In Color Club

New In Colors, New In Color Club

The 2025-2027 In Colors will be here soon, May 6 to be exact. Are you eager to get signed up for my 2025 In Color Club?!

Wondering what this annual club is all about? Well, first of all, the gorgeous new In Colors!

But we go deeper than just collecting new Stampin’ Up! In Color products. There is so much more to do with them and explore. That is what In Color Club is focused on.

The 2025 In Color Club Line Up

The new 2025-2027 In Colors Include Strawberry Slush (a returning In Color favorite from some years back!), Timid Tiger, Darling Duckling, Cloud Cover and Secret Sea.

You will find each of these colors to be fabulous on their own. We are also meant to coordinate them with other core colors from the Stampin’ Up! familes of colors: the Subtles, Brights, Regals and Neutrals.

While you collect your 2025 In Color Kit from May thru September, you will receive products related to our In Color of the Month. By getting these products in your hands, you will see for yourself how wonderful they all are.

Each month there are 3 card kits to stamp and assemble. This helps you to discover how these new In Colors work with other current colors. This club also gives you design inspiration that you can use over and over again.

And of course, no happy mail is complete without some fun surprises in every package!

Let’s Take A Look At Your In Color Kit

The In Color Club Kit features a different In Color each month (we explore 1 new In Color per month). After 5 months in the In Color Club, you have a variety of In Color supplies that you will continue to use over and over.

How does the In Color Club help you? You will be able to budget in these products a little at a time, instead of purchasing them all at once.

Here’s a list of what you can expect when you sign up as a VIP:

I have to be honest. There is a quality issue with the Cloud Cover Ink Pad. Stampin’ Up! is working hard to get this difficulty resolved. They want to bring us the best possible product for us to use.

We may find that some of the Cloud Cover products are not available during the course of the 2025 In Color Club. In that case, I will refund you the product cost from your monthly fee.

2025 In Color Club Membership Levels

I have something new for the In Color Club in 2025! If you find it difficult to wait over the course of 5 months to get all the Ink Pads and other products, this is for you!

For the first time, I am offering 2 levels of In Color Club Membership.

You can choose to be a VIP Member. As such, you are a traditional club member receiving all the products, card kits and surprises delivered monthly.

Or, you can choose to be a Cardmaker Member. This new option allows you to receive just the card kits and fun surprises. You are in charge of ordering your own In Color products (great for Hobby Demos!).

VIP Member FREE Gift

When you stay with me in the 2025 In Color Club for all 5 months as a VIP Member, you will receive a special gift from me with your last club kit. It is my way of thanking you for your support and companionship from May thru September.

Common In Color Club Questions

I have had the pleasure of running a successful In Color Club over the past 4 years. Each year I strive to make it easier, better and more fun!

It is understandable that if you have not yet joined my annual In Color Club, you might have lots of questions about how it works. Here is a list of common ones. Please reach out to me if your answer is not given here or you would like more clarification.

Did your mind perk up with the “stamp set I am using at a discount” information above? Each month I choose a stand alone stamp set (one that isn’t part of a bundle) and feature it on the monthly club cards.

While you are free to substitute in any stamps you already have at home, you will also have the option to “add on” the featured stamp set I am using at the catalog or online price. I will invoice you for it, and it will come to you in your monthly club package! How fun is that?!

A Blast From the Past

While I can’t show you what the new 2025 In Color Club Kits will look like, here is a peek at what the kits looked like when we played with the 2024-2026 In Colors last year.

Each kit is meant to be robust with product, gifts and surprises. It is a learning tool that is valuable and just as much fun as our stamping play time! I look forward to welcoming you to the 2025 In Color Club.

New 2020-2022 In Colors Revealed

Every year, with the new Annual Catalog, Stampin’ Up! releases a set of five new In Colors into the color family realm. Anticipation builds months before, as we wonder what colors will be available for the next two years.

I have the excitement of a child opening a new box of crayons to see what color draws my eye first. And this year did not disappoint! The new 2020-2022 In Colors are truly fantastic!

This year we gladly welcome the following 2020-2022 In Colors: Cinnamon Cider, a delicious warm brown, just as the name implies. Just Jade, a washed green that evokes sea glass. Bumblebee, a divine golden yellow. Magenta Madness, the brightest fuchsia pink you can imagine. And Misty Moonlight, a perfect blue jean blue.

Celebrate With The 2020-2022 In Colors!

I couldn’t wait to work with the new 2020-2022 In Colors, so with some cardstock and designer series paper in hand, I went to work on my first card creations to showcase these fantastic colors.

The new stamp set, Celebrate Sunflowers, and the coordinating Sunflower Dies, helped me to bring my design to life. I wanted to be sure to make at least one card base in every 2020-2022 In Color, while mixing in the remaining colors as well.

In Color Designer

The card recipe is simple and I repeated it 8 times, each with a different result by changing up the coordinating 2020-2022 In Colors used. Certain portions remained constant, however. You will note on each card the following details:

-The card base and 4 x 4″ (top) DSP are the same In Color.

-The bottom 1/2 x 4″ DSP is the same In Color used for the 3 1/4″ square framing the stamped sunflower, and the die cut sunflower.

While changing things up, there remains some continuity.

In Color Card Assembly

These fun 2020-2022 In Color Cards were so easy to make in a large batch. Once I knew what size pieces I wanted to use and how the card lay-out would be, it was just a matter of playing with color combinations in a dry fit style. Kind of like trying on new clothes and mixing them with other things in your wardrobe!

Thanks A Bunch, Stamparatus

There was not a lot of room to add an additional paper sentiment, so I found the words “Thanks a bunch” from the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set the perfect fit to stamp directly onto the DSP.

I took advantage of my Stamparatus for the sentiment stamping, and it paid off big time! Because I needed to ink and stamp @4 times to get the words dark enough to be seen on the patterned paper, the Stamparatus lined up my stamp perfectly every time.

I lined up the DSP using the grid paper to mark the exact placement, held the DSP in place with the included magnet, and repeatedly inked and stamped my sentiment. Perfect stamping every time, and a breeze to change paper in between…just re-align the new paper on the grid marks!

Stamparatus in open position — Here the Stamparatus is open, with the clear plate holding the stamp off to the side. Notice I have the Memento Ink cover under the clear plate. This helps to hold the plate at a better angle while I re-ink my stamp. This sentiment is not dark enough yet, it needs a couple more applications of stamping.

In Color Sunflowers

The sunflowers are the main focus on my card (did you think the main focus was the new 2020-2022 In Colors, if so you are not wrong there, either!).

Because the new In Color Ink Pads were not available for pre-order (but coming soon: June 3, 2020), I stamped the sunflower using Memento Black Ink on a 3″ square of Whisper White Cardstock. Some of the petals overflow the paper. Notice the adorable petal bend in the stamped image, there is some depth created with it that I love!

Stamping Sunflower from Celebrate Sunflower Stamp Set

To add the touch of In Color I desired, I die cut the sunflower image in 2020-2022 In Color cardstock variety.

Sunflower Die and Magenta Madness Cardstock

After die cutting with my Big Shot, I used my Take Your Pick Die Brush and the foam pad to clean up the bits and pieces that were loose but needed help completely removing. There were a lot of confetti pieces of paper left behind!

Foam Pad for Take Your Pick Die Brush — Colorful paper bits are extra fun in the craft room! These could be saved for shaker cards or other projects as well.

In Color, Altogether

Once my card parts and pieces were trimmed, stamped and die cut, it was time to assemble. I simply adhered everything flat, and there are no embellishments on this card, so it is easily mailed.

The die cut sunflowers in the 2020-2022 In Colors do have a floating effect. The only place to adhere them to the card was in the center of each. This provides interest without added bulk.

The inside of my cards needed a little love. I like to add a white insert when using a color card base. Then I stamp a little something in the inner corner as well. For these cards, I used the smaller sunflower stamp and Memento Ink.

In Color Sunflowers, You Pick

These 2020-2022 In Color sunflower cards are as cheerful as real sunflowers. It is hard to pick just one as my favorite. Here are some comparisons of similar yet different results in my card making:

2020-2022 In Color Magentat Madness Cards — Both of these card bases feature Magenta Madness. The use of the additional 2020-2022 In Colors made them look so different from each other!

2020-2022 In Color Cinnamon Cider cards — These card bases are made with Cinnamon Cider. Again, alike and yet different with a change of colors to compliment!

2020-2022 In Color Bumblebee cards — Here, I feature the In Color Bumblebee as the base. Yet one looks masculine and one looks feminine by changing accent colors.

2020-2022 In Colors Misty Moonlight and Just Jade cards — My last two cards are in Misty Moonlight and Just Jade. Of all the new 2020-2022 In Colors, the Misty Moonlight DSP was the most difficult to stamp a saying on for visibility purpose.

2020-2022 In Colors Coming Soon To You!

As I write this post and create these sample cards, it is almost time to be able to order from the new 2020-2021 Annual Catalog.
