In the design world, a neutral color means something is without color. You can’t tell me that Merry Merlot, Mossy Meadow, and Night of Navy are without color! The Stampin’ Up! Neutrals Collection gives ‘neutral’ a whole new meaning. Like a little black dress, the Neutrals go with everything!
Speaking of little black dress, you may be wondering where Black went. It, along with Whisper White and Very Vanilla, have been moved to their own new color family: the Basics.
While the Neutrals & Basics play well with all the other colors families, they’re also perfectly capable of standing alone.
