Do you get frustrated when you want to use a certain color of cardstock on a scrapbook page, card, etc. and can’t find any paper or embellishments to match it? Is it taxing for you to go through rows and rows of card stock to find a piece to match that gorgeous strip of ribbon you want to use? Well, guess what…Stampin’ Up! makes it so easy for you! Their fabulous colors are grouped in 4 coordinating collections and 2 trendy in-color groups and include card stock, designer paper, ribbon, brads, buttons, inks, and watercolors. They make it so easy to find and match products expertly!
For example, let’s take a look at Tempting Turquoise, one of 10 colors from the Brights Collection. 
It has matching designer paper in the Brights Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack (117155), as do the other 9 colors.
There is a Tempting Turquoise Ink Pad (100814)
and an Ink Refill (101041), 
along with a Stampin’ Write
Marker (100058) in the same color.
Then, there is a ribbon to match-Tempting Turquoise 1/4″ Grosgrain Ribbon (124323). 
Want some other embellishments?
Get the Brights Brads (119740), the Brights Glimmer Brads (121006),
the Brights Flower Brads (119734),
or the Brights Buttons! (119747)!
So, all you have to do is go here and you will see the 6 color collections and the Getting Started Collection. Select the color of card stock you want and click on it. You will then see all of the individual products that are in the color you selected. Once you’ve done that, look back over to the left column and click on Embellishments. You will see a drop-down menu with Brads, Buttons, Ribbons and Fibers, etc. Click on each one and look for the name of the color collection you need. That’s all there is to it! You will have everything that coordinates with the color card stock you chose!
If you have a 2011-2012 Idea Book and Catalog, you can also look on pages 176-180 to see the color collections and the other items available for each collection, but this catalog is only good until the end of May, 2012.
Don’t forget that the 2010-2012 In Color Collection (Peach Parfait, Poppy Parade, Pear Pizzazz, Concord Crush, and Blushing Bride) will be retiring on May 31, 2012, so make sure you get all you need before then!
Have fun shopping and let me know if you have any questions. Terry
