I am excited to be able to tell you about a whole new world of colour in Stampin’ Up!’s Colour Renovation.

For over two years, Stampin’ Up! have done extensive research including investigating colour trends in the fashion, home décor, and crafting industries, and have conducted focus groups involving demonstrators, customers, and Stampin’ Up! experts. They have found that it was time to update the colours so that you have a fresh, on-trend colour palette to work with! 

Retiring Colours

As with any renovation, there has to be changes and this does mean we will be saying goodbye to a few old friends. If you find you can’t bear to be without any of these colours just contact me to stock up on ink pads, cardstock, ink refills, markers and ribbons.

The New Colour Palette.

But the excitment of new colours should make up for any disappointment. The new colour palette is organised into four collections: Subtles, Brights, Regals, and Neutrals. 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. Check the colour charts to see what the new collections look like.

New In Colour Programme

One part of our Colour Renovation that we’re sure you’re going to love is the new In Colour programme! Each year we will introduce five new In Colours, and they will remain for two years. This means that the 2010-2011 In Colours will be introduced this year, but will not be retired until the 2012-2013 colours are introduced. This year there will be only be five In Colours, but after that, we will always have ten (the previous year’s plus the new). Look for a later announcement on this year’s In Colours.
