2023 Stampin' Up! Colour Refresh Coming Soon / Retiring Products

Stampin' Up! Colour Refresh

Stampin' Up! colour is about to get a shake up with a colour refresh coming soon! 

We don't know what the new colours are yet, and which ones are retiring, but all of that information will be announced on March 30th in Australia.  I'll be letting my subscribers and posting here as soon as we know, so make sure to Subscribe to my email news, or follow my blog posts by email (sign up in the sidebar) to keep up with all the news. 

Stampin' Up! are all about staying relevant and setting trends, plus filling in any gaps our current offering might have. We always introduce 5 new InColors each year, and they stay around for 2 years. This colour refresh goes beyond that though and will retire some of the core colours too and bring in new ones (some completely new, some are bringing back favourite InColors from past years). I can't wait to see! The last time we had a colour refresh was 2018, so it will be fun to have more new colours to play with. 

If you are interested in learning all about some great Stampin' Up! colour comparisons and colour combinations, I have a Pinterest board with over 700 pins to give you lots of ideas. This is where I will also be posting combinations, comparisons and colour samples with the new 2023 colours, so it's a great one to follow.

Stampin' Up! Retiring Product Lists 2023

On the same day the new colours are announced, we will be announcing the Stampin' Up! retiring products from both the 2022/23 Annual Catalogue and the 2023 January to April Mini Catalogue. Both of these catalogues will be ending at the end of April, and the new 2023/24 Annual Catalogue will be available to purchase from early May. Subscribe to stay in the loop and receive emails with the lists attached.

Introducing NEW Stampin' Up! 2022 InColor Starry Sky with the new Bottled Happiness stamp set

Hello friends, it's time to explore the last of our new 2022 InColors, which are now just a week away with the launch of the 2022 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue on May 3rd.

Today's final colour is Starry Sky, a lovely mid to deep blue with a purple undertone. Here's how it looks with some of the other Stampin' Up! current colours. 

For my card today, I have used one of the Tea Boutique note cards (these come in each of the 5 new InColors) together with the new Bottled Happiness stamp set. Both of these products are available in the new Annual Catalogue commencing on May 3rd.

I really love how this colour combination of Starry Sky, Sweet Sorbet, Old Olive and Basic White came together.

The Bottled Happiness stamp set is fun to stamp with! The flower and leaf sections come as two separate photopolymer stamps, so they are easy to line up. The bottle is also in two parts. For the solid piece, I stamped off once with the Starry Sky ink, and for the outline section I stamped at full strength. I also added some clear Wink of Stella to the bottle to give it a bit of shimmer. There is also a coordinating bottle punch for this stamp set (and there is a 10% discount if you bundle them together).

The polka dot Sweet Sorbet paper that is tucked under the left side of the card comes from the 2022-2024 InColor DSP pack that will be available next week. The sentiment is from the Bottled Happiness stamp set and is stamped in Starry Sky. It's cut out with a really versatile new die set called Stylish Shapes.

I hope you like today's card and the new Starry Sky InColor! I'm looking forward to playing with this one some more. 

You will be able to purchase these products from me from next Tuesday, January 3rd, You can either order direct with me via email, phone or text (you can read about three ways to shop with me HERE).  When you shop online with me in Australia, and use the monthly Host Code, you also qualify for a small thank you gift mid the month after your purchase.

Introducing NEW Stampin' Up! 2022 InColor Parakeet Party

Hello friends. Today we are looking at another new InColor, Parakeet Party. This one is a bright yellow green which is fun to play with!

Here's how it looks with some of the other current Stampin' Up! colours. 

I have made a bright and happy 'Just for You' card to showcase this colour. I have used the current Brilliant Wings Dies (also in a bundle with Butterfly Brilliance stamp set) to create the layered butterflies. I really like the softness of Soft Sea Foam with Parakeet Party.

The Designer Series Paper I have used is Tea Boutique, a 6x6" pack which will be available on May 3rd. I have also used some of the 2022-24 InColor Assortment DSP (this one is Orchid Oasis) under my sentiment label. My sentiment is from the current set Celebrating You (in the 2022 January to June Mini Catalogue and carrying over to the new catalogue).

Another 'coming soon' product I have used is the 2022-2024 InColor Matte Decorative Dots. I will be using these a lot. You can also see I have used the Stylish Shapes Dies (also coming on May 3rd) again. Love these banner shapes which are quick and easy to cut using the Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine.

 

Here's a look at my colour combination for this card.

I had a Soft Sea Foam butterfly left over, so I made another quick note card using another sheet of the Tea Boutique DSP. I love the simple monochromatic look of this card. I think I will use it as a simple 'hello' note card, and I didn't feel it needed a sentiment.

If you love the new papers and/or new InColors, there's still time to register for either my 2022 InColor Club (where you get the new InColors one color a month for 5 months - registration open until May 8th), or the Annual Catalogue Product Shares (I have ribbon, DSP or Speciality Paper shares available and the signup closes May 2nd).

Introducing NEW Stampin' Up! Sweet Sorbet InColor & Cup of Tea Bundle

Hello friends. I hope you are having a lovely Easter. I have been blessed with some lovely family time, both with my own little family and a trip from my sister from interstate for 10 days. It was her first visit back to Melbourne since before the pandemic, and it was so lovely to spend time with her. 

We are getting closer to the new 2022 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue launch date for customers (May 3rd) so I thought I would start to give you a closer look at some of the new colours with some product sneak peeks. Today I wanted to showcase Sweet Sorbet, a bright Strawberry Red. Here's how it looks against some of our current colours.

To showcase Sweet Sorbet, I have used the new Tea Boutique bundle, along with Tea Boutique 6x6" paper pack and note cards with envelopes. These products will all be available on May 3rd.

You might also spot a stitched circle die in there too. This is part of a new die set called Stitched Shapes, which will be available on May 3rd.

I like how Sweet Sorbet looks with Starry Sky (the die cut circle) and Petal Pink (the flowers on the left).

If you are interested in colour combinations and the new Stampin' Up! 2022 InColors, check out my 2022 InColor club where you can spread the cost of all of your InColor products over 5 months, plus get freebies and a free monthly class for those 5 months. Get all the details HERE.

Colour Creations Week 41 Sahara Sand with Stampin Up Cactus Cuties Bundle

Hey friends, welcome to another week of Colour Creations blog hop by the Art with Heart Team. This week we are playing with Sahara Sand.

My card is a super quick and easy one this week, as I was running a bit late to get it created and up on my blog. I had the colour scheme and products in my head though, so it was pretty quick to get it done. I have used the cactus Cuties punch bundle from the 2022 Stampin' Up! January to June Mini Catalogue.

I have used Shimmery White for my background and have embossed the front layer with the Painted Texture embossing folder (I used my blending brushes to add dome Sahara Sand ink in the centre before I embossed). The pot is stamped in Sahara Sand, the cactus in Mint Macaron and the flowers in Polished Pink.

Here's a closer look at my colour combination.

 

The Cactus Cuties punch bundle made cutting out some of the bits for this card super easy. Punch bundles are so quick and easy and I love how reasonably priced they are!

Now it's time to see what the rest of the Art with Heart team girls have done with Sahara Sand. Next up, we have the lovely Christine Blain.

If you get lost along the way, head over to Cathy Proctor's blog as she has the full list of participants on there.

Thanks for checking in today with the Art with Heart Team. See you back here again soon.
