2-Minute Tuesday Tip Video - Create Your Own Color Combinations

Happy Tuesday everyone! Today I thought we would talk COLOR. I love color! I love creating with color, I love searching for new color combinations and I love stumbling on color combinations that I would have never dreamed of.

Today’s 2-Minute Tuesday Tip video is all about creating color combinations. As we mourn the loss of Stampin’ Up’s Color Coach, I am excited to share my own version of it. With my system, you will have LOTS more possibilities than you did with the Color Coach and create colors combos that work best on your projects.

Let’s get going with today’s video…

It’s just that easy! I hope you enjoyed today’s tip and that you can take some time to create one of these for yourself. Trust me, when you do, you won’t miss your Color Coach and you will be so tickled with your own personal color combinations.

Yesterday was a SUPER FUN day! My order of NEW Stampin’ Up products arrived and I get to spend today playing with all my new stamping toys!!! Lots of new stamp set, embossing folders, and Big Shot dies! Wahoo!

I love the new catalog!!! It’s chock full of amazing new stuff!

Do you have the NEW Stampin’ Up catalog??? If you are a current customer of mine, you should have a catalog or it should be arriving shortly. If you haven’t received your copy and you placed an order in 2015, please drop me an email and I can check on it for you.

Stampin’ Up demonstrators are all independent and we each pay for our own catalogs and shipping costs so if you have a Stampin’ Up demonstrator you are working with, please contact them to get a catalog. I’m sure they will be thrilled to get one to you.

If you don’t have a Stampin’ Up demonstrator, I would LOVE to be YOURS! Drop me an email at connie.stewart@cox.net and I will get a new catalog mailed out to you. Be sure to include your full name and full address. I strive to give my customers the BEST customer service possible and am always here to help in any way I can.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Hope you’ll join me again tomorrow for What’s New Wednesday! I’m off to play now!

Great Idea. I struggle with color combinations. I will try this. Thanks

Great tip Connie, you can even play a little and just dump the circles and see what happens.
Thank you.

Love your 2-minute Tuesday tips! I did the exact same thing with my CS samples, but here’s the next step: I punched a hole in each one. The punched-out circle was then glued to the cap of each of the matching ink refills for easy locating, and the holes allowed me to put the swatches on a ring for easy storage. Keep up the great tips!

Hmm, not sure what went wrong. Here’s a direct link. Just copy and paste and you can view it on YouTube. I did update my “click here to view” tab too. https://youtu.be/W5tFnCyT_oQ

Hello Connie! My name is Sunshine and I have just found your blog tonite, and have been looking at your videos. They are AMAZING!! I just watched the one about colour combo’s and how you punched out all your card colours and keep them in a little bag – love it! Fabulous idea and I am going to do a similar thing with all my card I have! Your videos are so easy-peasy to understand and follow! I have added you to my “favourites” list, and I will be letting my friends know about your fabulous blog too! Thank you:-)
