Stampin' Up! DIY Color Charts Download & Video

Stampin up color chart


[UPDATE: Subscription link now includes the 2017 - 2019 In Color PDF. If you subscribed by May 30, 2017, you should already have the updated PDF in your inbox!]

Do you need an updated Stampin' Up! Color Chart? Look no further because I've got what ya need! Lol. 

I posted about these color charts before, but little did I know that I was STILL behind on In Colors after being gone from SU! for two years! I know...I didn't do my homework lol.

So...here is another post with updated pdf of the SU! Base colors and In Colors from 2011 - 2013 through the current 2016 - 2018 In Colors.

Each set is on its own page so once you download the file, you can just print the pages you need!

This is what it looks like completed (see below) for the current 2016 - 2018 In Colors. Sorry for the poor lighting, it's actually very difficult to take a picture of white paper lol, but I think it serves its purpose.

July Do-Over: Sweet Cupcake Masculine Happy Birthday Card



So a few weeks ago I became a Stampin' Up! demonstrator after taking two years off...YAY!!! I had been longing to get back in the game and I am happier than ever now! The only thing I was disappointed about was how many of my stamps, punches, framelits, etc. were now retired!!! I am talking like 90% lol.

So needless to say not only do I have two years of in colors to catch up on, but I need to restock on pretty much everything!

Anyway, as I went down memory lane looking through my box of cards I made 2-4 years ago, I found so many cards that I wanted to re-do with current stamp sets.

SO that's when I came up with the idea that I should do a monthly series where I re-do a card I made years ago using current stamps! Hence the title "Do-Over"!

Stampin' Up! DIY Color Swatches


Is the SU! Color Coach helpful for you, but just doesn't match the color of the cardstock EXACTLY when you need it for that purpose?

If the answer is yes, then you're like me and you'll probably like this project!

I decided to make my own DIY color swatches using the SU! card stock that I had (pictures above).

What do you need?

All you need are THREE things:
- Card stock of choice
- Punch of choice (pictured above is the Pansy Punch)
- Dark and Light Marker

Next, you just punch out the pieces using the punch of choice and write the color name on each piece.

Below is a video I posted to my youtube channel showing exactly how it's done and can be applied using any card stock, punch, and markers of your choice!

What color swatches have you created? Leave a comment below and share!



If you are interested purchasing product or in becoming a Stampin' Up Demonstrator for business or just hobby, send me a message, I would love to hear from you!

Is Swagbucks Legit? How to make money on Swagbucks!

Is Swagbucks Legit? How to make money on Swagbucks!


Wondering if Swagbucks is legit? Asking yourself does Swagbucks really work? Can you really get free money from it?

I asked the same question and after stalking the internet for various Swagbucks reviews and YouTube videos of others using it, decided to try it myself and the answer is YES it really works!

NO you won’t be able to quit your day job, but incorporating it into your every day routine (or every other day) is definitely worth it.

In this video (see below) I share with you how I use Swagbucks, how to earn “swagbucks”, and even some of the gift cards i’ve redeemed over the past few months using Swagbucks.

If you would like to try it out for yourself, head over to http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/betheswag (my referral link) and give it a try!

You also get I believe 30 SB for signing up.

I would love to know what types of things work for YOU and what you have gotten so feel free to comment below!
