October Collection
Color Palette
In case you missed it, watch #replay of the Color Crush unboxing on YouTube.
What's Ahead?
Celebrate special moments old and new with November's In Focus collection. The color palette of gorgeous green, deep purple and shades of cream are paired with retro patterns and vintage-inspired artwork that will add classic charm to your paper crafting. Stay tuned for the spoiler tentatively scheduled for Wednesday, October 28.
Fonts and Inks
The text elements in this month's collection were created by pairing the Lucious Lifestyles Script with the Montage Serif font. If you're looking for ink colors to coordinate with the October color palette, I recommend Fuchsia, Lagoon, and Yellow CS® Hybrid ink. Classic India Black is always an excellent choice for line art imagery and text.
