Big Hugs | Concord & 9th 2023 Color Release (25 New Colors!)

SkyPaperScissors

Hello and welcome! I’m so very excited for Concord & 9th’s 2023 Color release today! There are 25 new colors that round out the Concord & 9th collection perfectly. Colors are available in ink pads, ink cubes, refills, cardstock, and enamel dots. And, we’re hopping over on Instagram, so please be sure to head over for a visit if you’d like to see lots of inspiration using the complete Concord & 9th color spectrum and enter for a chance to win a prize.

My card today features the brand new Flower Press layering stencil set along with a few new ink colors (Sweet Pea, Clementine, and Tidepool) mixed with two of my favorite from the original color release (Buttercup and Sprout). The sentiment is from the Just Say More die set, also releasing today. I die cut it from the new Blueberry cardstock and then added Glossy Accents for a shine.
