Delightful Dijon was the color of the day for this card. And the pink ribbon was just an afterthought. With the sentiment “hope”, I thought why not use a pink ribbon? I don’t think there are any hard and fast rules for what colors work with a pink ribbon and using Delightful Dijon as the main color only makes the pink ribbon stand out. And when sending a card of hope, you want the message to stand out.
This card is part of my “tour of the retiring In Colors 2015-2017”. Stampin’ Up! rotates a selection of 5 colors into the line for a 2 year run. It is an easy way to add some new spark to the color line up and take advantage of the newest color trends. I love the In Colors! I find even if I don’t warm up to them at first, after a few project these colors become well-loved. I have to admit I wasn’t crazy about Delightful Dijon when I first saw it. But I am really going to miss it now.
