Hi! I’m Sara Levin the artful inker and independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrator in the US. Welcome to my blog. Today, I’m sharing the new 2022 – 2024 Stampin’ Up! In Colors comparison, a Color Combo download and a 2022 – 23 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog Tabs download. Let’s take a look.
2022 – 2024 Stampin’ Up! In Colors Comparison

The 2022 – 24 In Colors from Stampin’ Up! are (from top to bottom):
- Orchid Oasis
- Starry Sky
- Parakeet Party
- Sweet Sorbet
- Tahitian Tide
One of the things I hear every year when the new In Colors are released is “x color looks like y”. So keep reading for some color comparisons based on past and current colors. These color comparisons will give you a good feel for how the new In Colors can fit into your color range.

Tahitian Tide In Color Comparison

For Tahitian Tide, on the top row I layered it with Tempting Turquoise (retired) — an obvious comparison — and Bermuda Bay (current color). And after going through my current and retired pieces from the Cardstock Sampler Ring, I pulled out Island Indigo and Marina Mist (both retired) to give an idea of the new color against a spectrum of similar-ish hues. Tahitian Tide just screams summer! I’m going to love playing with this bright color.
Sweet Sorbet In Color comparison

For Sweet Sorbet, I found there were several previous reds that were “close but no cigar”. I was thinking it was going to be like Strawberry Slush but it’s not as pink. And, just comparing this new shade to Real Red and Poppy Parade didn’t give a true idea. The four colors I’ve chosen here (Watermelon Wonder, Strawberry Slush, Primrose Petals and Rose Red) are all retired but, they give a good idea about where Sweet Sorbet fits on the spectrum. I’m going to enjoy having another gradient on the red spectrum!
Parakeet Party In Color Comparison

I love a bright green! I was sure that Parakeet Party was going to be almost like Lucky Limeade or Lemon Lime Twist. As you can see, that’s not the case. To round out my color comparison, I’ve used Old Olive and Granny Apple Green.
Starry Sky In Color comparison

Again, looking at Starry Sky online I was sure that it was going to be almost like Blueberry Bushel and as you can see it’s not. You’re going to love this bright blue. Surrounded by some colors, I find it can even have a primary blue look. And, I know we all look for that from time to time as we create.
Orchid Oasis In Color Comparison

Now, Orchid Oasis really surprised me! Looking at it online, I had thought it was very blue. But instead, I think it is more of a periwinkle shade. Here, I’ve compared Orchid Oasis to both blue and purple to give you an idea, using Gorgeous Grape, Night of Navy, Rich Razzleberry, Blackberry Bliss. I’m looking forward to seeing how this shade plays with some of my faves!
