SU Stamps to Match Punches
 
Is there a list of SU stamps that match their punches? I did a search in General Forum but came up with nothing. Thanks

In the NEW! 2010-2011 Idea Book and Catalog, the stamp images are outlined in red to denote that they coordinate with a punch in the catalog. Great idea on SU's part.

I think they are outlined in different colors. I started to notice that some that went with punches were not in red but other colors...I can't figure out their system!

Thanks for sharing the link for the older punches, Tina.

Alli, what colors are you talking about?

Doesn't really appear to be one. Sometimes the outline is a light green, sometimes red, sometimes a darker blueish-green, and those were just the ones I saw. Unfortunately, with the darker outlined ones, it's sometimes hard to tell if it's an outline to show it has a coordinating punch or if it's part of the design on the stamp. They should have stuck with a red outline on everything since it stands out the most and isn't as easily confused with the catalog printing ink. But that doesn't totally solve the problem either since SU chooses to use several different colors to show the stamps (like the Build-a-bear pages are shown in red!) They need to stick with one stamp printed color and one outline color if that's the way they're going to show them. For older eyes, somtimes making out those subtle differences in the printing isn't so easy when the colors are so close.

To me it looks like the color of the outline coordinates with the color theme of that page. I agree they should have stuck with one color. Just my $0.02.

Just got off the phone with Demonstrator Support as I was curious once someone pointed it out. They said there is no reason for the difference in colors.
