After a long winter nap...

How about a fresh blogging start! And what better way to have a fresh blogging start than with some exciting news about some fresh Stampin' colors!!

New Stampin’ Up Colors!!

Color is one of Stampin’ Up!’s core products and I love playing with color as much as you do. I am so excited to announce that Stampin’ Up is renovating their color palette with the new 2010-2011 Idea Book & catalog available July 1. They are bringing you gorgeous colors that work well for what you create and keep the color palette current and fresh.

With this change 25 current colors will carryover as part of the Stampin’ Up! color collections. In addition they are bringing back 10 very popular In-Colors!! Customers and demonstrators have been pleading to have some favorite In-Colors return, and Stampin’ Up! listened. The icing on the cake is 5 BRAND NEW CORE COLORS!!! Early Espresso, Marina Mist, Cherry Cobbler, Cajun Craze and Daffodil Delight are a beautiful new addition to the color collections.

In addition to the 5 new core colors, Stampin’ Up! will also be introducing 5 new In-Colors with the new 2010-2011 Idea Book & catalog. In-Colors will now stay current for 2 years, with 5 new colors introduced each year! That means in addition to the 40 core colors, starting in July 2011 you will always have 10 In-Colors available as well.

Fond Farewell

Although I’m extremely excited about the new color collections, it means we’ll be saying a fond farewell to some of my old time favorites as well. I’m not sure what I’ll do without Brocade Blue, so I’m going to make sure I stock up before it’s gone for good! If you have a color that you are in love with, be sure to keep that in mind and place an order. Here’s a list of the colors we’ll be saying goodbye to.

I’m so glad Stampin’ Up! has updated its color palette to keep it on trend. This change is going to give us so many new color options, which will be so much fun to play and craft with! Starting in July, I can teach you all about the new offering and demonstrate projects using the new colors. Talk to me about scheduling your workshop where you can learn about and earn some of the new color products.

I look forward to sharing these new color collections with you soon!
