The Brights Collection is vibrant and cheerful.
The Subtles Collection is soft and muted.
The Regals Collection is jewel-toned and rich.
The Neutrals Collection contain varying shades of neutral colors, including browns, grays, black, and white.
The In Colors are the more trendy colors. In Colors are made of two sets of five colors. Five new colors are introduced every year at the Annual catalog launch in June. These five colors last for two years, so there is always something fresh and exciting.
The current In Colors are Cucumber Crush, Delightful Dijon, Mint Macaron, Tip Top Taupe, and Watermelon Wonder. These colors were introduced in the 2015-2016 Annual Catalog. They are available until May 31st, 2017.
Last year's In Colors are Blackberry Bliss, Hello Honey, Lost Lagoon, Mossy Meadow, and Tangelo Twist. They were introduced in the 2014-2015 Annual Catalog. They are available until May 31st, 2016. These In Colors will be retired May 31st, 2016. If you like the 2014-2016 In Color Collection, I recommend you order them now before they run out. The In Color products (ink pads, ink refills, cardstock, ribbon, embellishments, etc.) are the first things (especially ink refills) to go when the new Annual catalog release date approaches. I ordered extras of these colors for my own order in January.
UPDATE: The 2016-2018 In Colors are Dapper Denim, Emerald Envy, Flirty Flamingo, Peekaboo Peach, and Sweet Sugarplum.
All fifty of Stampin' Up!'s colors come in a wide range of products, including ink pads, ink refills, markers, cardstock, ribbons, brads, and buttons. The colors from each product are coordinated as closely as possible so that all of the products in, for example, Pool Party look the same.
I have created a printable with all of Stampin' Up! current colors for a quick reference guide. Click here to download.
Let's get started! Using the ink pads was the second thing I taught my family (Stamp Styles was the first). Check out these two great Stampin' Up! video on how to open, use, close, refill, and label your ink pads. The second video says to use a bone folder or spoon to spread the ink over the top of the ink pad when refilling the ink pad. This is a fantastic tip! However, if you don't want to stain your bone folder, you can also use an expired credit card or an expired gift card instead.
Thanks for stopping by!
