Color Renovation

I am excited to share a Stampin' Up! announcement with you! I am so excited by this announcement and I just can’t wait for July! What is it you say? Colour Renovation!

It's huge and it's super! The color renovation changes will take place in the new Idea book and Catalogue that is released July 1st. We will see 4 Color Collections that each contains 10 core colors. Of the 40 core colors, 5 are brand spanking new, 10 are returning In-Colors from previous years and the rest are carryover colors. The collections are called Brights, Neutrals, Regals and Subtles. As well, we will have 5 brand new In-Colors that will stay current for 2 years!

Of course this means we do have to bid a fond adieu to a quite a few current colors. But there is lots of time to stock up on your favourites that are leaving.

You may see or hear some negative comments about this change. Stampin’ Up! did not decide to do this on a whim. This change came about after almost 2 years of extensive research, focus groups, etc. Any company needs to stay fresh and current and Stampin’ Up! is doing just that with this Color Renovation!

The Color Collections will be:

Brights Collection: Regal Rose, Melon Mambo, Rich Razzleberry, Pacific point, Tempting Turquoise, Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Tangerine Tango, Real Red

{Can you guess which two colors have me jumping for joy?}
