Many of you noticed the ink pads on the retired list and I’ve had many questions, so let’s have a look at the color Revamp in detail, it will help answer your questions.
Why are the ink pads on the retiring list?
- Stampin' Up! has improved the ink pad case and the ink formula. The redesigned ink pad case is now more simple and intuitive. Just insert your thumb in the lip and lift ... like a compact.
- It has a tighter fit between the lid and the base and the lid won’t become accidentally disconnected.
- It’s Stackable. The ability to stack the cases is easier.
- The case is slightly smaller and slightly thinner and has a very new sleek look. The pad inside is the same size.
- Yes, they will still fit in the carousel.
- Still has the great foam pad inside.
The Ink: Don’t worry, the existing reinkers will still work in your old and new pads.
What did they change? They put a de-foamer in the ink formula. This eliminates the bubbles many of us were experiencing.
On to the Color Revamp:
Stampin’ Up! likes to stay on top of current trends and every 5 years or so, they revamp our color selection to stay on trend.
This brings us to the 2018 Color Revamp!
There are still four color Collections:
Basic Black, Very Vanilla and Whisper White have been moved out of the Neutrals Collection to a new spot. A few new colors have been moved into the collection to make it more exciting and colorful.
Stampin' Up! sometimes brings back retired In Colors to become part of our core colors. Welcome back:
These are the 10 New colors that have been incorporated into the revamp:
13 Colors will be retiring: Always Artichoke, Elegant Eggplant, Island Indigo, Perfect Plum, Rose Red, Chocolate Chip, Tangerine Tango, Tempting Turquoise, Marina Mist, Pink Pirouette, Soft Sky, Wild Wasabi and Wisteria Wonder.
No Changes to the In Color program. There are always 2 sets and each year 1 set retires and is replaced by a new 2-year set. I Personally LOVE these 5 new colors!
Did you do the Math? We are keeping 27 of our existing colors and we now have 53 Colors coming in the New Catalog in June.
