+## 📣 What was new in Paste?
+
+### Filter pattern
+
+<Box marginBottom="space60">
+  <Box
+    borderColor="colorBorderWeaker"
+    borderStyle="solid"
+    borderWidth="borderWidth10"
+    borderRadius="borderRadius20"
+    overflow="hidden"
+  >
+    <Box
+      as={Image}
+      maxWidth="100%"
+      height="100%"
+      src={FiltersPattern}
+      alt="Gif of Filters Pattern"
+      style={{ objectFit: "contain" }}
+    />
+  </Box>
+</Box>
+
+We've updated our [filter pattern](/patterns/filter)! The simplified layout uses Form Pills, Popovers, and Side Panel to reduce visual noise and help customers focus on the data and information that matter most.
+
+### Corner Ornament component
+
+<Box width="100%" maxWidth="400px" display="block" margin="0 auto">
+  <ResponsiveBorderedImage src={CornerOrnament} alt="Preview of Corner Ornament component" />
+</Box>
+
+The [Corner Ornament](/components/corner-ornament) component lets you quickly relate 2 graphic elements to each other. Use it to show unread notifications, cart counts, relationships in Tables, and more. The component supports a variety of Avatar and Icon sizes with built-in cutouts.
+
+### Paste Figma library featuring typography and effect variables
+
+<Box marginBottom="space60">
+  <Box
+    borderColor="colorBorderWeaker"
+    borderStyle="solid"
+    borderWidth="borderWidth10"
+    borderRadius="borderRadius20"
+    overflow="hidden"
+  >
+    <Box
+      as={Image}
+      maxWidth="100%"
+      height="100%"
+      src={FigmaTypography}
+      alt="Gif of Figma Typography"
+      style={{ objectFit: "contain" }}
+    />
+  </Box>
+</Box>
+
+We added typography and effect variables to the [Paste Components & Themes](https://www.figma.com/file/l2qtpQVMmXzQPVB3rEAA8i/Paste-Components-%26-Themes?type=design&node-id=3015-46646&mode=design&t=LavBWI8WtuCpWbz0-0) Figma library for more accurate swapping between Twilio, Twilio Dark, Evergreen, Default, and Dark themes.
+
+[Learn more about how to swap modes](https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/15343816063383-Modes-for-variables#h_01H3ADKDF7JBTRV1Z5P1X1DZVE).
+
+### Additional updates
+
+#### New
+
+- Added new [icons](/components/icon) for RCSCapable and SupportRequest.
+
+#### Updates
+
+- [Badge](/components/badge#counter) has a new notification_counter variant.
+
+And thank you for all these contributions, Joe Fehrman!:
+
+- [Form Pill Groups](/components/form-pill-group#large) now have a large variant to support the Filter pattern
+- [User Dialog](/components/user-dialog) has a smaller default size based on feedback from our consumers

+## ✨ Pastemates™ spotlight
+
+Pastemates are individuals and teams who have been critical contributors to Paste, through advocating for adoption within their products and channeling important feedback and contributions back into the system.\_

+
+In this edition of Pastemates, we're spotlighting a mate from the Platform Engineering team, **Andrés Rodríguez Cortés**! Andrés built One Admin pages with minimal guidance outside of the written guidelines on the Paste doc site.
+
+He recently attended Comms Platform UX office hours for a gut check on his implementation. Principal Designer **Andy Doyle** was thoroughly impressed with what he was able to achieve, saying it's an “exceptional standard using latest Paste and all the guidance.”

+
+Bravo to Andrés and his attention to detail!
