Colour Refresh - The Discontinued Subtles

Stop press! I have made a card!  It is a really quick and simple one as I wanted to show you a couple of things.

I told you yesterday about the exciting Colour Refresh we will be seeing in the new Annual Catalogue (out on 1 July 2013). This card showcases the four colours in the current Subtles Collection that we will be losing - namely Baja Breeze, Pretty in Pink, Bashful Blue and Certainly Celery.  

Do you recognise the punch? Yep, the Petite Curly Label Punch was one of the fabulous items that was available during Sale-a-bration. Well it is here to stay and is now available to order. It will also carry forward to the New Annual Catalogue.

So to the card! The card base is Naturals White. The image is from the Ciao, Baby! Stamp Set in the Spring / Summer Catalogue. It was stamped in Baja Breeze ink and punched out with the Petite Curly Label Punch. Shapes were also punched in the four retiring subtle colours and arranged on the card. The ribbon is Certainly Celery 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon (which will also be discontinued).  The sentiment was popped up using Stampin' Dimensionals and the bottom corners rounded using the Corner Punch.

Ciao' Baby! Stamp Set by Stampin' Up!

Here is a list of the Stampin' Up! Products used to make today's card:

Stamp Sets: Ciao, Baby!

Inks: Baja Breeze

Cardstock: Naturals White, Baja Breeze, Pretty in Pink, Bashful Blue and Certainly Celery.
