Journey With Color: Most Recent Color Change

Today in our Journey With Color we finish up Stampin’ Up!’s history of color. Hasn’t it been fun seeing where the color collections began and how they got to where they are today?

The last and most recent color change that Stampin’ Up! had was in their 2018-2019 Annual Catalog.  If you know your Stampin’ Up! colors, you can see in the photo Stampin’ Up!’s current colors.  The only thing that this photo doesn’t show is that Stampin’ Up! added a new group called Basics.  This group consists of Whisper White (now Basic White), Very Vanilla and Basic Black.

Stampin’ Up!’s 2018-2019 Color Change

I’ve summarized the changes to each of the four color groups below.  You can compare it to the previous color groups here.

Neutrals:  Whisper White, Very Vanilla and Basic Black moved to Basics Group.  Chocolate Chip was retired.  Night of Navy was moved from the Regals group.  Merry Merlot and Mossy Meadow were added. 

Brights:  Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive were moved to the Regals group.  Tangerine Tango and Tempting Turquoise were retired, and Poppy Parade, Flirty Flamingo, Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green, Coastal Cabana and Gorgeous Grape were added.

Regals:  Rose Red, Always Artichoke, Island Indigo, Elegant Eggplant and Perfect Plum were retired.  Night of Navy moved to the Neutrals group.  Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive were added from the Brights Group.  Shade Spruce and Blackberry Bliss were added.

Subtles:  Pink Pirouette, Wild Wasabi, Soft Sky, Marina Mist and Wisteria Wonder were retired.  Petal Pink, Soft Seafoam, Mint Macaron, Balmy Blue and Highland Heather were added.

If you’ve been following this Journey With Color since the beginning, you will notice that many of the new colors that were added to Stampin’ Up!’s color collection were former In Colors.  It’s nice when some of your favorites make the cut!  😊

Color changes can be fun even though some of us don’t always do well with it.  I wonder when the next one will be?

Have a great day! Take care and Happy Stamping!
