Guide to Color Theory

Learn how to pick the perfect colors for your project

One of the hardest thing people seem to have is picking out colors that go together. That my friends is where color theory comes into play. I have created an easy to follow guide to color theory to assist you in picking out the perfect color combinations to really make all your projects shine!

I created a traditional color wheel to show you the idea behind color theory. This year Stampin’ Up! has a color wheel on page 132 of the Annual 2024-2025 Catalog. This color wheel has all the Stampin’ Up! colors so once you get the idea of how to the colors work you can easily use this one to pick out your colors from your Stampin’ Up! stash.

You can find a pdf of the catalog at the top of my website. Just hover your mouse over “Shop” and a drop down menus will appear. Simply click “Current Catalog” and go to page 132.
