NEW Complete Color Revamp Coming In June! 

Every few years, Stampin' Up! likes to review our current color collections to see what is selling, what's not, and how they measure up with trends in fashion and home décor. Back in 2013, they did a "color refresh" with just a few changes to the lineup.  This year, Stampin' Up! is having a complete "color revamp" to bring our collections up-to-date!  They're retiring some old and slow-selling colors, bringing back some returning In Color favorites and adding some completely new colors for a whole new spectrum of colors!  Here's the breakdown…

  • Keeping 27 Current Colors
  • Retiring 13 Colors
  • Introducing 10 NEW Colors
  • Bringing Back 6 Returning In Colors

On May 31, 2018, 13 colors are Retiring:

  • Always Artichoke
  • Chocolate Chip
  • Elegant Eggplant

New ink pads

NEW & Improved Ink Pad Case Coming! 

You'll notice that every color of ink pad is on the Retired List and that's because we're getting a brand new style of ink pad!  Woohoo!

  • Easier & less confusing to open!
  • Tighter lid, so it won't pop off!
  • Streamlined cases are stackable for compact storage & transport!
  • Stickers for the inside of the pad, so you can easily identify colors while stamping!
  • Defoaming agent added into the ink formula for better ink transfer!

You May Be Wondering:

  • You can use the current Classic refill inks and new Classic refill inks interchangeably, even though the formula has been updated.
  • Basic Black & Basic Gray Archival inks will no longer be available.  Basic Gray will now be available in the Classic ink formula.  You can use either Memento Tuxedo Black or StazOn Jet Black for your Basic Black ink.
  • The new ink pads are slightly smaller, so while they will fit in the Color Caddy, they may slide out easily.  A new Color Caddy is in the works.

  1. I know, Pat! Always Artichoke was a great color for Christmas, especially for a vintage look. Hopefully, you can substitute Mossy Meadow with Cherry Cobbler or Real Red for a similar, updated color combo.
