Prismacolor Pencil matches to the NEW SU! colors

[fionna51]

I have worked over my color charts for matching the Prismacolor pencils to your SU! papers...so that they are up to date with the new color combinations.

In addition...

This chart does not have the matches for the new core colors or for the In Colors that come out in July. I will update when they come out.

For the old thread, and the old colors see this thread:
SU! colors matched to Prismacolor--New Listing: Lists and Charts - Splitcoaststampers

Attached below is the chart I finished today for the New Color Combinations. (Edited to include 2014-2016 In Colors)

[fionna51]

Info on some of the color combinations in the above chart::

If you see two colors in one box, it is to be used like this...
Color the first color lightly and evenly in the box. Then color the second, also lightly and evenly, on top of it. Then take the first color and, using little circle motions, color the first color over the top to blend. You might need to adjust your proportions a bit but that is trial and error for each one of us!

Also, there are a few colors that always need to be colored with a very light touch...like Pink Pirouette and Crumb Cake.

Diane, this is great! Thanks for starting the new thread for the new colors!

[nottoocreative]

very cool! Thank you for listing the 2-layer colors, so you don't buy a listed "match" only to find that it doesn't really match You're very sweet to do this work and share it!

[Serenity_Stamper]

[jellychick]

cool thanks...

Diane, you are so awesome! I'm going to be bugging you in about a week or so for all of the charts that you've done, really 3-4, because everything is changing over and I rely on a specific few and they're almost impossible to find with the updates.

Congrats on your new spot on the CAS DT. You definitely deserved it and I'm so glad you won.

Wow Diane - thanks for the work youhave done on this and the updates - printing it off so I can put color to paper!

[Stamper for fun]

Thank you, Diane.

[snowcountry311]

[cvansluys]

Thanks so much for your work.....you are such a peach!

[The Purple Alpaca]

Thank you so much for the list! I'm teaching Black Magic and nothing works as good as prismacolor pencils

[it'smefaith]

Thank You so much for all your time and work to make and update your charts... I came here tonight to look for something like this after seeing the Wednesday Tutorial on using the Prismacolor Pencils...

Thank you,
Faith

[kimmiller]

Diane, Thanks for all your hard work on this chart! I came looking to update my pencils and I knew I could count on one of my fabulous SCS friends to have done the work for me! Thanks for sharing with us!

[rholzman]

I love it! Thank You!

[Serenity_Stamper]

Does this work for Prismacolor watercolor pencils also, does anyone know for sure? Thanks

[Nawnee07]

Has anyone matched the new 2011-2013 In Colors Yet? I would appreciate the help. Thank You

[fionna51]

I haven't gotten my colors yet. In the past I have made estimates because I have gotten sheets of paper from my demo early, but haven't yet this year. I'll get them added to the file in the first post as soon as I get a match. Promise!

[Serenity_Stamper]

Diane, if you PM me your addy I can send you a quarter sheet of each of the new incolors - if that would be of service? Blessings, thanks for all you do, Lela

[Debra Hogg]

subbing for the new in-colours.....Thanks

[Sassy's Sal]

I have not used Prisma pencils before. What do you like about them?

[disstamps]

Diane, just found this chart today and LOVE it! Thank you so much for sharing this. I've tried to match the colors before but didn't do too well...... This is exactly what I wanted/needed!

[fionna51]

I feel badly that I didn't follow this thread closely. I would have contacted Lela and gotten samples or I would have been quicker at checking my paper when I did get it. Here's what I am using for the new in colors:

Calypso coral: 922 Poppy Red
Lucky Limeade: 1005 Limepeel
Pool Party: 1016 Deco Aqua...but since that isn't available now, use 992 light aqua very lightly colored
Island Indigo: 1027 Peacock Blue
Wisteria Wonder: 1007 Imperial Violet

Now, since Prismacolor has re-released some of their colors (3 Deco colors...Yea!...and 3 Neon colors, as well as releasing 12 of the colors formerly in the lightfast line) I will be re-evaluating some of my colors on the chart. I don't really expect major changes, but some of the colors may get a bit closer match.

[sylviaf]

Thanks so much for posting the latest colour matches. I have been matching things myself but it's nice having some else's opinion. Your complete matching list has been really really helpful.

[Njoilif]

Hats off to Ms. Fionna for sharing this wonderful tool with all of us. I will finally put to better use my PrismaColor pencils.

[MaryCrafter]

Thank you so much for such a wonderful resource.

[Nawnee07]

Thank You! Thank You! Diane this is such a valuable tool for us. Thank you so much for sharing your hard work!

[fionna51]

Here's the new 2012-2014 In Colors...at least what I am using right now.

Primrose Petals 929 Pink
...I am so SO happy that this is an almost dead-ringer for Rose Romance!!! just a tad darker!
Raspberry Ripple 925 Crimson Lake
Summer Starfruit 1098 Artichoke
Gumball Green 911 Olive Green
Midnight Muse 901 Indigo Blue

[acordmar]

God bless!

[MaryR917]

[pandacats]

thank you for this great resource. I use prismacolor pencils all the time, this is great info for me.

[ruok72]

This is a really handy chart to have!

[muscrat]

Has anyone updated this for 2014-2016? Thanks!

[fionna51]

Here is the updated PDF for the current colors. I see that I no longer have the Edit button for my original post. Bummer. I prefer seeing the files in the first post of the thread. I may have to start posting a new thread every year. Double bummer!

[btalem]

Yeah! That was the last bit of information needed to complete my chart!!!!!

THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!!!

Amy

[disstamps]
