Where can you get paint chips that don't have the name of the color on the front? Or do you just cut that part off? And should I just bring some SU cardstock with me to see which colors coordinate best?
Frequently, Mr Clean erasers will take the name off. They leave a little shiny spot - you may want to rub the eraser over the whole thing to eliminate the one spot showing.
You can also stick your mini catalog in your purse (I frequently have it, and all sorts of other .... well, stuff, in there), and there are small rectangles of all the colors on the last page if it.
I just leave the information on the paint chip; adds a bit of interest I think. If they are too wide for what I want, then I'll cut off the number and name.
I won on ebay a sample of all of SU card stock because it doesn't take long to realize that the little samples in the catalogs and on the color wheel are not a perfect match to the original color, anyways, they tell all the goodies about the color, as a new demonstrator I find this very helpful but it only cost me 7.00 and it is all attached to a keychain like thing. I love it and feel it is the best money I have spent. The reason I mentioned this is then you would have true colors and they would fit easily in your purse.
I Found some at Lowes. Although , last time I was in the paint chip isle, I helped myself! Think I will need to wear a hat and sunglasses if I plan to return soon.
