The New 2026-2028 In Colors from Stampin’ Up!

The new 2026-2028 In Colors from Stampin’ Up! have been released, as they always are at this time of year. Have you seen them yet? What do you think? Let’s look at each one, and then you can pick your favorite.

In Colors

First, for those who aren’t familiar with In Colors, these are five new trendy colors that are introduced by Stampin’ Up! each year and become a part of their color collections. They are available in card stock, ink pads, alcohol markers, and (new this year!) glimmer pens. They’re also featured in new designer series papers and embellishments. But here’s the catch, they’re only available for two years. And then we say goodbye to them… forever.

But let’s not worry about “goodbye” when we haven’t even all said “hello” yet. So, without further ado, here are your five new 2026-2028 In Colors…

Five New In Colors

A greeting card with a collection of leaves in pink and green and the sentiment, "Welcome, friend."

Barely Blush

A whisper of pink that looks like it just remembered it’s supposed to be a color. Soft, shy, and maybe a little flirty with the light.

Crisp Cantaloupe

A peachy-orange that feels like summer vacation bottled up in color form. It’s the friend who always brings snacks and insists you “just relax” — and honestly, you listen.

Golden Glow

A warm honey-gold that looks like it’s perpetually basking in compliments. It’s the color equivalent of someone who always finds the best lighting — effortlessly radiant and just a little bit showy.

Hydrangew Hue

A serene blue that feels like it’s been meditating all morning. It’s calm, collected, and gives off major “I’ve got my life together” energy — even if it secretly misplaced its keys.

Peaceful Pine

A mellow green that’s basically nature’s deep breath. It’s the color that tells you to slow down, sip your tea, and pretend you’ve got a cabin in the woods — even if you’re just in your living room.

Favorite In Color?

Five circles in various colors.

What do you think? Do you have a favorite? Or is it too hard to choose? Mine is the Hydrangea Hue. I love that color blue and we didn’t have it in our core colors. I also really like the Golden Glow, even if it is “a bit showy.” 

Five cards, in five different colors, all featuring an identical collection of leaves and the sentiment, "Welcome, friend."

If you’re curious about the five colors we just said goodbye to, here they are… the 2024-2026 In Colors. May they rest in peace. Although some of the items in this color collection are still available to buy in our Last Chance section. You can check that out by clicking here.
