I never tried it, but have thought of it. I know that my paint store matched the red of a college logo from a framed picture when my mom painted the bathroom. They should be able to!

They can match paint to anything, I bought a pair of sheets and took them in and got an exact match. It works great. Jean

I stamped a few things on my girlfriend's wall with Mellow Moss so her painter could match the color. It worked very well.

Yes they can; best way is to take a sheet of cardstock in. The bigger surface helps. My mom now makes fun of me because we are out shopping and I use SU colors to discribe things. It's bad when you buy a shirt and you think hummm reminds me of something; oh my delight in life stamp set!

I took in a sheet of Mellow Moss and our Lowes couldn't catch it exact enough for the machine but they still did an excellent job on the match! I love my Mellow Moss bathroom!

The stamp room is next and I'm thinking Certainly Celery or Barely Banana will look awesome.


Cheers,

Ummm...cool carribean and certainly celery for a bathroom...nice and breezy. But have you checked out the InColors for 07/08? The two blues are very yummy paint colors. The Wasabit isn't so bad for paint either.
