Stampin' Up! Announces Color Renovation!!!

Some time ago, Stampin' Up! made an announcement that some of the past In Colors may be brought back at some point in the future but I didn't imagine that they would be doing a total revamping of the color families!  Well, today they announced that, beginning July 1, there will be only four color collections:

Brights Collection 

Neutrals Collection             

Regals Collection         

Subtles Collection

Each color collection will have 10 colors in it which you can see below.  There will be 5 new In Colors beginning in July but instead of only being around one year, they will be around for two years.  In July of 2011, Stampin' Up! will add 5 more In Colors which means there will be 10 In Colors which retire in two year increments.

Five New Colors will be added to the collections:  Daffodil Delight, Cajun Craze, Early Espresso, Cherry Cobbler and Marina Mist.

Returning In Colors which will be added to the collections:  Melon Mambo, Pacific Point, Tangerine Tango, River Rock, Soft Suede, Riding Hood Red, Rich Razzleberry, Wild Wasabi, Pink Pirouette and Baja Breeze.

Colors that are saying "goodbye" are:  Pink Passion, Pixie Pink, Pale Plum, Orchid Opulence, Lovely Lilac, Lavender Lace, Almost Amethyst, Bordering Blue, Brocade Blue, Ballet Blue, Brilliant Blue, Taken with Teal, Glorious Green, Handsome Hunter, Sage Shadow, Mellow Moss, Green Galore, Gable Green, Barely Banana, YoYo Yellow, Summer Sun, Apricot Appeal, Only Orange, Really Rust, Ruby Red, Cameo Coral, Blush Blossom, Creamy Caramel, Close to Cocoa and Going Gray.

I will miss some of these colors but really look forward to the new collections.  I hope you do too!  They have announced that they will be offering special bundles to supplement your current collections.  The actual kits and pricing will be available in July.  Contact me if you have any questions!
