Hi gardens...I rarely click into links, but curiosity got the best of me...wanted to know what the heck limpet shell looked like!  The only colors I liked were serenity and snorkel blue.  Who comes up with these names?

@gardensla:  Thanks for the link. I can't say that l'm enthralled with any of the colors. But l imagine that by next spring, l'll be so tired of looking at all the dreary winter colors, that l'll probably be thrilled with them!

I am already seeing rose quartz popping up for fall. Pretty color, but one that would make me look dead, LOL. Most of the colors are not for me. No problem, as I will continue to stay with those old standbys of black, white, gray and the occasional shots of blue and magenta.

Spring colors are rarely my favorites and it looks as if 2016 won't change me.

I love most of these!  I love rose quartz, and the greyed lilac, so "me."  Yay!

Iced coffee, I like. The rest, meh.
There are many elements: wind, fire, water
But none quite like the element of surprise

Rose quartz - same "family" as marsala, just a lighter spring version!

 

I can't wear rose quartz - it'll pale me out too much.  Now marsala....perfect for my coloring.
