I LOVE the Color Catalogs! I have both volumes and my only regret is that I didn’t order them both at the same time. They are perfect! I am a card maker and this makes my cards look amazing! If I have an item that is the main focus of the card- I just match that color to a color combination and I start creating. It sames me so much time. I no longer struggle wondering what will work! This is a game changer! Thank you for putting this together! You make my cards look great! ★★★★★ Kathy Jo Camacho (verified owner) This has taken all the guess work out of choosing colors and made coloring less stressful. I used to agonize over color palettes for my work but no more. And I find my color palette is broader and I am using a wider array of colors now plus experimenting with techniques because I am no longer obsessing over my colors. Thank you Sarah! ★★★★★ Charity Starrett (verified owner) The Color Catalog is the best tool I have, besides my color pencils. It makes color selection so much faster and better. The Color Catalog is very easy to use and search through the various options of holidays, seasons, landscapes, topics, etc. You can print out individual color palettes and resize each on your printer to what works best for you. Being able to swatch your own pencils to the color palettes makes such a difference. I never do any art work without The Color Catalog ★★★★★ Nancy J (verified owner) I’ve just purchased my first home, and I’ve been nervous about decorating! I’ve always been worried that my tastes were too weird or I’d pick accent colors that clashed instead of complimented. The Color Catalog has really helped me feel confident about my choices! I’ve picked color palettes for 4 rooms in my house and have used the colors to match my existing furniture and to pick out accents and paint colors. I’m so glad I found the Color Catalog! ★★★★★ Brittany H (verified owner) I purchased the Color Catalog bundle and I looooove it!! As an artist, I work with resin, oils and with alcohol inks. I would often get bogged down in color choices and combos. This system has allowed me to pin point color combos quickly and make use of colors that I traditionally wasn’t using. ★★★★★ Kimberly (verified owner)

Choosing colors just became even more fun. For the first time ever, the color inspiration from Color Catalog is available to hold IN YOUR HANDS, as the Color Cube®. Just like the original Color Catalog, Color Cube® comes in 2 volumes, each book containing the 250 color palettes from the original collections, but in a new card format.
Experience the Color Catalog in a whole new way
Each card features the image and colors on the front for inspiration, and then features the colors again on the back, right up to the edge of the card. The back also includes the hex codes for graphic designers or digital artists, as well as darker and lighter shades of each color to help you choose those too.
You can grab your favorites to compare, match the colors right up against whatever you are working on, or even clip them to your work to come back to later.
With the Color Catalog, Companion and the new Color Cube®, there’s no reason to ever struggle with choosing colors again.

You can include your suggestions for new brands to be included in the survey here. Existing customers will be given access to new brands as they are added, at no extra cost.
Colors will vary between different screens, different devices, different printers and different brands of pencils or markers. Furthermore, because colored pencils come in limited ranges, not every color has a matching pencil, so I’ve provided what I believe is the closest match possible with each range, based on the manufacturers swatches, the actual products, and my own printed swatches and palettes. The hex codes, RGB & CMYK values are based on the original colors from the digital Color Catalog, not the printed Color Cube™.
Color Cube:
The box measures 134mm x 134mm x 134mm (approx. 5.275”)
The cards are 105mm x 105mm (approx. 4.133”)

I’d been waiting to purchase The Complete Color Catalog Bundle and I’m sorry I didn’t get it sooner. With no professional training, color choices are hard. This bundle makes it so easy. The Color Catalog Companion is a must so just take the plunge and buy the whole set! You won’t be sorry.
★★★★★ Jan Ros (verified owner)
One of the smartest and best purchases I’ve ever made! This Catalog, both volumes and the Companion, are the most comprehensive tool I’ve ever had to help me easily and quickly be able to choose a palette for ANY picture. Not only that, but with the Companion I can even know exactly which set of pencils or markers I want to use for the palette and have an EXACT color match! I love this thing!!! So do I recommend it??? HELL YES It’s absolutely a “Shut up and take my money!” product 100%
★★★★★ Melanie Hawkins (verified owner)
The Colour Catalogue and Coloured Pencil Companion have proven to be a terrific purchase and brilliant value for money for the incredible amount of work that has gone into producing them. They are fantastically easy to use and it is very exciting to look at all the colour possibilities. I found that they gave this beginner colourist a lot of confidence in that even if my technique is not yet great, the colours still look great together. Having the Pencil Companion also supports confidence by helping you pick the right colours from your pencil stash. By taking the stress out of ‘which colours and which pencils’, it leaves one free to focus on the creativity and fun of playing with the colours knowing that it is all going to look good at the end. I am delighted with the product.
