Have you fluffed out your Tutu today yet? LOL, figuratively speaking? It's like 'putting ya big girl pants on' hey, getting on with it, 'adulting' as some say but yeah, who doesn't love a tutu to lift spirits, admire beauty, colour, glitter and maybe have a laugh? Here's my Tutu for today!
I've a different subject to talk about today and it's going back to matching colours, how colours are made, how they are 'created' for the human eye to see. It's no secret I frequent Pantone®'s website and get their newsletters. A recent newsletter that came had me totally hooked and fascinated in it's information and explanation. Have you seen around different sites/places/publications RGB/sRGB and CMY/CMYK ever mentioned? Well I thought those of you who might be secretly as nerdy nerd nerd as I can be when it comes to reading about these things might like to read this article. The link will be at the bottom of all this.
Learning what makes technology so fascinating, how printers work, how publications are created, how colours are mixed and not mixed, what makes the human eye see colours differently from one person to the next. It's all fascinating to me. In another life I so would have been a designer of some kind. I'd loved to have been given the opportunity to be a graphic designer or even interior designer or someone who helps choose colours for coordination in wow just any field you could think of but particularly in the area of art and creativity. (Which yeah I know is limitless!)
NOTE: I did not create this graphic above, it was created by a lady named #KellyKent and shared on my upline's page by a fellow demonstrator, #JessieHolton
Why am I talking about this? It's because new colours and shades come out all the time and like any company when creating a new range, Stampin'Up!® can't keep every single colour and range in stock for ever. Life would be pretty dull and boring if things didn't constantly change, upgrade or be improved upon or varied somewhat. So with that in mind, the above colour chart for the new 2019-2021 In Colours, take a look at this recent article from:

I hope you found that as fascinating as I did or it may have prompted you to realize that when new catalogues come out, every single product has to be reviewed, and carefully thought about going into the future. Fashion changes, colour trends change, but they do have that six degrees of separation in that what was once old, is now new again and what was new is now old. Oh my, that was 'deep' LOL
