Stampin' Up! ... Color Renovation !!

Wow, we received big news yesterday. Stampin' Up! is doing a color renovation that will begin with the new 2010-2011 Idea Book & Catalog (July 1).

* 5 new colors
* 10 previously retired returning In Colors (yaay!)
* 30 current colors retiring
* 5 new In Colors
* In Colors will now have an availability lifespan of 2 years. Beginning with the 2010-2011 catalog, we'll bring in 5 new colors. 2011-2012 will bring 5 more. After the 2010-2011 catalog, there will be 10 In Colors available each catalog.

Color Collections will now include: Brights, Neutrals, Regals and Subtles. There are 10 colors in each group. These 40 colors will be our "core colors".

New Colors in our Core Colors include: Daffodil Delight, Cajun Craze, Cherry Cobbler, Marina Mist, Early Espresso. There is also Crumb Cake which is a re-name for our Kraft but now it's available in ink and not just cardstock (yaaay!!).
