This card compares Mint Macaron with three other current Stampin' Up! colours...

Mint Macaron is a grey-green with a pinch of blue. Greener than Lost Lagoon, but not as green as Pear Pizzazz, this duck-egg colour is similar to Pool Party, just warmer and more grey. Mint Macaron is a soft dusty colour that has been called a chameleon, as it can look more blue or green depending on what it is paired with.

Because I wanted an envelope to coordinate with the Mint Macaron card, I used the new Envelope Paper and the Envelope Punch Board...

2015-2017 In Colour Envelope Paper (138312) - $12.75

This card features a new butterfly embossing folder and a fabulous new multi-layered stamp set called Watercolor Wings. This stamp set has two gorgeous butterfly images with many stamping layers. This one is the smallest butterfly and I have stamped the first layer in So Saffron, the centre layer in Smoky Slate and the wing-tips in Mint Macaron...

Here's another card I created using Mint Macaron and the Watercolor Wings stamp set. It's a card-in-a-box using the English Garden DSP, and is one of the projects we will be creating at the July Workshops...

The smallest butterfly in the Watercolor Wings stamp set (stamped here in Hello Honey and Mint Macaron) is die-cut with the Butterflies Thinlits. And for the largest butterfly (stamped here in Blushing Bride and Mint Macaron) there's a new coordinating die set called Bold Butterfly. This new set of dies also has a small delicately-lacy butterfly die, which I have used on the front panel with vellum. The bonus is that Stampin' Up! is offering the Watercolor Wings and Bold Butterfly Framelits as a discounted bundle...

The vellum butterfly is finished with an elegant Metal Rimmed Pearl and Blushing Bride Sequin Trim. Love what you see?
