APRIL STAMPIN' NEWS!

Hello friends! Here is the latest news from the Stampin' Up! world.



COLOR RENOVATION!

Stampin' Up! announced this week that there will be a color renovation to the product line. The renovation is a move toward a more usable and trendy color palette. There are 31 colors retiring and several old "In Colors" returning as core colors. Several of my favorites are returning! Wild Wasabi, Baja Breeze and River Rock particularly. Melon Mambo and Rich Razzleberry will also be staying on as core colors! YAY! I didn't want to give those up. There are also 5 new colors to the collection and an additional 5 "In Colors" will be announced in July! I have already seen some beautiful projects with our new colors and I LOVE THEM! I can't wait until July to do some projects with you! Here are the new collections:


Color Renovation 2010

Did you see the new colors? Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso, Cajun Craze, Cherry Cobbler and Marina Mist! I already know Marina Mist and Daffodil Delight are going to be huge favorites of mine. And I know I'll be using tons of Cajun Craze and Cherry Cobbler this fall. I've attached the flyers with the lists of returning, retiring and new colors in case you'd like to print them off. The most important thing to know is that the retiring colors are only guaranteed through May. After that, they are only available while supplies last. Here are the retiring colors:

Fond Farewell

I am sad to see some of these go. Brocade Blue, Creamy Caramel, Really Rust, Mellow Moss .... Oh! How I will miss them! If there are colors that you love ... be sure to order them soon before they are gone! I'll also be having a Retirement Sale in July where I will be selling my existing stock of retiring inks, cardstock, designer papers, accessories and STAMPS! The list of retiring stamps and accessories will be available June 1st and I will forward them off to you then.
