You're currently viewing Splitcoaststampers as a GUEST. We pride ourselves on being great hosts, but guests have limited access to some of our incredible artwork, our lively forums and other super cool features of the site! You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
Demos can preorder on the 24th. There are several demos who expedite their orders so I think you will see the new colors and a few new stamp sets in the gallery by the 25th.
I'm happy about the light green one! Can't wait to see them. I'm sooooo happy that Pool Party and Island Indigo are staying! Those are two of my favorites.

I'll be over-nighting....I usually take time off and stamp then but can't take those days off. BUT it's close to the weekend so I'll be posting as soon as I get a chance! It's so exciting! I'm loving everything I've seen so far! Eeeek!
Is it possible that the new colours are in some hands already? I see a beautiful minty freen card on pinterest this morning and wonder if it is the new shade of green. when I tried to go to the source, it is Stampin Connection and you have to be a member...
Checked out the new colors list. Not sure how I feel about them. Guess I'll have to see them BUT something the color of a cardboard box? Kind of sounds like Creamy Caramel.

I believe that's pool party. It's the same as the SAB ribbon that's on there. The only people who may have the new colors are the Artisan team but other than that no one else.

I'm hoping it will be closer to close to cocoa, never been a fan of creamy caramel.
I hung on to Close to Cocoa ink and paper, although I haven't used them much in the last couple of years-now with the new Baked Brown Sugar maybe I can substitute it-it's also nice for distressing. I have a few sheets of Creamy Caramel cs and I haven't found anything close. I've used it for animal and food punch art, tree and wood backgrounds, etc.
I looked at the listing on the blog linked in the first post, and I would have to say that, after having seen the colors, that I don't agree with the comparisons she made.
Mindy is right...it won't be long until you start seeing samples come up online. I have to admit that the colors are just gorgeous...but they played right into a great color scheme for me this year. Last year, well, not so much.

So you've actually seen the colors? I was hoping her descriptions were close, because they sound gorgeous. I was in Kohl's yesterday and saw a jewelry display that had these chunky necklaces in a tan color, a mint green, and one in a peachy/coral color. It made me think of the descriptions I'd read here, and I thought what an incredible color combo that would be.
I also agree about last year's in colors, not so great. I only got Raspberry Ripple and Primrose Petals. I can't stand Starfruit, and Midnight Muse and Gumball Green are okay colors but they're just so close to other colors. And I just don't think they look good with a lot of other colors either. So I'm really hoping for better news this time around.

The 2013-2015 In Color card stock, ribbon and large dahlia like buttons were on display at the SU Baltimore Regionals today!!! Colors were beautiful and the ribbon very very pretty! Wait till you see!
I always buy a set of the markers when the new in-colors come out. That way I have every color even if I don't love them all. Then I get an ink pad or two, based on if I like them. I have rich razzleberry, melon mambo, crushed curry, dusty durango, bermuda bay and soft suede, from when they were in colors in the 2009-10 catalog. I have peach parfait, poppy parade, pear pizzazz and concord crush from the 2011 catalog. I have calypso coral, lucky limeade, and island indigo from 2012. And from the current catalog I have raspberry ripple, midnight muse, and gumball green. Like I said, I don't always buy the ink pads, but I always buy a set of the markers. Now that Pool Party is a regular, I will probably buy the ink pad.

Same here and I also get the variety pack of cardstock. I tossed my Crushed Curry marker and 4 sheets of cs 3 years ago since I wasn't that thrilled with it and never used any of it. But from now on I'll keep any InColor stuff, since they are the only retired colors that make a comeback.
I LOVE last year's new In Colors and I use them a lot I think I like this year's In Colors a bit more, they are soooo pretty and soft. The will go so well with all the other colors.
SO happy to see Crushed Curry come back! That is one of my favorite yellows, and I use it all the time. Sad to see River Rock, Baja Breeze, and Riding Hood Red leaving. The mint and peach combo has been big this spring, so I'm not surprised to see a new mint being introduced. Color refresh is always so exciting!
I always get the in colors. If nothing more, it challenges me to use different colors. I scrapbook as well so it keeps my scrapbooks from looking all the same. I will get the cardstock- ink pads, and markers!!!
My demo told me a bit about the green; mind you it was from what she saw on her computer screen. If you look at pages 200 and 201 in the current catalogue (Canadian one anyway), you will see a pale green background to the hostess info. The new Pistachio is much like that. Not quite mint, but a nice pale green.
I was happy for that tidbit of info and am glad to pass it along.
I would like to know about the Wildflower Meadow Backgroup stamp. I am hoping it is BEAUTIFUL!
Yes, I got my first order as did my Upline. She got the Wildflower Meadow stamp and it is stunning. The colors are so much more luscious in person!!
I'm making new color bookmarks today and going to play with the clay molds tomorrow.
I'm saving up for a bigger order on the 31 when we can order from the entire catalog. There are some stamp sets, framelits, and ribbon with my name written all over them!
I don't know if all demos do this but mine does and I love it...She makes a bookmark with the new In Colors stamped on it so that you can see what they look like in person. I do love these new ones better than the last bunch and will likely end up getting the ink & paper bundle.

I have to say, I wasn't thrilled with the colors when I first saw them. They are on the light side for me but......after putting them on my preorder......I am in LOVE!!! They are totally out of my comfort zone but so pretty! Baked Brown Sugar is my new fave!!! So much....that I need to order another pack already!!!!

I totally agree with you, and they all work so well together. This is gonna be a good stampin' year for sure.

I like seeing what everyone's favorites are! I want to MARRY coastal cabana! I LOVE it! Can't stop using it! It's soooo pretty in person. It kind of reminds me of Tiffany blue. I thought I'd like pistachio the best but I actually love the other ones more than it!!!! Baked brown sugar is pretty too and it's kind of nice to have something to use in place of crumb cake which I feel I overuse sometimes!
I like last year's colors but I really liked the pool party group and this is probably my favorite group so far.....but I think I've said that almost every year since they started, lol! But these really are the best to me! I can't wait until everyone can see them in person!!!!
