there was a video where you were picking the colors for the color palate with the Black Widow pencils wasnt there? i thought i watched, now i wanna watch it again and I cant find it. I need to know if Im losing my mind. Can you help?
Yes, Sarah- ch-ching- keep that Money machine going- there are some great colorists on RUclips who share their skills, knowledge,work and downloads freely- you’re just out to make a buck-literally! A dollar for one coloring page download of roses so the viewer can color with you? I’m certain you digitized a photo to get that image. A color book that can be purchased that is so short it can be read in under five minutes?
@@casper116X I see you’re back again with you opinions that all artists should work for free. Selling a few products is what allows me to spend the rest of my time producing free content to help people. 90% of my time (AND my husband’s time) is spent producing content for free. I’m not sure how you expect artists to do all this for free with no other source of income? Regarding the roses, I have a video tutorial that teaches how to draw that exact rose, if you are genuinely interested. If you think an app can auto trace a photo to create linework like that, you do not understand much about art. I apologize for being blunt, but your comments haven’t really offered much grace my way to begin with. I hope this comment clears up some confusion, but I’m not going to keep justifying my income to you if you keep bringing this up. I hope you are more kind with your words to other creators on RUclips.
@@casper116X Oh Sarah, dont earn money, dont eat food, just sit in your cell and create for us! Dont so choosy beggar you jerk. lots of stuff in Sarah's "store" is free. What do you want her to do? This is her job, give everything away? What do you do for a living? huh? come on answer the question, I need to know so I can come and demand you work for me for free, cause you know that what you do right? it must be if this is how your getting on. on second thought, we dont need this toxic attitude around. dont like it, go away.
When I worked as a web designer, I wouldn’t have started a project without first choosing a colour palette. When I moved house a couple of years ago, I chose a colour palette for every room each including a metallic accent colour. Funny then that I hadn’t considered doing so for my colouring book until recently. I’ve now been using the bottom of the colouring page to swatch the colours and note which pencil it is. I also quite like mixing the colours together and then using a white or pink to burnish them. Thanks for another great video! 😉
just got this today... I like the interactive one. But I could see one day having this be an app. Where you could even import your own reference photo and it would help you figure out the colors you need. But love all the pictures and pallets to choose from.
Sarah your videos have really opened my eyes in the colored pencil world. I’ve been coloring for a very long time but always have gotten stuck on choosing colors other than the same ones over and over. I’m so happy I stumbled on to you and your super fun and informative videos. I know this vid will go a long way toward helping me get “unstuck”
Each set has some unique colours that you won’t find in any other pencil set. The scorpion set has a burgundy and a charcoal green that are astounding. I tell my students to get the original Black Widow set and the Monarch to start. That gets them the basics and the beautiful pastels.
I do find I use the same colors because I only have one set of colored pencils. They are just basic Crayola pencils and not much variety. My go-to colors are greens and blues together. I like that peacock combo.
My biggest problem is trying not to use too many colours! My earlier colouring pages are a mish mash of colours like a kindergarten kid! (I am 73) But I'm learning to be more selective, thanks to all the brilliant tutorials around.
I had my book printed at my local offoce store and then had them spiral bound it. It is perfect for days when I need help picking a color palette for my acrylic pours.
I love using color palettes. When I start a new crochet project choosing a palette is my first step. It has helped me make some really pretty, vibrant blankets.
I'm repurposing old linens into fabric hearts, adding vintage rick rack/lace/bias tape, etc. and wanting to add the best of these to match the linen/fabric colors while also adding buttons or vintage pins as well.
Great demo! Just got the catalog and waiting for the cubes to come.I use pastels, water colors and pencils. I will really enjoy choosing my palettes now! Thanks,Sarah!
Amazingly helpful tool for drawing and designing!! Fantastic, super useful and all the colour codes for so many types of coloured pencils and markers, a huge amount of work from you to assist us!! I am super excited with the catalogue and I definitely reccomend it!! Thank you very much!!
I have the whole Black Widow Set, I honestly fell in love with the color names, and now I’m in love with the pencils!! And I am THRILLED with your color catalogs!! AMAZING!!
Thank you Sarah! I love your color cube! Right now the only thing stopping me from buying it right this minute is I want to know if it’s possible for me, after purchase of course, to print each color as a full sized page. Please let me know! Thank you!
This is so helpful. This is one area I struggle in!!! Thank you so much!!! Saving up some extra money to get your color catalog. I need it. I have a feeling this will help me a ton.
I'm planning on a monochromatic artwork to start on Wednesday. And this tutorial will be helpful for choosing the right colors for the scheme I'm choosing.
I purchased the color catalogue and blocks and love using them. I use them every time I colour in and having a set of 300 colour pencils is no longer overwhelming. I just grab the colors according to a chosen palette and it always works. The only trouble I still have is deciding WHERE to apply what colours. Any suggestions??? Thanks heaps for the catalog and blocks … absolutely love them. Sometimes I just pull them out to stare at … so pretty💕
Knitting/crochet yarn, fabric, and paint are my main color palette mediums. Most of my watercolors all use the same 18 colors (plus all the mixes) because I was trained on traditional landscapes and haven’t branched out even into botanicals (I have one red lol). I just got the full Albrecht Durer set and hope to branch out into new colors to give me an idea of what colors to add to my watercolor palette.
Thanks for your videos. I just recently started drawing geometric shapes like Escher and others used for optical illusions. I have been shading with various gray pencils to make the drawing pop off the page or blend in. Now I want to use colors for the same purpose. So I need help with the color wheel to use the correct hue, saturation, etc. Also I build model cars and trucks with various paints with an air brush. Some of my two and three tone effects are great, but using a color wheel will me to paint more realistic looking vehicles.
I own the other Black Widow color sets (except for the “dragon ” set, because I can’t find it in Germany) and I’m quite surprised. They are smooth, nicely pigmented pencils and also affordable. Thanks for the ideas!
I have them all and love them including the light and dark flesh colours, in fact I bought seconds of the three basic ones as I have worn many of them down. 😍 I want to learn more about the colour pallet, maybe I need to watch this video a few times, at 73 I’m not as sharp as I used to be 😂
I know I'm here really late but this is so good and I love the idea of using colour palettes. I would love to buy your colour catalog but it's too far out of my budget. Great idea though, I love it!!
You are a brilliant business woman! Thank you for being so intuitive and savvy and inventive to fill the gaps in the coloring community that help us so much! I just downloaded the new bundle and was able to use the discount coupon that you emailed to me. I don't see a printable version of the Color Catalogue Companion in my downloadable list on the orders page of your website. That was pretty much what attracted me to make the purchase thinking it will be available as it is in Volumes 1 and 2. Will that be made available soon? Thanks!
Crochet plus coloring of course is what I use my Color Catalog for, its wonderful. I only brought the first one now I'm on my way to buying the second catalog. Companion you have to wait. LOL
Wait! Check your emails! You should have received a coupon that will get you the Companion for basically the same price if you already own the first Catalog. So instead of paying $29 for Volume 2, you’ll pay $30 for Volume 2 AND the Companion. It’s a limited special offer for current customers. If you wait, you’ll end up paying the full price for the Companion later.
A fun video idea came to mind while watching this video. Pick two random palettes from the color cubes. 🌈 For you, you could create a picture you would think fits those palettes. For the rest of us, we would need to search our coloring books for a page that the palettes seem to work with. I love your updated wall with things no longer straight up and down. It makes it more interesting!! ❤️
I have used color palettes that I get from the internet the majority of the time that I color . I just started crocheting again and will probably use them for that as well . I don't necessarily have " Go To " Colors cuz I color a range of different images therefore I use a range of different colors but that's where a lot of my time is spent trying to find a pallet to help me match specific colors that I've chosen based on the image . Not only can it be time-consuming It can be very frustrating at times so I would love to have the catalog and the companion but it is not in my budget . Perhaps sometime in the future .I do love your videos and your FB Group .💕
Don't bother scrolling through Pinterest, it's a rabbit hole & a time suck. If money is an issue, Design Seeds has 500+ free online palettes & they're all organized by color, theme, collection, etc. so that might be alot easier for you. Coolors.co also offers free palettes, but the interesting thing is that when you click on a color from a selected palette, it'll give you the hex code as well as the Copic and Prismacolor shade. That saves time & hassle swatching out to find the right pencil to use. Hope that helps :)
Hi Sarah, I have just joined your website ,Thank you for the welcome note and coloring book. I will be buying the Ultimate bundle end of July 2022 .....I have Prisma Color and Faber Castell Polys . thank you again for a great Videos and Content, Happy new year
I have all the Black Widow sets but the Monarch, which wasn't available when I bought my other sets. I didn't care for the pencils that much but that might have been due to the paper I was using. I have much better paper today so I'll try them again.
Great ! I have 2 questions : 1/ brands currently supported do not include ARTEZZA, that you suggest as an OPTION to PRISMACOLOR (budget !). 2/ are the updates (e.g. new brands) loaded for free once you have bought the bundle ? I suppose that the catalogues can also be loaded on PC. Thank you for the infos.
All future updates will be sent to current customers for free. Early 2022 I’ll be sending out a survey to decide what new brands to include in an update 😊 And yes, it can go on a PC.
Will you be planning on adding more sets like Derwent Lightfast? I usually draw from a reference photo but sometimes it's fun to just make up the colors and see what you get :)
I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but for handmade cards. I've been in a creative rut lately and I think this video and these PDFs are the tool I've been searching for to get me out of it.
Sarah, what is difference between Castle and Black Widow pencils? What about water pencils? They look fun but, I’m not sure how they work and choosing a brand. Your ideas are always appreciate. I’ve usd the catelogues and they are very helpful. By the way I believe you are using my Black Widow pencils. 😅❄️☃️💕✨ Arlene
+Arlene Plake I’m recording a bigger comparison next week with some more specifics about the differences between these and all my other pencils - I’ll be including more details about the color ranges, performance, availability, pricing, etc- so all this will help. At the end of the day, it comes down to personal preference more than anything!
I have a question I bought the volume catalog 2 a while back . However I don’t use it 😊 because I fine it difficult to much up the colors. I don’t have a printer right now . And ,I don’t have all those color pencils you have . I have a prisms 150 & fiber Castle polychromes set. Also black window wish I never use? Atresia color pencil set which I never used. 😊And, 0hunu Honolulu 100 set I enjoy them but kinda fine it difficult to use because of the way they have number there colors it’s kinda hard to find. However, I have herd they redid these and the newer markers are much easier to read now. Trying not to buy everything that comes out because it does get expensive. But I do find it frustrating to pick out colors when you see so many talented people coloring pages. I am interested in a coloring companion since it’s already printed with a lot of colors and combination’s. But I can’t really but the bundle because I have the catalog already. If you could please help me out I would appreciate it. Thank you, marina
Does this catalog help you find blending combos for shadow, midtone & highlight for the colors? Or is it just use these base colors together and you find the blending combos for that color yourself?
Trying to colour match might be easier still if the Swatch was to be printed as a thick rectangular frame (with one edge thicker to give a good colour block). One could use different corners or edges with different pencils when experimenting then.
I have the full set of Black Widows and I love them. The colours are unique but as you mentioned in another video they don't keep a sharp point so I just use them when a sharp point isn't needed. Amazon has them and they're not very expensive at all. 🙏 Sarah Renae for a very informative video. I'm a purple, pink, red girl with blue/green shades and I do need to start finding new colour matches.😉🌹
Do you already have The Color Catalog? If you do, I’ve emailed out a coupon to get the Companion at a huge discount. If not, it is still cheaper to buy together and will be the current price until end of Feb 2021, so enough time after Christmas 🙂
@@ChelleBeeby definitely check your junk email too, and let me know if you don’t get an email by tomorrow. If you already own the Color Catalogs, you can upgrade for just $7 instead of $45!! But only until end of Dec. Reach out to me via email if you get stuck and I’ll send your code directly.
I love both the color catalogs! They are incredibly helpful when I get color "blocked." I also love using them as a comparison to my Copic markers when it comes to colored pencils, as they are newer to me. They help me understand a little better the different color ranges. Speaking of the color palette and the color wheel, I have a question. I struggle to determine Blue-Violets (which seem to be missing in colored pencils a bit) and some Yellow Greens in colored pencils. As with Copic Markers, they organized that for me. Do you have any tips, especially for someone who is very OCD? I am constantly second-guessing if I have the right color family. Thank you so much for this video and such wonderful inspiration!
I second-guess my grouping a lot too- because honestly, there is no “line” where one group stops and another starts. It’s a continuous transition between groups, so it comes down to your own discretion. I often resort my pencils, but at a certain point, you just have to make a decision and try to be ok with what you have decided. I know that’s a really hard thing if you’ve got OCD!
@@SarahRenaeClark It is so helpful to know that I am not alone in this. And yes they do all blend and color can be so interpretive. I have been sitting for a couple months doing swatches and thinking that since I am not a pro, that there is no way they are right. (Which is the wrong kind of thinking.) I have been frozen instead of having fun coloring and that ends today! Thank you for that sound advice. You are always so helpful and it is much appreciated.
I love the aesthetic color palettes I found on pinterest. I mostly do digital art so it's more fun to use color palettes (I don't have a lot of colored pencils that match the colors, but I have a lot of pinks for some reason)
CAN THESE COLOR PALETTES WORK ( OR ALMOST MATCH UP) WITH CASTLE ARTS SUPPLIES PENCILS, CREYART PENCILS OR OTHER BRANDS OF PENCILS? I OWN THESE BRANDS-THE OTHERS YOU MENTION ARE WAY OUT OF MY BUDGET. TY
I don’t have them in my swatch books, but there’s a blank book included in The Color Companion so you can try to match them yourself and write the pencil numbers in
Hello Sarah I have a question for you. I am wanting to get your color catalogs and possibly the other one as well and I was curious what is the difference between color catalog 1 and color catalog 2 are. Is there a difference?
So I just received the colour cubes (which are stunning) and just bought the colour catalogue etc. I truly struggle with colours and am wondering if you could do a video where you choose a colouring page from a more intricate/complicated book (like a Kerby Rosanes for example) and show us your process? Would you choose more than one palette? On a page with a ton of different images I would use more than five or six colours. I'm not sure if I'm being clear with what I'm trying to ask.... sigh
For coloring I do like my prismacolor but I also include some of my polychromos and now the New Castle arts 120 collection so soft and creamy that I don't have to use up my prismas in the coloring books and they have a different range of colors. For my art though I am truly a Derwent lightfast girl and I love my pollys and Caren dache
I am feeling very frustrated because I recently ordered your entire Color Cube/Catalogue/Companion Set and then emailed your Customer Service Dept. because I had an important question about how the Color Companion worked but never heard back beyond getting an automatic canned email response. I don't understand how you can continue to market and sell your $100 product without offering any customer support behind it. Really disappointing! ☹😖
The color catalog comes in a volume 1 and a volume 2. Does volume 2 have all new pallettes, or will it have a lot of duplicate palettes from volume 1 with some or all new palettes added to it?
They are a completely new set of palettes- so 250 in each volume, 500 in total if you buy both as a bundle- which also opens up a discount on the companion
The only pallet I used was orange and teal in short advert because it was inspired by mad Max and I really just want get more creative with it rather than just using a good standard
Hi Sarah, I bought both of the catalogs (love them btw they’re even great for picking nail polish combinations) but I never got an email with the discount coupon😢. Is too late to get the discount?
Hi Sarah: Do you have a catalog that I can purchase that is not a digital file? I would like the actual catalog, for I don’t want one that I have to print.
I just purchased my copy of the color catalog + companion set. I can't wait start using it. Problem is I have no Adult coloring books. The children coloring books are too simply in my opinion. Tried it and I'm losing motivation.
Hello I tried to purchase the color catalog companion, and it’s $45? I already have the color catalog volume two and I cannot figure out how to get the discount? Thank you
Yes, and if you send me an email I can still give you the coupon to get the companions for $7 if you’ve already purchased both catalogs instead of paying $45. The companion is well worth it if you find yourself using the brands that are included.
I deleted my email with the discount for the companion in error . I recently purchased the full color catalog. Can you please help me get the discount again? Thank you.
Another great way to learn how to use colors is with the color wheel! Here's a basic lesson for you: ruclips.net/video/YeI6Wqn4I78/видео.html

I have 2 questions : 1/ brands currently supported do not include ARTEZZA, that you suggest as an OPTION to PRISMACOLOR (budget !). 2/ are the updates (e.g. new brands) loaded for free once you have bought the bundle ? I suppose that the catalogues can also be loaded on PC. Thank you for the infos.
All future updates will be sent to current customers for free. Early 2022 I’ll be sending out a survey to decide what new brands to include in an update 😊
And yes, it can go on a PC.
@@SarahRenaeClark Thank you for you answer
Will you be planning on adding more sets like Derwent Lightfast? I usually draw from a reference photo but sometimes it's fun to just make up the colors and see what you get :)
There’s a full list of what will be included on my website. Eventually I might add more if there are popular requests.
I bought it. Thank you you are amazing
Thank you!! Right back at you!
I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but for handmade cards. I've been in a creative rut lately and I think this video and these PDFs are the tool I've been searching for to get me out of it.
Sarah, what is difference between Castle and Black Widow pencils? What about water pencils? They look fun but, I’m not sure how they work and choosing a brand. Your ideas are always appreciate. I’ve usd the catelogues and they are very helpful. By the way I believe you are using my Black Widow pencils. 😅❄️☃️💕✨ Arlene
+Arlene Plake I’m recording a bigger comparison next week with some more specifics about the differences between these and all my other pencils - I’ll be including more details about the color ranges, performance, availability, pricing, etc- so all this will help. At the end of the day, it comes down to personal preference more than anything!
You’ll get colours such as Cyanide Pink in one of the other sets. There are lots of weird colour names.
I love it! Keeps things interesting!
I have a question I bought the volume catalog 2 a while back . However I don’t use it 😊 because I fine it difficult to much up the colors. I don’t have a printer right now . And ,I don’t have all those color pencils you have . I have a prisms 150 & fiber Castle polychromes set.
Also black window wish I never use? Atresia color pencil set which I never used. 😊And, 0hunu Honolulu 100 set I enjoy them but kinda fine it difficult to use because of the way they have number there colors it’s kinda hard to find. However, I have herd they redid these and the newer markers are much easier to read now.
Trying not to buy everything that comes out because it does get expensive.
But I do find it frustrating to pick out colors when you see so many talented people coloring pages.
I am interested in a coloring companion since it’s already printed with a lot of colors and combination’s.
But I can’t really but the bundle because I have the catalog already.
If you could please help me out I would appreciate it.
Thank you,
marina
Does this catalog help you find blending combos for shadow, midtone & highlight for the colors? Or is it just use these base colors together and you find the blending combos for that color yourself?
I use colour pallets for face and body painting! 🎉❤
Trying to colour match might be easier still if the Swatch was to be printed as a thick rectangular frame (with one edge thicker to give a good colour block). One could use different corners or edges with different pencils when experimenting then.
Would you ever release a color cube for Crayola colors?
You can use color palletes in character designs-
I'm using a base because I'm feeling lazy, but, so far I think it looks good!
Will Arteza color pencils be added?
I have the full set of Black Widows and I love them. The colours are unique but as you mentioned in another video they don't keep a sharp point so I just use them when a sharp point isn't needed. Amazon has them and they're not very expensive at all. 🙏 Sarah Renae for a very informative video.
I'm a purple, pink, red girl with blue/green shades and I do need to start finding new colour matches.😉🌹
Hi Sarah, do you add other colors that go with the 6 matches. Say, a brighter and a lighter tone of each?
It’s totally optional, but I often do!
💜💜💜tfs💜💜💜 I was excited by the companion, unfortunately not this side of Christmas.
Do you already have The Color Catalog? If you do, I’ve emailed out a coupon to get the Companion at a huge discount. If not, it is still cheaper to buy together and will be the current price until end of Feb 2021, so enough time after Christmas 🙂
@@SarahRenaeClark I have both the catalogues yes. I’m stalking my mailbox but nothing yet.
@@ChelleBeeby definitely check your junk email too, and let me know if you don’t get an email by tomorrow. If you already own the Color Catalogs, you can upgrade for just $7 instead of $45!! But only until end of Dec. Reach out to me via email if you get stuck and I’ll send your code directly.
@@SarahRenaeClark unfortunately when I bought it, that code took it down to $28 despite already having the two colour catalogues 😕
I love both the color catalogs! They are incredibly helpful when I get color "blocked." I also love using them as a comparison to my Copic markers when it comes to colored pencils, as they are newer to me. They help me understand a little better the different color ranges.
Speaking of the color palette and the color wheel, I have a question. I struggle to determine Blue-Violets (which seem to be missing in colored pencils a bit) and some Yellow Greens in colored pencils. As with Copic Markers, they organized that for me. Do you have any tips, especially for someone who is very OCD? I am constantly second-guessing if I have the right color family. Thank you so much for this video and such wonderful inspiration!
I second-guess my grouping a lot too- because honestly, there is no “line” where one group stops and another starts. It’s a continuous transition between groups, so it comes down to your own discretion.
I often resort my pencils, but at a certain point, you just have to make a decision and try to be ok with what you have decided. I know that’s a really hard thing if you’ve got OCD!
@@SarahRenaeClark It is so helpful to know that I am not alone in this. And yes they do all blend and color can be so interpretive. I have been sitting for a couple months doing swatches and thinking that since I am not a pro, that there is no way they are right. (Which is the wrong kind of thinking.) I have been frozen instead of having fun coloring and that ends today! Thank you for that sound advice. You are always so helpful and it is much appreciated.
I love the aesthetic color palettes I found on pinterest. I mostly do digital art so it's more fun to use color palettes (I don't have a lot of colored pencils that match the colors, but I have a lot of pinks for some reason)
What about how would you use these for watercolors?
CAN THESE COLOR PALETTES WORK ( OR ALMOST MATCH UP) WITH CASTLE ARTS SUPPLIES PENCILS, CREYART PENCILS OR OTHER BRANDS OF PENCILS? I OWN THESE BRANDS-THE OTHERS YOU MENTION ARE WAY OUT OF MY BUDGET. TY
I don’t have them in my swatch books, but there’s a blank book included in The Color Companion so you can try to match them yourself and write the pencil numbers in
@@SarahRenaeClark THANK YOU
Thank you! Very helpful.
Can the full package, with the cubes, be shipped to Europe? And how long is the shipping time?
I have a distribution center in UK that fulfills my Europe orders, so it’s fairly fast. Europe will have extra customs import fees.
I need to order some black widows the colors are so random and not in other sets.
Hello Sarah I have a question for you. I am wanting to get your color catalogs and possibly the other one as well and I was curious what is the difference between color catalog 1 and color catalog 2 are. Is there a difference?
The selection of palettes is completely different. The functions are the same.
So I just received the colour cubes (which are stunning) and just bought the colour catalogue etc. I truly struggle with colours and am wondering if you could do a video where you choose a colouring page from a more intricate/complicated book (like a Kerby Rosanes for example) and show us your process? Would you choose more than one palette? On a page with a ton of different images I would use more than five or six colours. I'm not sure if I'm being clear with what I'm trying to ask.... sigh
I actually have a video coloring Kerby’s fish page where I show my process, exactly as you’ve described!
I don't have a computer or printer. What would be a good comparable hard copy to get?
I purchased the catalogs and companions but i'm confused on the companions, what are the numbers next to the blank boxes for?
They are the numbers of each color from the set listed on the front of that companion! There are instructions on the second page
wherer can i fend my onwe color palette
I use color palettes for knitting and crochet blankets
For coloring I do like my prismacolor but I also include some of my polychromos and now the New Castle arts 120 collection so soft and creamy that I don't have to use up my prismas in the coloring books and they have a different range of colors. For my art though I am truly a Derwent lightfast girl and I love my pollys and Caren dache
5:07 how did u make it sound like a poetry
I am feeling very frustrated because I recently ordered your entire Color Cube/Catalogue/Companion Set and then emailed your Customer Service Dept. because I had an important question about how the Color Companion worked but never heard back beyond getting an automatic canned email response. I don't understand how you can continue to market and sell your $100 product without offering any customer support behind it. Really disappointing! ☹😖
And no response here after a year. Not good 😢
Would love it but not affordable, any more coupons?
yes i find i use the same colours. yellows, blues, greys I need to expand and get creative
The color catalog comes in a volume 1 and a volume 2. Does volume 2 have all new pallettes, or will it have a lot of duplicate palettes from volume 1 with some or all new palettes added to it?
They are a completely new set of palettes- so 250 in each volume, 500 in total if you buy both as a bundle- which also opens up a discount on the companion
Informative. Thanks
really love the color catalog idea!! are both catalogs unique? or is catalog 2 a revised version of 1?
Both are unique
I did some colored pencil drawings with only 2 colors, plus a white pencil
The only pallet I used was orange and teal in short advert because it was inspired by mad Max and I really just want get more creative with it rather than just using a good standard
Bonjour Sarah j'ai acheté les deux cube je courais me procuré les volume 1,2,3,4 compagnon en volume ses t il possible merci
Hi Sarah, I bought both of the catalogs (love them btw they’re even great for picking nail polish combinations) but I never got an email with the discount coupon😢. Is too late to get the discount?
Email me and we’ll organize something!
@@SarahRenaeClark Thank you so much, I’m sending that email today!
Pena que para o Brasil fique tão caro! 😢
Hi Sarah: Do you have a catalog that I can purchase that is not a digital file? I would like the actual catalog, for I don’t want one that I have to print.
Sorry not at this stage! The cost of getting it manufactured is too high that I would have to charge too much at this stage
I am about to ask a really dumb quesiton here but do I need a tablet to use the Color Catalog or can I use your color catalog on my desktop computer?
You can use it on the computer too. Not a dumb question!
Can the color palette be downloaded to a desktop or must it be to a mobile device?
It can be on desktop too
I just purchased my copy of the color catalog + companion set. I can't wait start using it. Problem is I have no Adult coloring books. The children coloring books are too simply in my opinion. Tried it and I'm losing motivation.
I use blue and purple together i sometimes only use two or three colors i sometimes use clothes color for my coloring pages
Hello I tried to purchase the color catalog companion, and it’s $45? I already have the color catalog volume two and I cannot figure out how to get the discount? Thank you
Send me an email with your original order number and we'll get the coupon to you for the discount :)
I don’t know where to find my order number.
Yay. Me in a nutshell. Thank you.
Wow, making tge Color Catalog and the Companion must have been a lot of work. Wish you'd spelt colour this way though!
There are 2 versions included when you download. It includes both “The Color Catalog” and “The Colour Catalogue” 😉
@@SarahRenaeClark Right on!!!👍😆
I've purchased both Color Catalogs. Is there also the Companion for purchase or do I need it?
Yes, and if you send me an email I can still give you the coupon to get the companions for $7 if you’ve already purchased both catalogs instead of paying $45. The companion is well worth it if you find yourself using the brands that are included.
@@SarahRenaeClark OK, I'll look for your email address.
I deleted my email with the discount for the companion in error . I recently purchased the full color catalog. Can you please help me get the discount again? Thank you.
Of course! Send me an email at hello@sarahrenaeclark.com and I’ll work something out 😊
@@SarahRenaeClark thank you so much
HELP! I’m a bit slow with computers, I bought the color catalog a couple months back and I can’t remember how to access it! Could anybody help me?
Send an email to hello@sarahrenaeclark.com and we can get you reconnected
