Stampin' Up!® Color

Basic Information

  • In-Colors 2012 to 2014

Primrose Petals is a deep, bright pink with a gentle, sweet feel. It suggests primroses, pink flowers and spring gardens, while still reading as a flexible color rather than a single literal object. The shade has enough personality to stand on its own, but it can also support nearby colors when used with related tones, crisp neutrals or deeper accents. Depending on the surrounding palette, it can read as blush, rose pink, petal pink or soft floral pink, which gives it useful range for seasonal, natural, floral and themed designs.

Color Theory

Primrose Petals is a rich red with a subtle blue-red influence. It sits near the red area, giving it a warm presence that can either support nearby colors or become a clear focal accent depending on contrast. Its hue of around 350° gives it its blue-red character, its saturation of about 60% makes it feel rich rather than flat, and its value of about 80% gives it a medium-light, usable weight.
