Ive spent some time this week organizing both my digital stash and making page kits out of my paper stash. I'm really noticing that pink and teal are HUGE right now. I don't mind either of those colors. But when I was putting all my new stuff away, I was just overwhelmed with how much of it I have. Im probably going to split apart several of the paper kits I put together just so I dont have so many layouts with pink and teal, pink and teal, pink and teal.
Anyone else over inundated with certain color pallets?

I noticed that there is very little purple right now. My cousin wanted purple and blue baby shower invites and it was a bit of a challenge to find something that would work with her theme.

Pink seems to be a recurring theme, paired with different colors, each year for the past decade! Remember KI Memories adding pink to its wildly popular Christmas/winter lines back in the day? Although pink is my favorite color & it is incorporated into many of our son's pages, I'm grateful a few manufacturers still produce pink-free masculine lines for those of us scrapping primarily our post-toddler through preteen boys!
Hoping the pink will be replaced with purple as next season's trend. Purple & teal is surging in popularity here - Go Hornets!

Yes, I've noticed too. Love the colors together. I love aqua/turquoise/teal anything!

Purple is my favorite color...I can never get enough scrappy items in a good solid purple!

I am not a big pink & teal fan, so I too have noticed how much there is of it. but I'm actually glad, because that's less stuff I want to buy.

Don't wait to buy it ... make it ... DIY
Remember how we all did it when we were starting out?
Get yourself a pretty purple paint marker and go through your stash for scrappy items to turn purple!

I'm noticing a lot of peach and teal too, mostly because I'm not a huge fan of the color peach. As for pink and teal, I like pink and I like teal but put them together and it just screams "Miami Vice" to me and I can't do it.

I agree about the teal and pink - so much of my current stash has those colors. I'm noticing a lot of mint and coral, too. I love those colors, but they don't really go with what I have to scrap so they're really starting to pile up.

I think I count the mint, coral, and peach all as "pink and teal" LOL. I know they are different shades but its still in that color pallet. But....it sounds like work

Seems like there is a lot of black, red, and yellow too. My oldest daughter loves purple and it is hard to find. I've seen several love/hate purple threads on different scrapbooking boards. Not a big seller I guess.

Seems like there is a lot of black, red, and yellow too. Those colors make me think of Disney layouts Im finding I REALLY like the black, white, yellow combo. Just recently Ive done a few layouts in those colors.

Yes, yes! And I love these colors, but I find myself thinking "didn't I already use you?" When actually it is a different line! Hopefully since I don't scrap chronological there will be a good mix in the album.

I scoop up all the red, black, white and yellow "Disney-ish" papers I can find, as well as anything princess. I have several Disney trips to scrap, and we're planning to go again soon with DD. Between buying the CD, the pics I took, the ones DH took and the 800 or so "Grampa" took just on our last trip, no matter how much I weed it down it will still be a lot of pages to scrap!

I love seeing the pink and teal, with a little bright showing through like orange or coral. When mentioned disney thought of the say cheese line so cute for the red black white and yellow

Have you seen the simple stories "Say Cheese" line? I LOVE it. I saw someone post some layouts with it on two peas and I knew I had to have it. Its a couple years old, so I kinda had to scour the internet to find certain elements, but Ive been quite successful. Im just finishing up scrapping my second trip, I have two more to scrap, and a new one coming up in Oct. I love Disney

I'm not sure if it's just me, but I've been noticing a lot of yellows lately, from gold to sunny lemon. I've never been much of a yellow lover, but now I cannot get enough!

Yes the turquoise, teal, Aqua is really popular I don't mind it with the purples and orange but I really hate it with pink.
