Big News from Stampin' Up!

The Color Revolution

After two years of exhaustive research Stampin' Up! has revamped their entire color palette!  While I am sad to see some of the colors go I am excited about the new colors being offered and the return of some lovely past In-Colors!

Where did these colors come from?  Well, some of them carry over from the previous palette, some are previous In-Colors, and some are brand new!

So, which colors are retiring?

If some of your favorites are in this group my advice is to start stocking up! They will no longer be available after June 30, 2010.

With the news of the revamped palette comes a new In-Color policy.  Instead of having In-Colors available for only one year, the new In-Colors will be available for two years!  Each year a new set of five In-Colors will be released and will be available in addition to the In-Colors from the previous year so you will have 10 colors to play with in addition to the 40 in the core color families.

Stampin' Up! will continue to offer card stock in the following colors in addition to the core color families: Brushed Gold, Brushed Silver, Confetti Cream, Confetti White, Glossy White, Naturals Ivory, Naturals White, Shimmery White, and White vellum card stock, as well as White vellum paper. If you are wondering what happened to Kraft it has now been renamed Crumb Cake and is included in the new Neutral Color Family.

For some of you this announcement may come as a shock, especially if you have been building your collection of core colors from Stampin' Up!  To help ease the transition Stampin' Up! will be offering  Card Stock and Classic Pads, Stampin’ Write Markers, Watercolor Wonder Crayons, and Stampin’ Pastels New Color Kits.

I can't wait to get my hands on the new colors!
