The new 2021-2022 Annual Catalogue adds five fresh, on-trend colours to the Stampin' Up! palette. One of those five colours is... POLISHED PINK - a medium shade of bubblegum pink with a slightly cool, purple tone. Take a look at how this new hue compares with some of our familiar core colours...

I used the Artistically Inked Bundle and chose some of the gorgeous patterned papers that feature Polished Pink from the Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper to create this Thank You card...

The Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper has beautiful inky patterns that were created using watercolour and marbleised alcohol ink techniques.  Of course, when you read Specialty Designer Series Paper in the title, you know there is something special about it... this exquisite paper has gold foil marbling and imagery too!

I picked out the deep-purple colour from the designer paper and stamped the lovely, bold words from the Artistically Inked stamp set in Rich Razzleberry ink.  The three little flowers were stamped in Polished Pink ink, die-cut, and scattered across the card front.

I couldn't stop with just one project, so I put together one of the very cute Simply Classic Treat Boxes and added some Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper, wrapping it with corded gold trim and adding those sweet Polished Pink flowers...
