Default I am looking for samples of paper and ink colors from any ctmh demo.

I have asked a demo several times if she could send me some paper samples of all of the paper solid paper to be exact.just a small scrap piece of paper with the name of the color written on it for me.and same with a piece of paper for of all of the ink colors including the neutral colors too..and the name written next to it.So I can compare them to SU.then all of the colors I like I plan on ordering them.Colors That su doesn't come close in matching up to.It's hard to see the actually colors in the magazine I would much rather see a close up piece of paper to compare side by side.

If any demo is willing to send me some samples of this can you please p.m. me so I can send you my address.I will pay for the shipping.to have these send out to me.I really like some of the colors and want to order some but For some reason she keeps telling me she is going to send them and then I never hear from her or she tells me she hasn't gotten around to it.So if you don't mind doing this please contact me thanks.I would be very greatful.

That sounds like a lot of work for someone to go to. Maybe that's why she hasn't sent it yet. Is there a demo near you that you could go visit?

It does sound like a lot of work, but it also sounds like a good sale opportunity! If I was a demo, I would do it for sure.

I think you should pay for something like that. I see the catalog as a sales tool, which a demo would give you if you book a party. But you are asking for something that requires time and money to produce with no guarantee of anything in return. Check on ebay for a CTMH sample, I've seen SU samples offered there.

Yah I guess I can try ebay.I just figured if anyone has left over scraps in a scrap pile.once they cut paper up.sometimes demos save the scrap for later use.I don't need a huge sheet just a small sample like a tag size sample.

Consultants can order a "color wheel" which is a square of cs of each of the 60 colors on a chain ring, it's $4 plus shipping, plus shipping to you. PM or e-mail me if you're interested. I can't help you w/ ink though, I just started and only have a few, but the ink colors are almost exact to the cs colors.

Like I said we call it a "color wheel" but I doubt you'll find one on e-bay, it's not something we sell directly to customers, it's a consultant only order item.

You probably need to be willing to pay for her time and paper cost. That's quite a job. I did it for myself, from my own stock. It took quite a while. Think about what it would cost to buy 60 sheets of cardstock and cut it into 3x3 squares. You're assuming that she happens to have scraps from all 60 colors laying around.

Keep an eye on e-bay. I've seen them there before. They will probably show up again.

I'm not asking anyone to buy any paper.I'm talking about scraps that are sitting around in a pile that have been cut up already.a 2x2 square is fine.AND YES i ALREADY SAID THAT I WOULD PAY.FOR IT.

i DID IT WITH MY su PAPER AND IT DIDN'T TAKE THAT LONG.The ink stamped on paper wasn't all that bad either.If I was a demo I wouldn't have aproblem doing this for someone else if I thought it would help them out and get an order from them.which is what I plan to do.

Lisa,
I think the problem you may be running in as far as the ink is that the majority of us do not have all 60 colors of ink. I put together a swap for my team of girls so that they'll have every one, and even with the size of my team, a couple of girls ended up buying colors to just fill out the swap. I have the RGB codes of our colors, so, if you want to email me at [email protected], I'd be happy to send them to you. I just tried to copy and paste them here, but, for some reason SCS is telling me there are smilies or tags in the list (which I can see nothing of), so, I can't post it. Maybe you can print them out and have a pretty good idea of the colors. Hope this helps some.
