    Cadbury Purple Cardstock

    I am making my own wedding invitations and my colour is a deep purple - like cadbury chocolate purple. I cant find cardstock anywhere to match this colour. Can anyone help?

    Have a look here I think that Jubilee or Grape Crush look like good matches?

    I think the best thing would be to ask a sponsor directly if they can suggest a match as they will be able to see it 'in real life'.

    Hi,

    we stock the entire Colour Core range of colours.would you like me to buy a bar of Cadburys and do a colour match for you? It wouldn't be any trouble and I guess I would the just have to eat the chocolate. I wouldn't want it go go to waste after all.

    Regards
    Moira

    Someone described Stampin Up's Concord Crush as Cadbury Blue to me - might be worth a look?

    Hi,

    I did the deed and the best match from Colour Core is Valiant Violet.

    Fairywings can confirm this as she was in the shop helping me do the colour match but I'm afraid I had already eaten the chocolate so she didn't get a bit.

    Regards
    Moira

    Can you not just print the colour card on your printer? That's what I do if I want an exact match. You could use a plain card or even textured white card and play around until you have exactly the right colour match.

    Concord Crush or Rich Razzleberry are the closest I can test for you if you want ?
