Does anyone have a list of what Distress colors match the 49 & Market sherbet colors? Trying to make my own embellishments.

Great question! I eagerly ran to my distress ink swatches to match-em-up!
I didn't find great immediate matches. The spectrum sherbet line is a more muted tone and the distress inks/oxides are more vibrant.
And I suspect I maybe don't have some shades that might match.
ORANGE: I *think* dried marigold might be it but I don't own it
YELLOW: I strongly suspect this should be scattered straw.
PINK: spun sugar.
GREEN: shabby shutters
LIGHT BLUEY SHADE: speckled egg
the deeper BLUE was hard to match at all, and I own all the distress blues except stormy sky. I would use faded jeans but it's not perfect.
MINT: reasonable match to DILUTE cracked pistachio; full strength is was too bright.
Maybe this is why I was so drawn to the spectrum sherbet lines- even though it's a typical rainbow the colours are different than our expected AC colours?

Thanks Kitbop - I'll have to take a look to see which ones I have and try some color combos.

Thanks @kitbob! I have been watching this thread. Initially I thought I would be pulling out my really bright and saturated inks for this line. I appreciate you doing some swatching. It definitely gives me a different starting point than I thought  |

My LSS did a couple of lives with this product and used a few different colors. One of the demonstrators used Peeled Paint, Speckled Egg and Saltwater Taffy Oxides with the card kit.
The other time they showed it, they matched up Kitsch Flamingo, Peacock Feathers, Evergreen Bough, Shabby Shutters, Squeezed Lemonade. I'm not sure which orange they decided on.
I guess it depends on whether you want to match exactly, or just be kinda close to it. Also, it probably depends on whether you are using Oxides or regular inks because of the vibrancy of the colors.
