Kimberly

terylz · 04-14-2005, 11:00 AM

WOW! This is news. Give me a minute, so I can take it all in

I thought you were a demo MamaK!

jkstieber · 04-14-2005, 11:07 AM

While I'm not totally thrilled about having to replace 4 of my ink colors that will be changed (forest, rose, burgandy and bliss blue) I'm SO excited that they'll have a sand color! I was just thinking the other day that SU really needs a color about half way between vanilla and creamy caramel, this sand sounds like that will do it.

I was just in the process of replacing my cheapo Michael's and Walmart cardstock with SU assorted packages. I already got EE and BB, and I was going to order RR and SS this month. Since these are the color families that appear to be changing the most, I really wonder now if I should hold off. I'm not a demo so I don't have the inside info on this but I really don't know what to do. I don't want to have paper that's outdated. Maybe I should just order individual packs of paper that won't be changing instead. Can't wait to see these new colors!

pblair38 · 04-14-2005, 11:08 AM

I think I might be excited about this except for a couple of things:

1.) I just signed up as a demo and I'm not totally familiar with the names of all the current colors and have been trying to learn them.

and

2.) I just sat down LAST NIGHT after a trip to Office Depot for sorters/carriers for all my paper, and filled out labels with all the colors/color families and sorted out all my paper. Now things have changed!! AAAACCCKKKK!!!! Sigh. Oh well, I was only up until midnight. No problem.

LOL!

mamakimberly · 04-14-2005, 11:09 AM

I wish, Michelle!! I am a faux-demo! I was a demo, but I had to go inactive

SU sent me a love letter saying "so long, be strong".

I am going inactive on purpose so it is less painful, but still..... sigh.... I miss my SS mag!!!!!!!!!! UGH!

I still teach stamp classes though!

Soooo, who is squeakyleaky? Why only 2 posts? Hmmm, methinks me smelleth a rat!

Kimberly

luv2stmp4evr · 04-14-2005, 11:12 AM

Wow! This is too cool. I'm glad I'm still in the process of getting all of the stamp pads.

kalela · 04-14-2005, 11:14 AM

I just checked the SU! website and the May Stampin' Success is already there. This information is in the May Stampin' Success that goes out to all demos. ACK! and I just placed an order for some packs of cardstock in the "retiring" colors. I guess I'll have to get stampin!

Oh, Ok...I thought I remembered Emily saying that you were a demo when she was signing up to be a demo (I think I got that right??), or was it the other way around. At least you have your sis close now so you can get the latest scoop!

Yup...smells like a rat! Why do people have to do stuff like that and spoil things?

Kimur · 04-14-2005, 11:17 AM

Wow.... that's great news. I can't wait to see the new colours. I'm loving SCS too as a faster source of info (I seem to get my mailings a lot later in Ontario).

Kimur · 04-14-2005, 11:18 AM

oops.... guess I should be logged onto SU as well to check out my info there!!

kzimbie · 04-14-2005, 11:23 AM

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
I just got my full set of markers yesterday which completed my set of all the colors, stamp pads, paper, reinkers, markers! Now what do I do.

I guess new colors would have been more fun If I knew about them three months ago.

Oh well.

mamakimberly · 04-14-2005, 11:24 AM

kzimbie; you can buy markers individually! I am trying to figure out my marker box situation though!!

Is no one else excited????? I am!!!!! EMily is!!!! I can't wait!!! I don't care about having to revamp my system!!! This will be worth it!!! I'd much rather be working with and buying from a GROWING, ADAPTIVE company than a static, suck-fest!

WOOHOO!!! Bring 'em on!! SAVE your money peeps! This is gonna rock!

bellkee · 04-14-2005, 11:36 AM

I'm EXCITED! I have all the old style pads and couldn't reason with myself to buy the new ones. Now I HAVE to buy them. It would be impossible to store both styles...at least I think so

My demo is going to love me!

shellymayz · 04-14-2005, 11:38 AM

I am way excited about new organges!!! Yes, yes, yes!!! And I rarely ever used marvelous magenta and mauve mist - and Mint Melody (yikes - my least favorite color by a mile!!!) New and improved colors, new neutrals - Woo-hoo!!!!!

I just have to say Mamakimberly, I just love you! I know I would really enjoy you in person. You have such a fun way of putting things that are not offensive, but to the point. Thanks for always making me smile with your random off-the-wall posts! You totally rock!

Hugs, Alicia

oh, i am terribly excited.. especially after looking online at the SS. the color combos are great. i just think it is rottent that someone creates a new name just to squeal.

emilymomto3boys · 04-14-2005, 11:41 AM

I am thrilled! Those three that are retiring are my LEAST used colors! And now there are more choices!!! Way Way cool!

azure722 · 04-14-2005, 11:45 AM

I too am excited about the new colors and slightly frustrated as Mr. Brown delivered the last of my craft pads 4 days ago but..... why is this on the general discussion board?!! I won't be so subtle!! SHAME on you squeakyleaky!! Are you proud of yourself? For every good thing someone has to be there to ruin it right. This is not general knowledge yet!!!

stampinjewelsd · 04-14-2005, 11:45 AM

I am totally thrilled with the new colors. They look fabulous! I can't wait to get them in my hands!

Julie

Mom2MalNJaden · 04-14-2005, 11:48 AM

Wow! Some people sure go through alot to get the word out!!!

They will have downloadable labels for the marker box and stampin' pastels after the new catty comes out.

I'm sure you still have "connections", eh, MamaK?

How cool is that? I must have been so excited I forgot to read that part to her!

Doris · 04-14-2005, 11:55 AM

I think these new colors are great. The colors they are discontinuing I never used anyway, and these new colors sound beautiful. I have all the old ink pads....not sure what I will do about the new colors...maybe just buy the markers and paper first and see how much I use them.
Am glad to hear about this....gives me time to think and plan for the new catty...where will I spend my money???

lovemykids · 04-14-2005, 11:56 AM

What about the color caddy?????? Yikes!

I am excited about the new colors! I totally agree with Mamakim with SU being able to change and grow! It is only a few colors!

LDSDinks1993 · 04-14-2005, 11:56 AM

I am not sure I understand what the big deal with SqueakyLeaky telling about the new stuff. I wish I would have known before I just ordered all 48 stamp pads! I am glad she told us.... I was about to buy all the markers - I am glad I found out before I dumped more money out....
Thanks squeaky

Doris · 04-14-2005, 12:00 PM

I want to say Thanks to Squeakleaky too! I would have been really mad if I had spent money, and then found out they were discontinuing or changing my product. I think you are terrific for telling us. Thank you!!

do-it-4life · 04-14-2005, 12:00 PM

Ok, I'm excited about the new colors. Who cares who leaked it. It makes us customers just as excited as you demos. Cha'ching we will definitely be getting ready to spend some $$$ as soon as they become available with our demos, which I'm sure you all appreciate. Whoever shared, thanks for sharing!!!

miss missy · 04-14-2005, 12:04 PM

I am very happy to know this info, I am part of a marker club though so it kinda stinks b/c next month i will have all of the markers but not in current colors and no way to fit them in the box!!! I have held out to join the marker club until a few months ago and now the storage box which is the only bonus of buying all at once, will not work. Also I will have packs of all the paper that will no longer be current colors. Oh well I am happy for the info eithr way, maybe SU will offer a solution for the marker box issue. I don't mind the paper but the box bothers me!

tc82742 · 04-14-2005, 12:08 PM

take teh discontinued markers, and put a rubber band around them.. and store them in your pen/marker drawer on their side.. cause they wont get used much anyway.. with no "coordinating" paper.. and keep your black marker on the desk all the time.. cause you use it a lot.. then you have room for the new ones!

that is what i plan to do.

jm_donahoe · 04-14-2005, 12:10 PM

Ok, so now I have to cancel some shopping trips and save up! And thank goodness they're putting neutrals as an assortment pack! I hate buying them all seperately sometimes. Sounds good! I guess I should sign up soon... I have been thinking about it for a while and now it looks lke I will need the discount lol! And when will SU! stop producing the retiring colors? So excited for the apricot color! Kinda scared about Bliss Blue and Pos Pink, should I stock up on those colors? hmmm...
