So every year I do up a comparision of the new In Colors. As a Demo, I was able to get the new In Colors today! The new catalog comes out July 1st. I made this project for my upcoming new catlog party. In the meantime, I hope you like this project that I put together!
Here is my project in its entirety:
The colors I used for the Island Indigo flower cluster - Clockwise from 9:00 - Not Quite Navy, Pacific Point, Marina Mist and Island Indigo. I really like Island indigo! At first glance, I thought it reminded me of Not Quite Navy, but it is on the brighter side, but not as bright as Pacific Point. Here's a close up:
The colors I used for the Calypso Coral flower cluster - Clockwise from 9:00 - Cameo Coral (retired), tangerine Tango, Peach Parfait and Calypso Coral. I think this one might be my favorite new In Color. Of course I had to compare it to retired Cameo Coral. Calypso Coral is so much prettier. Here's a close up:
The colors I used for the Lucky Limeade flower cluster - Clockwise from 9:00 -Pear Pizazz, Old Olive, Wild Wasabi and Lucky Limeade. Here's a close up:
The colors I used for the Wisteria Wonder flower cluster - Clockwise from 9:00 -Lovely Lilac (retired), Elegant Eggplant, Pale Plum (retired) and Wisteria Wonder. I'm not too sure about Wisteria Wonder. It's a bit dull for me. Here's a close up:
The colors I used for the Pool Party flower cluster - Clockwise from 9:00 -Soft Sky (retired), Baja Breeze, Bashful Blue, and Pool Party. Pool Party is a nice color. It is very close to what we already have though. But, you can never have too many shades of the same color! lol Here's a close up:

Hi Michelle,
I found your awesome Mario Bros work for your son on the Stamp with Tami blog and I thought they were such brilliant ideas I really wanted to share it on my Mario Bros Party Ideas page for other Mums.
I hope you're ok with it being featured on there... I've made sure to link them back to this website.
Let me know if it's not ok and I'll remove it. You can reach me at pipgerard@gmail.com
