rainbow order for new color reset

With the big move behind us and most of our stuff organized and unpacked – phase two (my permanent office space) not yet upon us…I decided to get very organized with this upcoming catalog launch.

I decided to organize my inks markers re-inkers and Blends – I wanted them all accessible and together, organized but displayed nicely and the Super Combo Holder was the ticket – so I started purchasing my first organizational supplies from a great company called stamp.n.storage. My first purchase was their Super Combo Holder I bought a 36 and a 24 and placed them on my temporary Stampin’ desk so all of my ink pads, Stampin’ Blends, Stampin’ Write markers and re-inkers are all super organized, beautiful to look at and VERY accessible! I LOVE IT!!!!!
I also decided to arrange the current and incoming new COLOR RESET colors in Rainbow order instead of by color families as I had been doing in the past!
Here is a photo of the stamp.n.storage Super Combo Holders.

Next I tackled my cardstock!

I have always kept my cardstock in Stampin’ Up!’s 9″ x 12″ cello bags and was able to put my sheets and scraps in the same bags – BUT inevitably they ripped up top or down the sides and needed to be replaced and just looked messy after a while!
So I purchased the paper pockets made by stamp.n.storage both in portrait and landscape and put my little label maker on overtime!
Landscape for easy access opening from the side for my 8.5″ x 11″ cardstock and portrait opening at the top for my paper scraps to organize by color!

So for my Rainbow order I separated the colors in Rainbow order and hue:
1. Cherry Cobbler

Some people have placed there rainbow order a little differently than mine but I chose to place mine by hue and I see more blue/purply hues in the Berry Burst, Fresh Freesia and Bubble Bath – so I chose to place them at the end of the spectrum with the blues and purples rather than the pinks and reds.

The first new color in the color rest is Lemon Lolly, belonging in the Subtles collection this new Super Soft yellow is such a pretty yellow and a great addition to our collection!

Next color in the Rainbow order is a returning favorite of mine Lemon Lime Twist – in the Brights Collection it is a powerful yellow green – bright and bold! I was hoping so much that they would bring this color back that I did not sell my retired paper LOL!

The Green blue family also got Pretty Peacock as a returning favorite to the Regals Collection – bold green blue color, deep and rich!

Lost Lagoon is the next returning color in my rainbow order – this is another soft light demin blue green and is a welcome returning color to the Subtles Collection!

Another bright blue joins the Brights Collection replacing Pacific Point with a nice lighter version for this new core color.

Blueberry Bushel returns from our former In Color Collection to become a new Core color in the Regals Collection. Deep blue with a rich tone , it is a perfect addition to this collection of colors!

Blue was a popular Core color addition and returning Misty Moonlight completes the new blues in the Color Reset with it’s addition to the Neutrals Collection. Muted and stately – it will be a great Neutral in this collection.

Returning Berry Burst is a sumptuous purple with blue tones and completes the Brights Collection new additions.

Fresh Freesia is the only recent In Color to make the Color Reset and steps down perfectly into a bluish pink tone for our last two colors to be placed into the Subtles Collection!

Bubble Bath is the last new core color to be added to the Subtles Collection with it’s bubblegum pink color and a rich blue undertone I placed it at the end of the rainbow order before starting the neutral colors.

Pecan Pie introduces a new neutral brown to our Neutrals Collection to replace the exiting Soft Suede.

I separated the New Incoming In Colors and returning In Colors to the end of the line as they are not core colors and will change every 2 years

The new In Colors for 2023-2025 are:
Copper Clay
Wild Wheat
Boho Blue
Moody Mauve
and Pebbled Path (my personal favorite of the
new In Color Collection!)

The Returning In Colors for 2022-2024 that will be available for the next year are:
Sweet Sorbet
Parakeet Party
Tahitian Tide
Orchid Oasis
Starry Sky

One of the things I love most about this company is our color coordination – everything matches – the inks and papers, markers and blends, DSP and ribbons and embellishments.

I find that being organized allows my creativity to soar! I love to create and do not get me wrong MOST of the time my desk is a disaster! BUT when my space is clean and organized – when it is easy to locate the supplies I need – I find that I am able to create in peace and the end result is beautiful!

Please let me know if you have received your new catalogs and I will be posting new sneak peaks of colors and new stamps, dies and accessories that will be available soon!

Happy Stampin’
