12x12 print. I punched an extra set of Dove Gray butterflies and layered them beneath the Soiree butterflies to add dimension and create the illusion of a soft shadow.
oh! this is a pretty card
