Brocade Bkgnd paper-which inks coordinate?

[tablescrapz]

Hoping someone who has received their catalog/order of Brocade Background Designer Paper can help me....which SU inks coordinate with this paper?

I'm thinking the Elegant Eggplant and Chocolate Chip will but I don't know which green would work. Old Olive?? Always Artichoke?? Certainly Celery?? Mellow Moss?? I'm assuming the new River Rock will.

I don't have the newest catalog yet, only the Fall/Winter Preview. In the past I have ordered based on the pictures in the catalog and I've been off on my ink choice....so anyone that can help me I'd greatly appreciate your effort.

Thanks in advance!

Do you have a Color Coach? If not, you definitely need one! According to the Color Coach, Old Olive is the green coordinating color. Also, Pumpkin Pie, Choc Chip and More Mustard.

Thank you! I have color wheels but everytime I pass on the SU Color Coach when making my order. I guess that just sold it for me and will be on my wish list.

I have both SU and CMTH inks and don't like to duplicate when colors are 'close enough', as well as all the other brands out there.

Once again, THANKS!

I always put off buying the Color Coach because there were things I actually "wanted" but once I bit the bullet and paid the $10 I have never regretted it. Good luck with your stamping!

I don't have the new DP (or the new catty...grrr...but I would assume the green will be Wild Wasabi, one of the new "in colors".

The color coach has brocade blue matched with old olive, pumpkin pie, chocolate brown and more mustard or

mellow moss, so saffron, regal rose, and pale plum or

sage shadow, bravo burgandy, creamy caramel, pretty in pink or

pixie pink, orchid opulence, certainly celery, green galore or

pink passion, lavender lace, green galore and green gable or

old olive, close to cocoa, more mustard, not quite navy


Hope this helps.

They list the colors in the SU demo manual but we will have to wait for it to be updated in July before we know the "official colors" used in these papers. I don't actually have them yet but you could ask your demo.
