It's a Color Revolution!

You have probably heard by now!!  I'm just a little slow.  Stampin' Up! is calling it a Color Renovation - - whatever you want to call it - I'm excited!!

Stampin' Up! is releasing 5 BRAND NEW COLORS and bringing back 10 of the retired In Colors!! On July 1st, with the release of the new Idea Book & Catalog, this will be how our color collections will look!!

5 NEW COLORS on the chart above are:

10 returning IN COLORS on the chart above are:

Baja Breeze, Melon Mambo, Pink Pirouette, Rich Razzleberry, Riding Hood Red, River Rock, Soft Suede, Tangerine Tango and Wild Wasabi

As with all new things, sometimes we have to get rid of the old to make room for the new. So these are the colors we will bid a Fond Farewell to. Some will be missed, but - really - you know, some will certainly not.

Current colors that will retire in June are:

Glorious Green, Green Galore, Gable Green, Yoyo Yellow, Only Orange, Pink Passion, Pixie Pink, Orchid Opulence, Lovely Lilac, Brilliant Blue, Close to Cocoa, Creamy Caramel, Really Rust, Ruby Red, Cameo Coral, Summer Sun, Bordering Blue, Brocade Blue, Ballet Blue, Taken with Teal, Handsome Hunter, Pale Plum, Blush Blossom (the marker will still be available), Apricot Appeal, Barely Banana, Mellow Moss, Sage Shadow, Almost Amethyst, Lavender Lace, Basic Brown, Going Gray.

A Little Faux Suede. . .

And the last of the Shoebox Swaps from my downline girls. . .

We have a contest each time we get together and vote amongst ourselves - (you are not suppose to vote for your own card.)  AND - Briena won 2nd Place with her card!  Congratulations Briena!

I do not have the recipe or link to the sample she used as inspiration, sorry about that.

I will try to guess on "how she did it" - just to give you an idea.

So . . . here's Briena's swap.

Here's (my guess) on how she did it:

Stamp Set: Three Little Words

Cardstock: Whisper White, Taken with Teal, Sweet Pea DSP

Accessories: Taken with Teal Stampin Pad, Old Olive 5/8" Grosgrain Ribbon, Scallop Circle Punch, Modern Label Punch, Crimper, Sticky Pages, Only Orange Bead Duo, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

Little One Swap

A few of my downline girls went to the Shoebox Swap as well. . .

So, I thought I'd share the photos of their cards over the next few days.

I do not have recipes or links to the samples they used as inspiration, sorry about that.

I will try to guess on "how they did it" - just to give you an idea.

So . . . here's Lynda's swap.



Here's (my guess) on how she did it:
Stamp Set: Nursery Necessities, Pumpkin Patch (not current - sorry about that!)
Cardstock: Whisper White, Certainly Celery, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery DSP
Accessories: Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery Stampin Pad, Bashful Blue 1/2" Striped Grosgrain Ribbon, Silver Brads, Word Window Punch, Modern Label Punch, Big Shot, Backgrounds 1 Texturz Plates, Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive
