After introducing all the colors that have joined Stampin’ Up!’s color family this year I am now going into more details about each one. I am starting with the new 2023-2025 In Colors. Last week I talked about Copper Clay. This week is all about Wild Wheat.
Wild Wheat is a hard color to describe. Is it yellow? Is it brown? I guess I would describe it as a golden brown with a little bit of a greenish hue to it. If you look at the photo above, you can see how I came up with this description. I will admit it’s not my favorite color, but I haven’t actually used it on a project yet. Once I do, I’m sure I will like it a bit better.
This next photo compares Wild Wheat to many of Stampin’ Up!’s other colors. These are the combinations that I liked the best. As you can see, I don’t have it paired with a lot of colors. It did not look good with any of the greens that had a lot of yellow in them and I didn’t like it with any of the pinks either. I like it with the deeper, richer colors.
Bringing a third color into a combination makes a big difference. Check out these 3-color combinations that Stampin’ Up! uses in their Color Coach. Most of the colors in these combinations are ones that I didn’t care for with Wild Wheat but I do like these combinations. I love seeing the color combinations that Stampin’ Up! shares with us on samples, in their designer paper or the Color Coach because most of them are combinations I would never come up with on my own
What do you think of Wild Wheat? Is it a must have favorite? Leave me a comment below and let me know! Have a great day! Take care and Happy Stamping!
