Discontinued: Regal Rose Pretty in Pink bashful Blue Certainly Celery Baja Breeze Riding Hood Red Bravo Burgundy Not Quite navy More Mustard River Rock Returning In Colors Bermuda Bay calypso Coral Wiseria Wonder Pear Pizazz Soft Sky Pool Party Blushing Bride Crushed Curry Island Indigo New Smoky Slate |
Last time this happened I CRIED and cried but I'm excited this time around! Happy to see some great colors back! And for once it's good I'm a hoarder...I think I have most of these squirreled away;-) I have to say I will miss baja a bit and more mustard. That one has me scratching my head just a bit because it's still a pretty hot color in the stores. But I'll get over it I suppose!
|
Thank you - I have some stocking up to do. But I am glad that Wisteria wonder, Pear Pizazz, Bermuda Bay and blushing bride are returning. Pity Concord Crush is not also returning.
|
Better do it fast...the retiring colors are only while supplies last and people will freak out and buy it all up :-P I will not do that....I will not do that......I'll keep chanting that.... :-)
|
Yes I know - it's mainly the 3 blues I am going to miss - especially Baja and Bashful. I don't remember soft sky and I don't really like Pool Party.
|
Pool party and soft sky are kind of similar but people have asked for soft sky forever! I think it's very pretty. It is a soft light blue. Hope you like it!!!!!
|
Oh no!! I love bashful blue for baby cards. I am a hoarder too and happy about the returning colors. I already have the paper and ink. Now I can feel free to use it cuz I can replace it LOL.

Does this mean we are not going to have any burgandy?

Oh gosh - that's going to be added to the list as well. Wonder if they are going to gives us a burgandy in this years in-colours?
|
I doubt it. That's not how the in colors work. They are trendy colors and burgandy isn't a very trendy color right now.
|
okey dokey - thanks for thats
|
I'm thinking that maybe they're considering Cherry Cobbler a deep enough red to stand in for burgundy...?
|
I have a little tear rolling down my cheek for pretty in pink. *sniff* *sniff*
I mean I use all the colors that are retiring (except bravo burgundy) but can live with their replacements. I may have half a tear flowing for more mustard....but I'm trying to get a handle on the fact that crushed curry will replace it nicely...even though....isn't it a bit brighter than mm? Oh pretty in pink! I WILL stock up on you this weekend!!!! :( *sob* *sob* |
Woohoo! I'm liking it! I'll be "fixing" my drawers that keep my paper and inks to match the new layout...probably tonight?!
I do love my Baja Breeze, though. |

the only color I will deeply miss is More Mustard. But I am sure to fall in love with the Curry too!
|
I agree with the More Mustard comments!! It's such a unique color, I love it! Baja Breeze was also a :( but I can live with the replacements.

So I have been afraid to use my Pear Pizzazz and Blushing Bride . I love those colors . But I broke down and used them to make Tri Fold Shutter Easter cards for family. Then stressed out and started searching ebay to find more of those colors. I am so happy that they are returning. Sad to loose Baja Breeze :( .
I am happy that with the exception of the new color I have all the returning colors. I will have to add another pack or too of Baja just so the three packs I already have do not get lonely. I hoard pretty colors. ;) |
It's funny, since the last color renovation two years ago, (or is it three?) I've had this big stack of retired colors I'm trying to use up. I've whittled it down quite abit, and just the other day I was patting myself on the back because I'd used up my last sheet of Soft Sky! And now it's back!
To be honest, I'm not too upset to see any of these go, I think they're replacing them with colors that are better. Except for the Mustard/Curry thing. While I'm not much of a golden yellow fan, I can handle Mustard. But Curry was one of my least liked colors that SU has ever come up with. And I will miss Bashful Blue. But I'm well stocked on the retired colors I like, and the only incoming colors I don't have are Soft Sky and Blushing Bride. Oh, and Crushed Curry, but I don't know if I'll be rushing out to get that one. So it looks like I'm set for this change. The only thing that bothers me is that I've now got a HUGE stack of retired colors again! |

I'm not stocking up though. I'm saving my money for new stuff:) |
Not Quite Navy?? That's a go-to color for me. Will have to get that.
|
Call me confused. Is this advance information on changes to the catalog in June?
|
Yes these will be the colors for the new catty. However the discontinued
colors are only available while supplies last.So if there is a color you love that is retiring get it now.They may run out before the current catalog ends. There will be a set of In Colors that are new also. Just do not know those yet. |

Thank you!
|
And it's been three years. They said back then we would be in for small changes every 3-5 years so here we are :-)
|
I read all this again. Stampin Up! is giving free shipping this weekend? I didn't see anything on their website about that. Maybe I missed it.
Thanks for all the news and updates. SCS is a great place with lots of kind people to share and help each other. You all are special people!!! I'm changing my name from Confused to Informed because of you! |
I STILL have 4 unopened packs of Riding Hood Red from the last time it was Discontinued ;)
Just Saying.....I was told....It will never come back........ :cool: Never Say Never Ever Ever Me still have 1st year incolors too!!! :roll: |

Yes free shipping April 6-8. No minimum amount to order to get free shipping.
Just posted on Demo web site today. |
I luv baja, will have to get that color! I have been wanting to go to the new style of pads anyway, so I will be ordering that one.
|
I"m going to miss More Mustard. It's the colour of the leaves in autumn here. I guess the leaves are going to be Crushed Curry now. :)
But I'm happy to get Bermuda Bay back! I still have the inkpad for that! (although I'll *need* to get the new foam one!) ;) |
I'm surprised no one has said anything about Certainly Celery. That's the one I am going to miss. I use it all the time. Is Pear Pizzazz a close match for it?
|
I love Certainly Celery and will miss it, too!
Also, I will miss More Mustard. It's been around a loooong time. |

I have everything but the soft sky ink, poo! I never got into the in colors back then. I'm getting my hands on it as soon as I can :-) |
I'm pretty excited about the changes and glad colors like Island Indigo are sticking around and love the colors they are bringing back! I'll admit I haven't used a lot of the colors they are retiring for a while except for River Rock. I got into a love affair with that color in the last 6 months and will be totally sad to see it go.
Now taking bets - which color will have the paper and ink refill sell out first? :) Hmm... I'll go with Baja Breeze! |
Can't believe they are switching out More Mustard for Crushed Curry.
Jusy saying. I really detested that colour as much as Yo Yo Yellow. Wish Barely Banana was making a comeback though. |
