You've probably already heard that there are BIG changes happening at Stampin' Up. They will be shaking up the colors this year with their new Catalog. Here are the specifics.

Today SU! announced we are getting a new Color renovation.
The offical new Color families will be launched in July 2010 with the new catalog.
4 new Color Collections (with 10 colors per collection )
which include 5 new colors :

Marina Mist , Daffodil Delight, Cherry Cobbler, Cajun Craze, early Expresso

and 10 returning colors which were IN COLORS AT ONE TIME:

Tangerine Tango , River Rock , Riding hood red , Wild Wasabi, Baja Breeze , Pink Pirouette, Pacific Point, Melon Mambo, Soft Suede and Rich Razzleberry .

Here is a break down of this renovation:

so if you already purchased the (10) past & current "In colors" and the current (25) core colors that will be transfered Then there will be (10) brand new colors that will be offered to us to add to our ink pad collection.

SU! also announced that the brand new 5 In colors will be current for (2) years instead of (1) year with each new catalog .

I know this is a HUGE change But 1 Thing I know is Stampin'Up! didn't make this change without years of planning and market research.

I was told that Stampin' Up's original colors(which are most of them) are 20 years old..........I guess it really is time for a change huh?

Don't let these changes get to you.  When you look closely at the colors I think you're going to be excited about the changes ahead.  This gives you a few months to get used to the idea.

Thanks for stopping by.  Bless You.
