Change is FRESH and FUN...

Stampin' Up! has just announced an EXCITING change!!! Stampin' Up! colors are getting re-vamped!!! They are adding FIVE new colors to their core color collections AND bringing back 10 past In-Color colors!!!! WOWSERS! :) They are retiring some of the colors that aren't as popular and just freshening up all their color lines! Colors will now be organized in "Color Collections" instead of "Color Families." I honestly am SO EXCITED! The new colors they are adding are FABULOUS. Here is a color chart of what it will all look like...

Now...I am sad to see some go. (YES! I will be stocking up on some before they are gone! :) ) Here are the ones we are saying goodbye to....I think this is such great news though and am glad it's finally happening! :) Also....they will still be bringing out FIVE new In Colors each year!!! And they will be current for TWO years, instead of one. So...this year there will be FIVE new colors added (should be announced by July when the new catalog comes out). Then next year...these will still stay current and just five new ones will be added. Make sense? After this year...there will always be 10 In Colors to choose from! :) What FUN!
