Saying Goodbye to the 2019-2021 In Colors

Before I share today’s post, I want to give you a heads-up about a big sale that’s kicking off today. As Stampin’ Up! rolls out the new 2021 Annual Catalog to demonstrators, the company kicks off a Last-Chance Products Sale. Between today and May 3 2021, retiring products from the 2020 Annual Catalog will be offered on a “while supplies last” basis with some great discounts. Please come back this afternoon to check out the sale here.

You already know how much I love Stampin’ Up!’s color families and how excited I get this time of year when the new In Colors are about to roll out. Every year Stampin’ Up! introduces us to a set of five on-trend colors that will stick around for two years. Demonstrators will get our first peek at the 2021-2023 In Colors today (yay!) – I haven’t seen them, but I’m already in love. Here are the five colors that have been a part of our lives for the past two years:

I will admit that it sometimes takes me a couple of months to warm up to some colors – I fall deeply, madly in love with them just as they are retiring. I have loved Seaside Spray and Pretty Peacock, though, from the moment they came into our lives. As Fall came around that first year, Terracotta Tile became a staple color for me. Rococo Rose was never really on my radar until the January – June 2021 Mini Catalog. I’ve loved working with all five, but it’s time to say goodbye.

Today I’m sharing my favorite projects these retiring colors and my favorite color combination with each.

2019-2021 In Colors – All Five

This retiring collection of In Colors work beautifully together, and I’ve had fun combining them on a single project. These three projects feature all five of the 2019-2021 In Colors (you can click on any of these photos to read my original post for each project).

Purple Posy

Purple Posy is about as sweet and soft as a purple can get. Here’s a look at this gorgeous, retiring color:

Here’s my favorite color combination with Purple Posy (just happens to be all purples):

Seaside Spray

I love the blueness of Seaside Spray. That may sound silly (of course it’s blue), but there’s not a lot of green in this soft blue, making it perfect for Summer or Fall. Here’s a look at this amazing, retiring color:

I’ve used this color A LOT over the past two years. Here’s my favorite color combination with Seaside Spray:

Pretty Peacock

Pretty Peacock is such a warm, friendly blue with gorgeous aqua tones. It’s sophisticated when paired with warm tones and vibrant when paired with bright tones. Here’s a look at this awe-inspiring, retiring color:

Rococo Rose 

Rococo Rose is a dusty pink that’s warm and beautiful. I didn’t use Rococo Rose a lot until 6 months ago when it became a must-have in my craft room. Funny how that works! Here’s a look at this beautiful retiring color:

Terracotta Tile

I love the versatility of Terracotta Tile. Not only is it warm for Fall, but it’s also bright for Spring. Here’s a look at this incredible retiring color:

Shop the 2019-2021 In Colors

I’ve been pushing this for weeks, but you don’t always listen to me right away. You’ve got your own priorities (and I respect that). That said, time is running out to restock your inks, papers and accessories in your favorite retiring In Colors. Once these products are gone, they’ll be gone forever.

I still have one more project to share with these retiring In Colors – I created them for a team swap that hasn’t been mailed out yet. Hoping to share them next week.

Thanks for stopping by today!
