Mailbox Goodies: Mini Rainbow

Well, ever since I got my first Lamy Safari from JetPens, I have gone a little bonkers and suddenly realized there was a pink within grasp, and an aquamarine that would soon be out of my grasp (like the orange, which is now about $70 to acquire). I picked up the pink and aquamarine at the Pen Boutique. I couldn't resist putting them together and taking a few pictures

They are prettier than I expected!

I got the extra-fine on the green Safari, a medium on the aquamarine, and a 1.5 mm calligraphy nib on the pink.

The colors matched perfectly, so I had to put them together, obviously. Don't they look wonderful? It reminds me of Skittles!
Anyone have an orange Safari they no longer fancy and want to sell it?? For less than $70, hopefully...?

You are actually missing 2 items :(  the orange and the lime, 2012 green is the apple.

I suppose the aquamarine and pink are supposed to be bowl colors that hold the fruit salad  :)  -  if so, Lamy needs to give us a purple for berries or grapes.  The Al-Stars don't count.

 Cheers!

As if I need more colors to track down buahaha. I am trying to find them somewhere "affordable"... I would totally kill for a purple!!!! DO YOU HEAR ME LAMY?!?! I actually prefer the colors of the Safari than Vistas... they're so much more vivid and rich and warm!

I feel you on the $70 for the orange. I want the lime from 2008 and it cost $120. I hope that the next one is purple too. I have the Al-Stars and they all look the same ex. Raspberry, Black-Purple and Ruby Red.

Oh.. I love that pic! Sigh. I kind of wish I hadn't started getting the Safaris because now I want the "whole set"...
