Colour Renovation

Bringing you a new world of colour with Stampin' Up!'s Colour Renovation.

I’m thrilled with this change & totally agree it’s what we need, I can see myself using all the colours (currently I don’t use or own several!), I will however miss a few & are sad they were chosen to retire, being Sage Shadow, Ruby Red & Taken with Teal but hey I look at it as a few lost and many more gained. It won’t take effect here in OZ ‘till September 1 with the release of the New Idea Book & Catalogue, giving us plenty of time to decide what we will do for this transition.

The new colour palette is organized into four collections making up 40 Stampin' Up! Core Colours (10 colours in each--no longer called colour families): Brights, Neutrals, Regals and Subtles. Check the colour chart to the right to see what the new collection looks like.You will see 25 of our current colours remaining, and ten past In Colours returning as core colours, and the addition of five new core colours.

In Colours (old and current) that are now a part of the Core Colours: Melon Mambo, Rich Razzleberry, Pacific Point, Tangerine Tango, River Rock, Soft Suede, Riding Hood Red, Pink Pirouette, Baja Breeze, Wild Wasabi.

Introducing five new Core Colours: Daffodil Delight (the perfect yellow), Early Espresso (deep brown), Cajun Craze (rich, rusty orange), Cherry Cobbler (relevant red), Marina Mist (not too green shade of blue)
