2021-2023 In Colors

Welcome back, Stamping Friends! I am so excited to show you the new 2021-2023 In Colors from Stampin’ Up! I was waiting to show you until I had them “in hand.” And now I do, so take a look.

Aren’t they gorgeous? I love Fresh Freesia and Pale Papaya, but I also really like Polished Pink, Soft Succulent, and Evening Evergreen. Usually one or two of the In Colors has to “grow on me,” but this year – I like them all.

Here’s a comparison chart from my friend Susan – who also created the graphic above – (thanks, Susan!), so you can get an idea of how they look compared to other colors.

As you can see, they fill in some “holes” in our color spectrum!

Here’s another sneak peek! This card uses some of the products from the Hand Penned Suite Collection and all of the new In Colors.

I stamped the petal sets from the Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set twice on Basic White Cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, then colored with the new In Color Stampin’ Blends. And this is huge – we have Stampin’ Blends in all five new In Colors! I totally forgot to use Fresh Freesia, though, so my flowers and leaves are Pale Papaya, Polished Pink, Soft Succulent, and Evening Evergreen. I used Fresh Freesia for the card base, though, so all five colors are there.

I die-cut my flowers with the Penned Flowers Dies, then set them aside for a minute. I added a piece of the Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper (DSP) to the Fresh Freesia card base, then added a 3-1/4″ x 4-1/2″ piece of Pale Papaya Cardstock at an angle over the DSP. (I embossed the Pale Papaya layer with the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder first.)

After I embossed a 3″ x 4-1/4″ piece of Basic White Cardstock with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder, I added it over the Pale Papaya layer. Next, I added my flowers using Stampin’ Dimensionals. And finally, I added the sentiment. I stamped thanks two times in Pale Papaya using the Stamparatus. Then I punched the sentiment and another Pale Papaya layer using the Double Oval Punch.

I have to say, the new 2021-2022 Annual Catalog is one of my favorites! There are so many different styles. Whatever you’re looking for – cute, classic, floral, vintage, masculine – you’ll find it! In fact, I gave my catalog and some Post-It notes to Amelia so she could mark her favorites. She filled up the catalog with Post-its! I thought she’d go for the kid stamps – pirates, mermaids, and things like that. But, no. Her wish list is as large as mine! I can’t wait for her to try the chalk pastels. She used some in her art class a month or so ago and she loved them! I may order two sets so we can each have a set.

Thanks for stopping by Stamping with Buffy. Have a lovely day!
