Prize for best overall coordinated picture goes to @HoneyLocks for this vision in blue (she said this Mare aux Canards is faded; if so, I want a faded one too!):
UnderstandableHi @Julide, I agree on the scarf, and I love the shadows! I so often find @Croisette7 has CWs that I adore.
Thanks for posting; things have been quiet on this thread as I have been working long hours and, although I have things to post, I haven't gotten to it yet. Soon, I hope, and I always happy to see what others find exceptional in CWs...
So nice to “see” you @Jahna!I will try to see if I spot more of these matte colours. Thanks for the information!!I finally got back on here! Some app? called tata something would not let me login.
Re: the scarf above @Julide , I assume there are other matte colors. I have found a cream, but I keep finding it in more and more scarves. As for the scarf above, what a GORGEOUS CW!!! I hope someone nice got it.

Thank you for contributing MT!I enjoy finding out new informationOn the subject of matte non-transparent inks ...
H has recently been using dull matte metallic (silver) inks for the signature and/or copyright. Probably to make them show up on a wider variety of cws. The black CPs used to disappear on dark cws. The new ink is not super shiny but distinctly silver - not gray.
The overall impression is a lot different from the 1980s - 1990s metallic inks which were quite bright
