Will the real Brocade Blue please stand up?

OK, has anyone had a problem with their Brocade Blue cardstock? I just noticed that my Brocade Blue paper is not the right shade. I have a whole pack of 12 x 12 (not counting the 5 sheets I just cut up for my workshop tomorrow!), the two pieces of 12 x 12 that came in my Stampin' Memories add-on kit, and the three sheets of 8.5x11 that just arrived in a RR assortment I ordered. All of it is a more grayish-blue than the ink pad AND my previous stash of the paper. Have you guys seen this problem? I'm going to have to use it in my ws tomorrow anyway, but I'm hoping no one will notice that it's not quite the same color as the ink!

I know SU corrected some color drift a while back, when I was a customer...is that what's going on now, I wonder? I have a query in to my upline, but I was just wondering if I'm a) crazy; b) colorblind; or c) too nitpicky. Well, probably all of the above, but I know Brocade Blue when I see it and this ain't it! :o

I called SU about this very same thing last month and they told me that they had changed the color of Brocade Blue. I am sooooo unhappy about this!! It does not match the ink, nor does it look anywhere near as pretty as the original shade. All of my customers who use this color have noticed and they are all very unhappy. I emailed DS and called them, but I don't know if SU will do anything.

A real bummer ...
