So, instead of a card today, how about some Blog Candy!!! What I have to offer you is one brand new SU set — Define Your Life. I’ll edit this post to add a photo in the morning.
So, to sign up for Define Your Life — just comment below, and tell me what color cardstock you seem to be grabbing for cards at this time of year!

Thanks much!!! Good luck!!!

At this time of the year I love rose and a fresh green color as cardstock color.
I have to pick a color. I just made a card using yellow and red and it was really pretty and bright. What fun blog candy.
Sharon, I love your blog & follow it closely! Thank you so much for sharing your creative work! The colors I’ve been using lately are pink’s & brown’s! thank you for the chance to win this blog candy!
Craft all year round 😀
Hi Sharon,
I get your blog on google reader, and I’ve even cased one of your cards 🙂
So for the moment I’m working on baby cards for a show, so my colors are Bashful blue and Pretty in Pink
Greetings,

I’ve been in a barely banana mood lately. Not sure why. I love it though!
I keep picking up purple. Oh and orange. And uhm, green. Oh I can’t forget blue! And red. I’m not so good at picking just ONE color that I use most coz I love them ALL. LOL!
I stocked up on Cool Caribbean last year and right now that seems to be what I am going back to over and over again.
Thanks for the chance to win!
Just love the wonderful ideas on your blog. You are such an inspiration. I’m really enjoying Gable Green right now–so bright, and fresh and Springlike.
A close second is Blush Blossom–it’s become a real favourite that I reach for often and goes with so much.
Thanks for such a fun contest.
Margaret
My last few projects have been beach or nautical theme, so I have been using Soft Sky as my main color. Thanks for the chance at blog candy!
No matter what time of the year it is I find myself grabbing for pink….can’t get enough of it I’m afraid:0))
At the moment my favorite colour is rose. O.k. 😉 for springtime I also love a softly green.
Rainy greetings from Germany

I seem to be using green a lot at the moment, all types, from mossy to “dirty”.
Maybe it is the spring – summer type feeling going on…
Jules (UK)
I really don’t have one color I use more than others. I just pick up whatever I feel like at the moment or what would go best with the stamps I am using. I love all colors! Thanks for a chance to win!
I’ve been using Groovy Guava as much as I can while its still around — I’m going to miss it!!
Love my plum and old olive … my fav color combination – and thanx for the inspiration and chance at t’riffic blog candy!
At this moment, I have been using sky blue and rose red. Look great together. All that could change since I really love pinks and browns. Oh I can’t decide. Thanks for the chance for blog candy.
Right now I’ve been using tempting turquoise, pink, yellow, white and green. All the bright spring colors. Just loooove your blog and have it set up in my Outlook under RSS feeds. Thanks for sharing all your wonderful creations and the chance to win the blog candy.
I’ve been using a lot of kraft color for my card base – sounds boring, but I love how I can mount something bright or soft on it and the colors of the stamping are always the focal point.
I’ve been grabbing whatever I fancy at the time – a whole variety of colours. It always depends on my mood 🙂
Thanks for the chance at blog candy. I only recently found this site and it’s great – thanks for sharing.
LOVE your site. My favorite CS is Bright colors of Pink and Green.
Wow, Sharon, what great candy! That is an awesome set! I love the brighter greens this time of year!
I have been using Soft Sky a lot lately–It looks elegant with black and springy with certainly celery but always seems like a fresh choice. I need to restock before it’s gone. 🙂 Thank you for the chance at blog candy and also for the wonderful inspiration you provide on your blog.
The colour that I seem to be going for lately is the celery greens (sorry I don’t have the SU cardstock). They have such a fresh feel to them and we have been waiting a long time for spring to arrive here in Canada.
I seem to be reaching for brighter colors right now but, also neutrals like Black, Confetti White, Whisper White & Kraft.
What? No ten minute card? I could have used a ten minute card this morning but I can take blog candy instead. Especially since i really want that set.
I have been going for black a lot to make my images/sentiments pop more. And it goes with any color. Other than that, I haven’t been picking any color over another more often. (It’s usaully whatever cardstock I have more of at the time! lol)
I’ve been grabbing River Rock a lot lately. It’s a great neutral for card bases!
I know it’s odd – but I keep grabbing pumpkin pie – even though it doesn’t seem very springy! Thanks for the chance to win!!
Gotta say I love the pretty in pink and certainly celery. They look great together.
Hard to answer that question, but if I had to, I’d say turquoise. Frequently I choose my cs to match a patterned paper that I’m using. Groovy Guava is definitely one that I’ve enjoyed, though. Thanks again for your inspiration, Sharon!
I love your work!!! Bashful blue and Almost Amethyst!!
That would be pink and or yellow, combined with blue and green.
I am drawn to the stampin up in colours…they are so fresh and vibrant for the spring…love your blog…thanks for all the inspiration…Rebecca
I have been reaching for red very often…I need to lighten up I think?
Right now I’m picking greens and pinks – certainly celery, green galore, river rock along with pretty in pink. Love looking at your blog – it’s my daily treat.
Wow, what a generous give-a-way! The color I seem to grab for most lately is Pretty in Pink, with Certainly Celery being a close second. I’m not sure why I grab pink since I really don’t care for the color in general…so it must be the season. Thanks for the chance to win!
Hi Sharon! Hmmm…. I think I am always grabbing Soft Sky. I have got to stock up on it before it’s gone forever!!
Oh, I love that set. My favorite color of paper at the moment is brown. Thanks for the chance.
What an awesome, and generous, blog candy Sharon! I’ll have to say any shade of purple is my in color right now. I did make a card with Pretty In Pink last night so maybe I’ll be coming addicted to that 🙂
I’ve been working on a couple of Mother’s Day gift sets, and seem to be using a lot of pretty in pink to go with my soft spring flowers!!
My fav is Soft Sky……I’ll be sooooooo sad when it retires!
Woo Hoo! Let’s see…I **love** wild wasabi….
The color I have been reaching for is Bashful Blue. Thanks for the chance for Candy! Love your site.
I love your site! I know I’ve said it before…
I still love the In Colors for this year, but use the Purely Pom almost always.
I am into Groovy Guava right now for some reason…I love Certainly Celery as my all time favourite colour though.
Hi Sharon – I seem to gravitate towards SU certainly celery at this time of year. It’s such a fresh spingy colour I think :o)
I tend to reach for blues or pinks………….anytime of year.
I am drawn to certainly celery for my cards lately. Just love this soft shade and it coordinates with so many other colors. Thanks for the blog candy. Would love this set.
Cheryl Sims
This season I keep finding myself using Barely Banana (and I am normally not a yellow lover).
I’m totally into the pinks right now! Love to visit your blog, it’s so makes me want to create!
I find myself reaching for a lot of greens and yellows. Spring is my favorite time of year. I am also reaching for my flower stamps. Thanks for sharing the blog candy and all your creative ideas. Mary
Seems like I’ve been gravitating towards those greens, oranges and yellows….that retro kitchen-y colors! Remember the mushrooms in the kitchens w/oranges and browns…checkered valances?? Yeah, that’s my cards right now. I’m old, huh Ãœ
Tracy
I’ve been using lots of pinks – pretty in pink…rose red (I know it’s not called pink, but I think it’s definitely a dark pink!)
I seem to be doing a lot of Bashful Blue and Chocolate Chip. Thanks for sharing!
As a beginner, your blog has been, and continues to be, of great inspiration, and a source for learning new techniques. Your tutorials are so well done, that I can follow along pretty well. Thanks. Presently I am reaching for River Rock, Real Red, Groovy Guava, and any of the pinks (Real Rose, Pretty in Pink are my favorites) the combos I get are refreshing and bright (at least to me).
Hot pink and lime green! With black for an accent. Sounds hideous, I know, but it actually isn’t if done right, I can’t seem to stay away from it!
I keep grabbing all the greens! I have vowed to take all the green cardstock out of my studio! Lol.
I seem to ALWAYS grab my Real Red Card stock, but with spring in the air. . .I just love Certainly Celery. Thanks for sharing stamps! I hope I win because I never win blog candy!
I loving River Rock at the moment, so versatile you can use it for anything, especially the difficult cards like masculine or super elegant wedding cards.
Whew! I’m glad I didn’t miss the 10 minute challenge! I’ll be sure to make it next week 😉
I think I have been grabbing pinks and greens a lot lately….fresh colours!
I tend to go for the mauves and yellows this time of year they seem to work well together for easter,Mothers day cards . Love your work Sharon
Amazing blog candy that you are offering! I would say that I am reaching for Regal Rose and Certainly Celery these days. Thanks for your inspiration and the chance to win! jmniffer
I’ve been using whatever’s required to clean up all of my scraps. I’m sure that I’ve made over 50 3 X 3 cards!
For me, I seem to be having a panic about losing Purely Pomegranate, and want to use it all the time before it is gone.
OH MY GOODNESS—Define Your Life!!! What absolutely fabulous blog candy!!! My knees are shakin’! I would have to say Soft Sky is one of my favorites….I will be very sad to see it go, just like Cool Caribbean….boohoo!
Thanks for the chance, Sharon, you’re the best!
LeAnne
I stop by your blog everyday & luv to see what you’ve created.
I’d be happy to win some Blog Candy..The colors that I have been reaching for are Groovy Guava & Soft Sky.
I’ve been using pink and greens. Also just used some aqua for a summer project – just reminds me of the beach. Thanks for a chance. I really enjoy blog and thanks for sharing. 🙂
I’m going through my Certainly Celery pack like crazy! Must be wishing for spring, and some green.
Right now I seem to be grabbing just about any shade of pink and greens. I love that combination for springtime. Thanks for the chance to win!
I guess I have been grabbing my pink a lot lately!! Oh, and spring moss too!
Sharon, I really enjoy your blog. I check it out almost daily! LOL! I love your creativeness. Your projects are SO beautiful! My favorite color – or the color I seem to be drawn to right now is periwinkle blue matched with green and a crisp white. I love that combination!
Thanks for a great blog and the opportunity to win that wonderful set! I always love greens.
What a fantastic set for blog candy! I am reaching for Chocolate chip and pretty in pink a lot lately.
Sharon –
Wild Wasabi and Rose Red for me!
Thanks for the chance!
I have to say I have actually been reaching for River Rock lately. I think I am trying to use it as much as possible before it is gone. Thanks for the awesome blog candy opportunity.
At the moment, I seem to always grab white cardstock as the base for my cards, and I then I embellish with patterned papers, paints, other cardstock, flowers, etc.
I tend to use more Soft Subtle colors in spring such as Certainly Celery, Pretty in Pink & Barely Banana. Love your blog!
I am a big fan of all types of spring greens! Love your site. I visit it every day!
Not just at this time of year but ALL year I’ve been grabbing red! I didn’t even realize it until I went to grab some more and I realized I’m out! Another SU order will be going out this week I guess!
What a wonderful set to win! My first choice is pink and certainly celery…love the combination! It just seems springy.
Wow, how generous of you!! I’d have to say that I’m reaching for ivory a lot these days. Just a tad more elegant than white, but still bright and fresh
Chocolate Chip or any type of dark brown cardstock seems to be my favourite right now. It’s such a versatile colour. You can pair it up with yellow, orange, pink, green, blue…it’s endless!!
My favorite colors of cardstock year round is taken with teal and tempting turquoise from Stampin Up. Rose red would be another favorite. I love cool colors and really gravitate toward blue. I have to be careful or every room in my house would be painted some shade of blue!
Certainly Celery has been drawing me recently. Also the new Papertrey colors!
It seems that I’ve been going for the Soft Sky and Black….it has a spring feel to it, but makes everything elegant instantly!!
I just want to say that I love your style!!
I seem to be grabbing Tempting Turquoise and that has surprised me. I’m waiting for my latest PTI colors to arrive too and expect that they will partner with the TT really well for some fun summer cards. ~chris
I love anything pink and green this time of year. So fresh and springy.
i love the pastels this time of the year. I read your blog daily and you have some awesome cards and projects. susan
This time of the year I seem to be grabbing for light greens, pinks and purples. Great candy!
I guess I’m jumping straight to summer with turquoise! And it doesn’t even feel like spring here yet!
I’ve been grabbing for a lot of blue lately.
I still use chocolate chip almost on every card somewhere! But, I like tempting turquoise as a bright color!
I am using mostly spring colors… I am sooo tired of the cold I am just wanting spring to actually get here!
For some reason I have been pairing Spring colors with choc chip. It makes a great base. I also love using the pinks and reds.
I have been using a lot of olive and summer sun. Not really Spring colors so much– but bright and sunny I guess!
I check your blog each morning at the office (hard to concentrate on work after that LOL) thanks for sharing your talent AND for this opportunity to win a beautiful set. I’ve been using shades of green – especially green galore. Marta
I love the 10-minute card idea!
All my cards lately include oranges, yellows, or lavender. I sneek in light green here and there, too.
EVERYTHING has polka dots included either in the paper, stamp, or ribbon. I don’t usually do polka dots.
I didn’t even realize it until a friend said, “Boy, all your cards have polka dots. I love it!”
Polka dots just make me smile!
I am and will forever be an Old Olive gal! It just seems to go with everything. Next in line is Pumpkin Pie. But not always with the Olive, or that would get pretty boring!
I wouldn’t say that is very fresh, but chocolate chip is calling to me. Maybe because it works so well with all of my favorite pinks!
It is definitely soft sky and I have to order more before it retires *sigh*
Soft Sky here…I just love the cool color of the blue…it goes with everything. Thanks for the chance Sharon 🙂
I’m going for anything pastel and it doesn’t matter what color, just pastel. 🙂 GREAT candy!!!! Thank you for the chance to win! 🙂
Mmm…candy…I am all over that!
Cardstock colors? It doesn’t matter what time of year it is but my Close to Cocoa and Chocolate Chip are always running low! I think it is my neutral for just about anything!
TFS! And good luck finding 10 minutes today!
I love your blog and all your wonderful ideas!
I am loving Coral and Blush for cardstock colors this spring. I went clothes shopping with my 19 year old daughter, and everything is those colors! I’ve had fun creating with them!
I always seem to grab for Tempting Turquoise, Pink Passion, and Green Galore when spring fever hits! Love those happy colors together.
Wow! That is SOME blog candy!
This week I like Cool Carib (just have a little left!), Green Galore and Wild Wasabi. Makes a cool, relaxed feeling card.
Hi Sharon, I’ve been reaching for the Old Olive and the Cameo Coral. Love the pink and green. Thanks. ~Julie
I saw a combination that I really liked, old olive and regal rose, I made a card using them and I am very pleased. I think I will make a few more designs with that combination. Thank you for the blog candy opportunity!!
I am really loving the bashful blue, real red and certainly celery right now. I guess because I am using alot of the summer picnic paper and the tart and tiny set. Love this stuff!
Shelly
I am in love with Certainly Celery too! I love all shades of green, especially this time of year when everything outside is turning green and beginning a new year of life.
Thanks Sharon for all you do. You give us so much and I truly appreicate it.
Joan
I have just found your blog and really love everything you do. Thanks for everything. Right now, I am probably using more of soft sky, groovy guava and wild wasabi. Will be getting the soft subtles soon and am anxious to use those.
i am reaching for soft sky over and over – also groovy guava. Guess i will be one of those that stock up before they retire this summer… thanks for all the hard work you do for your blog – love it, i am here almost every day!
I’ve been using navy, but mostly because I’m trying to design invitations for our December wedding.
I’ve been reaching a lot for pretty in pink and also kraft paper – maybe not just because of the season, but of the particular stamping phase I’m in! 😀
Thanks for the chance to win!
I just looked at my gallery, and I think the most common color I’ve been using is green (certainly celery or wild wasabi)…it just seems to *go* with everything…..maybe it’s because all the trees are starting to bloom and everything is getting *greener* outside every day…very exciting! 🙂
Gosh, it seems like I’ve been using Wasabi (SU) and Regal Rose (SU) lately. Wish Spring and Mother’s Day that seems to be the main two colors. If I’m not using these, I’m reaching for some blues as well. Love, love, love your blog!!
I keep reaching for pink and green! I just can’t get enough!
Just love your blog. Look forward to seeing the 10 minute Tuesday card next week.
Denise G
My colors are blue and brown — the colors of my new grandson’s nursery. I’ve done a card for my daughter and SIL and lots of thank you’s for her to send out. I’m ready to move onto Mother’s Day and a slight change of color, perhaps pink and brown?
Kathy
I tend to go for two different ones at the moment…pinks and also teal with red!! Fantastic blog candy….so generous of you!
I have been picking up alot of Pretty in Pink & Glorious Green lately. Love the brightness of the 2 colors together. Have to add a bit of purple in there also – tis my most favorite color.
I’ve been using a lot of pretty in pink lately… with certainly celery or chocolate chip.
Thanks for the chance to win blog candy.
I love Pumpkin Pie, I put it with some Mellow Moss yesterday and was pleasantly surprised by the outcome! A piece of Bali Breeze DSP and I had a really great spring card.
I love Certainly Celery right now! Such a nice springy color!
for some reason i’ve been gravitating towards river rock, basic black and whisper white. the black stamping on white, then matted in black or river rock is very striking. so i better look to replenshing my river rock before it is only a memory in SU cardstock choices. 🙂
I’ve been reaching for a light aqua with a soft yellow. Seems spring-y to me right now!
Actually as far as cardstock goes – I have been using white and either doing stamped single layer cards or dry embossed images. The color of ink Ih ave been using the most is probably pinks, greens and blues. Thanks for a chance to win a great set!
My favorite color of cardstock for this time of year is Bashful Blue and Certainly Celery!
When I look at my latest cards I guess light green tones are mostly used.
Thanks for a chance to win! Greetings from Belgium, Annelies
At this time of the year…I love spring colors…I keep reaching for rose red, so saffron, certainly celery and bashful blue…
Great blog candy! I tend to reach for brilliant blue, summer sun and tempting turquoise in hopes to bring sunshine our way. We just had snow last friday so I’m praying for warmer weather soon! Thanks for letting us play!
Thanks for the offer. I am using so much Choc. chip and Blue Bayou. I will have to order lots more before B. Bayou retires. Have a great week!
I’m always reaching for pretty in pink and certainly celery. They just scream spring to me. Thanks for all that you share on your blog. You are very talented and create beautiful things.
Thanks for the chance to win some goodies. I just love celery and pretty in pink this time of year as they remind me of Spring.

I’ve been a big fan of chocolate chip her lately. It goes with any other color and can be used for any occasion. Thanks for the chance to win.
Sara
I tend to reach for chocolate chip more than any other color.
I really enjoy your blog. It has been a great inspiration to me.
YEA! Blog candy, I love this set. Pick me, Pick me!!
My favorite colors this time of year are Certainly Celery (oh wait, I use that all the time) and anything in the pink tones.
Thanks for your wonderful post and creations. You are a get inspiriation.
What a great blog candy item!!! I have been using Pretty In Pink and Chocolate Chip the most lately! This time of year is my favorite because you can use any of the colors. I use mostly soft subtle and bold brights with others mixed in.
Lisa
I really enjoy your blog. You have tons of great ideas for us all. Right now I am reaching for barely banana card stock.
Hi Sharon! Love, love, love your blog. I am constantly reaching for Soft Sky, Not Quite Navy, Kraft…I’ve been in a nautical mood lately. Thanks for offering some blog candy. Like Jody said, you are such an inspiration…I love your work.

Hi, I’m not a particularly “seasonal” crafter, I just pick up whatever I fancy that day. Although I do love spring colours and have to have pink somewhere!! Have a great day. Denise in the UK

Hi
I just started staming and I’m enjoying it very much ,it seems to relax me ..who knew.The color of card stock I’ve been grabbing is Chocolate chip and certainly celery (and I need to get more). I have a limited supplies but it seems to be growing..can’t wait to get more.
I visit your blog often and you have amazing ideas..tfs.
For Spring time I like Pale Plum and Barely Banana or Opulant Orchid and Summer Sun or Elegant Eggplant and Marigold Morning. Can you tell my favorite colors! I love the look of purple and yellow together in any shade. In pastels, the combo is soothing and refreshing. In the darker richer shades, the combos are elegant and rich.
I love using Barely Banana and Certainly Celery or Wild Wasabi or Pretty in Pink and Only Orange. Hooray for Spring!!!!!! Thanks for a chance to win.
But I NEED 10 minute Tuesdays! LOL! I guess a blog candy post will make up for it this time… I seem to grap a lot of chocolate brown lately. But I’m also grabbing a lot of my groovy guava dp, I need to use it up so I can buy more DP!
I’ve just discovered the combo Sahara Sand, Taken With Teal, and Whisper White. Love it!
lol…for me it’s all shades of purple, but that’s for most of the year as well! And a little bit of pink doesn’t hurt either! lol Thanks for the chance to win your blog candy!
I REALLY REALLY want spring to come, so I keep on grabbing certainly celery & apricot appeal. Thanks for the great blog candy!
I keep grabbing sky and wasabi, and any color that goes with it! Thanks for the chance to win!
I absolutely love Groovy Guava and will really miss it when it is gone. Will have to stock up. I also love So Saffron and the Tea Party DP.
I always seem to be using brown card stock! I really need to widen my horizons, lol!
Thanks for the chance to win, Sharon!!
~Hugs, Deb

kay
What a great blog you have! I’m going to have to try the card holder..I’ve been looking for something to display the cards that I receive..this is great. Thanks! My favorite color I’ve been pulling out lately is orange…just so sunshiny and springy. Thanks so much for the chance to win.
Certainly Celery is my color of the day! It’s so fresh and spring-like, plus it counts as a neutral, in my cardmaking. Can’t wait to start 10 minute Tuesdays!
Hey Sharon! Thanks so much for the great blog candy! I would LOVE to have that set but I can’t seem to force myself to spend all of the money for it! Yikes! Anyway, I have used Old Olive on almost ALL of my cards for the past few months. It’s crazy how much I use it. It’s just such a beautiful color! Thanks again Sharon! You are a huge inspiration to us!
Hi Sharon,
I think this time of year the pastels are in – spring is here! I especially love pale shades of green, blue and purple.
Have a great day! Thanks for sharing your awesome work.
Right now I’m in a green and blue mood…so that’s what I’ve been reaching for most.
Thanks for the chance to win!
Charmaine
I have been grabbing white and black because I am doing formal wedding invites…
Hope you find 10 free minutes soon!
I tend to be reaching for Soft Sky and Blush Blossom cardstock although not usually together. Thanks for the chance at some blog candy and thanks for sharing your talent with all of us.
Love your blog! I’m usually grabbing for So Saffron.
I am reaching for bright summery colors like purely pomegranate and groovy guava (colors that will be surely missed in a couple months)
Sharon,
I love your card display board and thanks for the instructions. I have a new craft room and you have solved one of my problems!
Right now I just can’t get enough of River Rock and Soft Sky. They just fit for any type of card- I may even make my Christmas cards using the current In Colors. Gonna stock up before they go away.
Love your site, I check it out every day.
Stay cool,
Diane
Lost in the 60’s
Wow, sounds like a neat set to have. I have been using a lot of peach and cream and soft sage green.
Karen Wallace
I keep finding myself looking at your wonderful site frequently. I’ll need to subscribe to email notification! Wow! Define your Life…what a cood stamp set. I find myself grabbing groovey guava these days!
Im so glad I found your blog… I love it!
This time of year I always find myself reaching for fresh spring colours, mostly greens and pinks.
its pink and light green for me 🙂
I still grab for my all time favorite that I use year around – Certainly Celery – love it, love it, love it. Also love pinks. It’s hard for me to make a card without some pink on it somewhere!!! Thanks for the chance to win and for sharing your ideas with us! I love your blog.
Yellow and green–any shade of both! 🙂
i am loving Wild Wasabi right now. I know I am going to have to stock up before it goes bye bye.
Hugs
Nic
O came for the 10 minute card but this is great. I’minto pinks and certainly celery.
I need help with 10 minute cards and will definitely be back for that. I reach for So Saffron and Regal Rose. They are so pretty in vintage floral cards. Thanks for the chance to win.
I have been reaching for alot of Groovy Guava lately. It seems perfect for this time of year.
I’m always grabbing for Certain Celery! I just love it!! Thanks Cynthia
Oh, I love the Define Your Life set and haven’t purchased it yet. It’d be soooooo cool to win it!!
I’m always reaching for Chocolate Chip. It just goes so well with pretty much any color.
I’ll be keepin’ my fingers crossed! Take care – Regina Davis
I seem to be making things with blue-greens (aquas) and pinks lately. Everything I am creating has some shade of aqua in it? I am off to do something black and white for a change 🙂
hey sharon i love purple andgroovy guva i have made 3 baby cards with it this month thank you michelle
I seem to be choosing Garden Green and Pink Passion lately. It seems to be reminding me of warm weather (and strawberries and watermelon) and I’ve been using quite a bit of BG Sultry and it goes nicely with some of the designs from that line! Thanks for this awesome opportunity
Cool Caribbean!
Wow! That’s extremely generous of you. The color that I seem to be grabbing is pink which is a scream because I’m not usually a pink person. Love your blog…it’s so inspiring. Thanks.
I guess lately Cool Caribbean is gravitating towards my projects…..maybe it’s my secret desire to have a pool in my yard! Secret because we could never afford it, but I can swim in Caribean paper for now!
I keep grabbing for green. We have had a long winter up here in Minnesota and I’ve been patiently waiting for things to green up!
Hmmm, I’m usually an SU kinda gal BUT recently I’ve been grabbed by the PapertreyInk colors of Sweet Blush, Berry Sorbet, and Aqua Mist!
Thanks for all your sharing and keep up the very inspiring blog!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
~Lana B~
I love the pastels this time of year, probably yellow or green (for the base anyway). And what blog candy! I’ve had my eye on define your life for a while now.
Wow, what a great blog candy, I have been waiting to get this set for a while and still don’t have it.
I love your blog! My favorite colors right now are teal and browns. Love the warmy feeling of them. It’s still cold here in Eugene OR!
Thanks for sharing the fabulous blog candy! I’m really drawn to shades of apricot right now; it just feels like the perfect spring color to me!
I love the new SU colors. I really like Groovy Guava for this time of year.
Hi Sharon – what a generous person you are! The color I seem to grabbing these days is my favorite standby – brocade blue. Ok, that or Mellow Moss! 🙂
Love your ideas!
Wow! I just found your blog and you are offering a great treat!!! I love the soft sky in color that will soon be gone. What a fab site! Love it and all the fun ideas!
Cool Caribbean is still my favorite! I really enjoy your blog, and it is so nice of you to offer such great blog candy!
Hi Sharon!
Wow thanks for a chance to win such wonderful blog candy! I have been using alot of pinks and soft sky! Love your blog and beautiful cards!
Thank you so much for sharing your creations. Right now I love pretty in pink and barely banana.
Heidi
Just love your inspirational cheery blog!
I’m stuck in the aqua/yellows for cardstock.

Hi,
I recently discovered your blog and always look forward to seeing the beautiful cards you make. Thank you for all the tutorials too! So, for paper I keep reaching for – it’s Bashful Blue! Probably because it matches my favorite designer paper (Summer Picnic).
Purple, definitely purple.
I’m really into greens this time of year – so Certainly Celery or Wild Wasabi are my picks.
What’s really pathetic is that I love to use pink for any season of the year! And any shade of pink!!!
Certainly Celery with any other color. I just love that color. Thanks so much for offering such great blog candy. Still love your blog.
The color I’m using alot right now is groovy guava
I’ll be so sad at the end of July when it’s gone
Jean
What a great blog candy!!! I guess I’m grabbing for Wild Wasabi or River Rock right now. 🙂 Love your blog!!!
I keep grabbing chocolate chip – it goes with EVERYTHING!
I really like the in colors this year. I’ve been using Soft Sky alot.
I keep grabbing orange and adding a little green and blue with a splash of pink. THanks for the candy chance!
I’m fairly new to the blog scene, and this is my first time signing up for blog candy. The color combinations I’m using most are purely pomegranate with certainly celery and purely pomegranate with regal rose and elegant eggplant. Love your blog!
Oooh! Blog candy! I’ve been using a lot of Groovy Guava, River Rock and Mellow Moss lately. I think Mellow Moss is my favorite SU green color.
Tempting Turqouise seems to keep running low on me this time of year.
i grab certainly celery for almost everything!
I love love love basic gray and pretty in pink, they were scraps that ended up next to each other and just sparked my imagination!
Thanks for the chance for goodies!!
Tracey
I would have to say pink and brown also. Thanks for the many great ideas.
I’ve been grabbing for pumpkin pie. I love that color.
I really love using neutrals like Kraft and Caramel for bases, but for spring I also like pastels! Thanks for the opportunity for this candy!
I guess I’m the only one who held back some Buckaroo Blue for some summer denim cards. I love celery, but I’m ready to make some summer fun cards and I see them done in soft denim blue for some reason. Thought I’d work on some Bar-b-que cards and some Fourth of July cards. Last month I made a heap of spring cards that I am now using and I’m ready to move on to something new. Love reading everyone’s lcolor choices.

I love shades of purple and greens. Thanks for the chance to win.
Soft Sky is getting a lot of use in my craft room this time of year! Thanks for the inspirational blog and the chance for blog candy!
Joanne L.
This past week I have been inspired by the pink/brown combo. I’ve lost track of how many cards I’ve made with those colors. I think I’ll try blue/brown next…
Great blog! I’m always after blue, green and white.

Love your blog! At the moment, I keep reaching for Soft Sky, or for any shade of pink!
Hi Sharon, your work is always so elegant, I get so much inspiration from many of your cards. Right now, here in Oregon, we are having record cold temps – it’s the same in April as it was in January, doggone it!! But my colors have been inching towards spring – Always Amethyst, Blush, Soft Sky, Pretty in Pink, Red Rose or Pomegranate (not necessarily all at once). Anyway, thank you again!!
I’m still lovin’ Chocolate Chip… combining that with almost anything else is just a fab combination!
What wonderful blog candy! For colors, I am stuck on Soft Sky. With anything. But I just can’t get away from this color! Unless it’s to combine it with Blue Bayou, but that’s too wintery. For now I’m moving toward Soft Sky with a hint of celery and other soft subtles…
These days I find myself reaching for blues and greens.
Certainly Celery:o) Can’t get enough of that color!
I find myself reaching for soft pinks and greens lately. It’s spring, and my cards are reflecting that!
Thanks for sharing 🙂
Wild Wasabi – oh, I wish it was in the regular line!!
I seem to be going for a little bit everything!! ha!
I’m hooked on old olive…I just love it and can’t get enough!
Love your blog! Thanks for an opportunity to win the awesome blog candy!
Kim Hannan [email protected]
I have been using rose red and so saffron quite a bit lately. Thanks for the great giveaway!
Sharon, your cards are awesome as always.
Lately, it seems I am using greens and browns a lot.
I like to use patterned paper a lot so my cardstock is usually determined from the colors in the paper-most always with White as my base.
Bev J. (Maxell-SCS)
Groovy Guava has got me hooked…Thanks for a chance at some great blog candy! And all the inspiring ideas from your site!
Oddly enough, I have run out of Real Red. I don’t know why because I sure do love the purple family …hmmm I think I’ll make a card now…
Favorite colors are so hard to choose but right now I love using wild wasabi. I think it reminds me of the green lawns I hope to see really soon!!!
Thanks for the chance to win this beautiful set.
Certainly celery is one of the colors I can combine with quite a few other colors. Thanks for the chance to win.
I’m always gravitating towards Groovy Guava or Berry Sorbet (by Papertrey). Love those colors.
Anything green !
I must concur with “anything green.” The card I made yesterday, however was More Mustard. I don’t yet have the Embrace Life set, and would LOVE to win it! May those random generator Gods shine their light on me! LOL.
Love your stuff – thanks so much for sharing, even if I DON’T win the set!
Nancy
Love your blog…I am a daily stalker!
Wild Wasabi seems to be the color I am constantly replacing. Sure am gonna miss it when its gone!
Lisa
Chocolate Chip is my go to color.
I’ve been grabbing a pretty pale yellow alot. It’s from walmart so it doesn’t have an actual name. But I just love it. Goes with so many yummy colours. That, or browns.
And that is so sweet of you to give Blog Candy!
Definitely the orange! Too fun! Thanks for the chance to win! WHOA!
I am loving certainly celery right now. Come to think of it, I am always loving Certainly Celery.
I still seem to grab for the chocolate cardstock. But with spring colors to brighten it up as this winter seems to keep on going… Thanks!
I am using Groovy Guava a lot lately. And So Saffron. And Certainly Celery. Anything to brighten up the cold days we are still having!! Thanks!
Wow, Sharon…lots of people want this set. Thanks for everything. I had to check out my gallery and don’t really see ~a~ color. I gues springy looking colors.
My favorite right now is Pumpkin Pie. Who woulda thunk it? I couldn’t stand the color when I started stamping but I have seen so many pretty samples and now I’m hooked. Sharon, your blog is awesome and I so enjoy stopping by each day.
Certainly celery is always a favorite esp. this time of year when things are getting greener outside!
As always, thanks for sharing through your blog.
Renee
Hi Sharon! What wonderful blog candy! I haven’t had much time to stamp lately, but I seem to always tend to go for a white based card and I am really digging on Papertrey Inks new colours; all of them, lol!!! Their perfect match line is just wonderful! Thanks for the opportunity:)
I am constantly grabbing the blue & yellow cardsstock this time of the year.Maybe it’s the blue spring sky and yellow forsythia buds I am seeing that are making me enjoy these colors.
Lots of pinks and browns.
WOW! I have had this set on my wish list. I enjoy your blog Sharon, and I can’t wait to see you in Sayner in 10 days! WOOHOO! Anyway, I always seem to grab colors out of the Earth Elements family. That’s where I feel ‘safe’. ~ Peggy F
I have been picking up bright colors, green and yellow and the best standby – PINK. Love your work.
I have been gravitating toward green. Old Olive and Certainly Celery are my favorites. Thanks for all of the great info on your blog and for the great opporunity to win a fun set!
Springtime and I’m using yellows and greens…….I love your beautiful and helpful website and look daily – Thank you for being a major inspiration to all of us!
Dee
Right now its is certainly celery and soft sky
Love your blog. Such wonderful cards! Thanks for sharing!
I’m new to this art and initially I started with colored CS but now I’m sticking to white CS as the base. For layering, I mostly go for the brights.
I always like pinks and purples, but this time of year I tend to use more pastel versions, like Pretty In Pink and Lavendar Lace. Thank you for the opportunity to win such a great set! It’s been on my list since it showed up in the catty. And I love your blog! Thanks for all of the inspiration.
I’ve been using a lot of Papertrey white with various greens and accent colors for spring.
I love yellows in the spring. But I also like apricot.
Hmmm, it’s hard to pick just one but I’d have to say Pretty in Pink, I’m having a baby girl sometime in May so pink is on the brain.
I go for certainly celery and green is not my favorite color at all. I don’t know why but always reach for that. Love your blog.
Pink – my favorite color. But I also have been wanting to use some blue….and green…and yellow….and I just bought some yummy ribbon at Michael’s today to do a black and white card.
What a generous blog candy offering! Thanks!
Sharon – what awesome blog candy! As winter SLOWLY fades from the Pacific NW (jiminy cricket, we had snow this weekend!) I reach for green. Along the lines of: “Behind every blade of grass is its very own angel that forever whispers, grow grow grow.” (The Talmud) – Certainly Celery is always a fav – recently I have fallen in love with Old Olive and I want something pinkish growing on the end of the green… Oh! and anything that goes well with Real Red!
‘Love your blog…thanks for sharing your creativity!
Well, I’m still making baby cards with Gable Green & Chocolate Chip…very pretty! Thanks for this chance to win sweet candy…I’d LOVE to play with some new stamps!!
~Brenda H.
I have to have orange-any shade or texture-and boo hoo-Bazzill is discontinuing one of my favs-carrot cake.
I would love to win this blog candy. It is a great gift. Thanks for giving great blog candy. I choose lots of different paper but Spring does bring out the certainly celery color often. It is just such a happy color. Again, thanks and I hope I get to be the lucky one.
Retired Heather
I’m reaching for Tempting Turquoise and Chocolate Chip. I think I’m being influenced by the comforter sets I’m seeing in the Sunday ads. Thanks for for offering blog candy! I’m keeping my fingers crossed.
Awhile back I ordered two packs of summer sun and it turned out to be the wrong color for the project I was doing. so I am overstocked with it. I seem to be grabbing it to try and use it up. Thanks for the blog candy, this is a good one. Oh please magic generator pick me pick me.
Love to come and visit your website all the time, it’s great ! i tend to go towards the trendy colors (brown and blue and brown and pink) then a side of me goes towards the hot colors that *pop*! pinks, oranges, red, all bright and colorfilled!!!
wonderful candy that you are giving away ( me), i know that whoever (me)gets chosen (me) they will be thrilled(me,me,me!)
have a great day!
jan
Soft blue colors – like the sky!
Apricot! and all of those cool tones! Thanks for the inspiration and keep those ideas coming.
Thanks for the chance to win blog candy!!! I am making a scrapbook with the Colorbok Punch out Pack so I am using all earthtones!
Love, love Soft Sky but just finished 35 wedding favors in Pretty in Pink and used a whole pkg. so guess that’s my latest “grab”.
I reach for the all the bold brights!! Love them this time of year!!! Thanks for the chance to win!!
I’ve been reaching for Soft Sky and Groovy Guava. Guess I’ll have to reach for something different next year! Martha
I need to put the teal cardstock down and walk away!!
I am beginning to think I can’t make a card without it!! 😉
I seem to be using a lot of pretty in pink and purely pomegranate.
I love Chocolate Chip with any color (well, 99% of the SU colors, anyway!)—but I especially love using it with Pretty in Pink. This time of year, though, it seems I’m gravitating toward using Chocolate Chip with any of the Bold Bright colors. Nothing like pretty, cheerful colors to get me thinking of the beautiful flowers I know will be here soon!
Thanks for the chance to win some awesome blog candy. Your generosity is evident in everything that you do. Have a wonderful day!
Pam B. (4Hounds)
I seem to reach for Certainly Celery at this time of year. It just reminds me of the first buds of spring!
I love your blog and I’m trying to get the nerve to post some of my cards for your challenges. Thanks for the inspiration!
Until I finish working on wedding favors for one of my two daughters who are getting married on the same day in May, I won’t be able to stop reaching for buckaroo blue (I loved all of last years’ SU in-colors!!), silver, and white! The first daughter’s favors are ALL done!! 🙂
I am using the In Colors as much as possible as they won’t re available much longer although I plan on stocking up real good!
Thanks for offering such great candy and thanks for sharing all you do.
Vicky
OMG! This is the yummies candy I’ve wished for for a long time! Pick me, pick me, pick me machine! TFS! My Groovy Guava paper is going fast these days, but I think Old Olive is my old time favorite… I don’t use spring colors that much…
Sharon- The color I seem to grab lately is Pretty in Pink. Mostly because I seem to have an over abundance of it at the moment!! Actually, I like that color and often pair it with celery, ballet blue or not quite navy. Love your blog and I would love to win this stamp set (it’s been on my list but always gets bumped off for some reason!)
Gretchen
Ohhh I’ve been dreaming of this set!! What a great blog candy prize!!! I have been reaching for soft sky and chocolate chip lately!
Love your Cards! I am into Lavender and pink these days. My Granddaughter’s favorite colors.
I seem to only be grabbing white and maroon as I am making graduation open house invites for my dd 🙂
I keep peeking at this lovely green with flecks though and am itching to play with it!
I love bashful blue and certainly celery. What a great blog you have. Thanks!
Definitely River Rock!! I so love that color!
Hmm, my celery and pinks are running low-must be using a lot of them! Thanks!
oh gosh, look at all these comments!! i love what you do, sharon! thanks for sharing your talent with all of us!
oh yeah, for colors, i seem to be grabbing for pumpkin pie, ruby red, and pixie pink! so summery!!!
I bought a couple packages of Cool Caribbean last year because I knew I wanted to use that color for my baby announcements. It’s so bright and fun, I find myself reaching for it all the time! =) thanks for the opportunity!
Hmmm… so many pretty spring colors. I love peach and cream, and then there’s mint, and aqua, too. Love using all of those.
I’m loving those 10 minute cards you’ve been sharing. Rose red seems to be my color of choice these days. I’ve paired it with some green galore for a brighter springy look. Thanks for the chance at the set.
Certainly Celery is my favorite!!!! It goes with every color! I just love it. I just found your blog through Paper Delitz! I will be joining your list. Thanks for the chance to winn your blog candy!
Dorothy
Boy, there sure are a lot of us out there that want a free SU set! Thanks for the chance to win this one.
I really love the combination of light blues and aqua for the Spring. Otherwise browns, beige and black are my favorite for really elegant looking cards. Love your blog and inspiration, and thanks for the chance to win!
I’m not a big card maker, but when I do, I seem to gravitate toward all of the greens (Certainly Celery & Old Olive especially). Lately, though I’ve been using alot of pinks since we just got a new baby girl in the family. Oh, by the way, I love your beautiful projects and cards!
My current go to is Wasabi! Love it with all of the DP papers – so clean and bright…
BTW, love your style, girl!
Thank you for the wonderful blog candy! I love whisper white cs, kraft, chocolate chip, blue and red cs.
Thanks for the chance at winning this set. I love Groovy Guava as it is fresh for spring and bashful blue is always easy to mix with. keep up the great inspiration
Eileen
I’m trying to use up the in colors. I’m gonna miss them. I hope the new ones are this great!
Thanks for the great giveaway! What a treat! This time of year I start reaching for the summer colors. We didn’t have much a winter here in my area of Texas and we’ve slid right into Spring with cloudy but warmer weather…now I’m ready for the warmer weather with some sun!
Latelly I have been using the Wild Wasabi! I love green and I love all of the SU colors (by the looks of my stash I love it all) Thanks for your wonderful blog.
Cardstock …….. Lately it’s been Wild Wasabi and So Saffron. I just love those two colors together. Springy yet soothing!
Hey thanks for the chance at great blog candy. I seem to go for the pinks and browns or pinks and greens lately. Anything with a spring feel!!
I try to use a lot of different colors, so there isn’t one in particular, but I do use black on a big percentage of cards as an accent color for pop. Awesome blog candy.
Certainly Celery and Pretty in Pink are just ONE of my Fav Combos right now!!! thos if you take Barely BananaApricot Appeal and Certain Celery, THOSE go very well together too!
THANKS FOR SHARING
Lori Q
I love the Wasabi green color with saffron. Love your blog. Beverly
ANY color has been my favorite. Ican’t seem to stop stampin!!!
Leanne J
Ohhh what a pretty set! Thanks so much for offering it up! I love the earth elements family from SU but lately I do seem to grabbing lots of pinks and reds! Thanks for the chance! {SMILES}
I really like the light blue that matches the picnic paper. I don’t have a lot of SU stuff but just loved that picnic paper and I had to get coordinating CS to match.
Wow, thanks so much for a chance to win this set! I have been using a lot of certainly celery this week, but I think soft sky is still my favorite, no matter what time of year!
Well, I am not sure exactly why it is (cause I didn’t think I liked green) but I keep reaching for Certainly Celery – I have it in solid and DSP and can’t get enough!!! Lovin’ it!!!
I am still using the Groovy Guava….
but I have been using green/yellows
a lot lately. Spring colors..lots of Birthdays!
*Thank you for a chance to WIN
your very generous Blog Candy 🙂
Dee
Oooohh, Barely Banana and Mellow Moss. But I made a card yesterday in Ruby Red and Apricot Appeal that turned out darling! Such a hard question to answer! Thanks so much for the opportunity to win this set…I’ve been wanting it…so, please, pick me!
Wow, Thanks for the chance to win!! Chocolate chip is still my favorite color and I just pair it with any of the lighter soring colors or whatever strikes my fancy!!
Certainly Celery seems to get in many of my recent projects. I also seem to be going for pinks. They’re so spring-like. Hurray – winter is over!!!
Chocolate Chip is my favorite all year long… it goes with EVERYTHING!!

Holy Hannah, look at all the comments! Think you could *hide* your blog for a few days so I have a better chance of winning?? hehe! I’ve yet to win any blog candy!!! So PAH-leeeeeze pick me! Thanks! And oh, I’m loving pinks and light blues right now.
i am reaching for white and browns/greens/blues
Hi Sharon, what great blog candy. I’m loving pinks and greens right now.
Go check out my card using the siberian iris for the color challenge
yesterday. Hugs, Barb
I seem to grab all shades of blue……..April and May are blue flower months in the Northwest. We have blue wood hyacinths, pulminaria, veronica, lithadora, violets, pansy’s, bugle plants all in bloom and getting rained on this month. Happy Spring to you all, Nancy
wow, what great blog candy your offering… I seem to pull out the ole stand by “whisper white” and then go for which ever color tickles my fancy for that day, LOL.. Lovin’ the regal rose with whisper white and adding dazzling diamonds to it, looks yummy!
My favorite colors this time of year are the sunny yellows and greens. Tired of Winter and ready for some Daffodil colors! I also like the pink and greens too. Anything springy!
In the spring my favorite “go to” color is Certainly Celery. Makes me think of new leaves on the trees after a long winter.
I seemed to grab Certainly Celery alot too…reminds me of the new grass and leaves everywhere right now. Thanks for a chance to win!
I just recently discovered your blog & love it! I usually go with a neutral color for my card base, but since spring has just started here I am more inclined to add some “green” to the mix. I would love some “blog candy”!!
Ooooh, thanks for the chance to win your blog candy. I can’t wait to see your card. I always seem to gravitate towards chocolate paper. I’m preparing for a workshop, so I also am using Bashful Blue, Groovy Guava, and definitely some of the new DP from Stampin’ Up.
I am picking yellow cs as well right now! Thanks for the opportunity!
Gerriann
I can’t quit grabbing for Stampin’ Up!’s Soft Sky. I just LOVE that color! It goes with so many different types of stamps.
I seem to be using a lot of groovy guava, soft sky, and choc chip. I just love the color combo!
I love real red lately. I think it has to do with the Summer Picnic DSP and the Tart and Tangy stamps!
I keep grabbing Barely Banana. I love that color!!!
Hi Sharon – I’ve been using my new Summer Sun and Berry Sorbet from PTI lately they are great bright colors for spring!
I cannot keep my hands off this color combination: Close-to-Cocoa, Regal Rose & Pretty in Pink. I’m having a ball…
I am using alot of rose red right now.
I’m ‘Defining my life’ with Pink Passion to celebrate Spring, Easter, Mother’s Day and just for the joy of living. Every day of the year is Spring….constant temperature, cool breeze, sunny, flowers all around and pollen everywhere because all the fruit trees are bursting with flowers. Everything’s great except for the vog (volcanic smog) in the air.
I have been using a lot of bright colors lately. Real Red, Lovely Lilac, blues. But yesterday I found some 12 x 12 paper at a dollar store 4 for a dollar that is browns and pinks. So will be working with them this week.
Angel hugs
Debby @ Debby’s Stampin’ Heaven
Lately I’ve using a lot of Groovy Guava and different kinds of green.
I love your blog, it is awesome!!!
Thanks for the chance to win some blog candy.
God bless you
Giovana
I can not believe I just found your blog this very minute! Where the heck have I been! I can’t wait till I get home tonight to spend some time looking around. I love your SCS gallery. And what timing — great blog candy! I don’t often sign on to these but I would love this set so –what the heck. Thanks for the offer and the inspiration. Oh yea, my favorite colors right now are the East Coast Prep colors and the Summer Picnic — bright, cheery and fun!
I tend to lean toward yellows this time of year. I guess I think of spring, chicks, sunshine….and it still goes so well with all other pastels, or even some earthy colors. Seems to me to be a very versital color for spring/summer.
thanks for the chance to win.
i love colors that go with choc.chip. i just made my daughter a birthday card that i put rudy read and buckaroo blue w/ cc.
Red – all shades – but my favorite is a rich true red – not oragney. Never seem to have enough of this one.
Yellow and green seem to be the favorites at this time of year!!
I am loving chocolate chip and pinks ! Thanks for a chance to win !!
Sharon you are to good to be true :D. You already know I love your Blog and all you do. To the question about which cs, well, let me see. I like Groovy Guava, Bashful Blue, any shade of pink and Chocolate Chip.
Thanks for the chance to win, you are the BEST!!!!!
The color I use all depends on the card I am creating. This week I am making – working on an order, 10 cards for a man, so I am using mostly earthtones.
Soft pastel colors always grab my eye this time of year: soft blues, greens, chalk and light brown… just like the beach!
I’ve been using soft sky and chocolate chip alot. I also like groovy guava.
Thanks for a chance to win this set! Your blog is awesome as usual!
In thr spring I am always drawn to the pastels. Especially the greens.
I love to use pink and brown together!
Sorry you didn’t have time to do the 10 minute card today but I guess one of us will benefit from it!!! I tend to go for pastels like a lot of your other posters but I tend to use Certainly Celery and Pretty in Pink more than any colors in the Soft Subtles group. It is pretty funny that I go for these colors since my favorite color has always been any shade of purple and I hardly ever use that color.
Love Groovy Guava, but my most favorite of favorites is Ginger Blossom DP. Thanx for the chance to win. Love your blog.
I am looking forward to ten minute tuesdays, sounds fun. The colors I have been reaching for lately is blue bayou and soft sky with very vanila. I had a hard time liking them, but now that their time is near an end I am finding I like them a lot. Thanks for the chance to win a great stamp set.
I’ve been reaching for soft sky, mostly because I have the designer paper and doublestitched ribbon to go with it. Thanks for the chance to win!
SAndy
I have definitely been favoring the roses and celery……for sure.
I tend to go for colors like pinks , yellows and bright greens , nice bright springy colors !
I’m still crazy over groovy guava. I love all the “in colors” I will miss them when they are gone!
Gosh, that’s a tough one. I prefer more bright colors now – especially Tempting Turquoise. I love springy colors, too. Okay, so I really like most of the colors. I really like the butterfly punch on your last cards.
The card stock I’ve been using most these days in that terrific Soft Sky–it works with so many other colors and is great. My all time favorite, that I can always count on is that Cameo Coral!
Your blog is my favorite – I keep peeking to see if it has come in my email yet while I am at work! BLUSH BLOSSOM is a favorite of mine right now.
I have been reaching for Real Red so much lately. It goes so well with the Summer Picnic DP and the fruit stamps that coodinate with that. Old Olive ribbon and we are set!!!
Taken with Teal I just can’t seem to get enough of it!!
Thank you so much for the blog candy!!! My favorite colors right now are the brighter colors – like Tempting Turquoise and Real Red!!!
I am loving cameo coral, apricot appeal, and tempting turquoise!
Love your blog! I check in almost everyday!! 🙂

I seem to be grabbing for a lot of Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, and Soft Sky these days.
Thanks a bunch for the chance to win!!
I always love chocolate brown, but I’ve really enjoyed retro greens lately and orange lately. Not usually my colors, but I think winter has lasted too long! Love your cards.
I always love chocolate brown, but I’ve really enjoyed retro greens and orange lately. Not usually my colors, but I think winter has lasted too long! Love your cards.
I love your blogsite! My favorites right now are Wild Wasabe and Groovy Guava, but that can change anytime.
My favorite color is green but right now I am trying to avoid it – Can’t send everyone green cards for every occasion! I seem to be using a lot of turquoise lately.
Love the blog candy. in fact last night I was wondering why I don’t have that set.
I really love your blog, Sharon. Love your idea for ten minute cards!!!
I’ve been using up quite a bit of my precious Cool Caribbean cardstock. I just love that color!
Shawn K.
I seem to go for the “springtime” colors; pink, yellow, pale green…but I have to admit, I’m still addicted to chocolate! 🙂
Last night I made a card using Blue Bayou and Wild Wasabi – love, love, love it! I’ll be putting those two together again!
I love the Cocoa – Brown has been doing well lately.
love those SU stamps!!!!
Chocolate chip, Real Red, and Certainly Celery are always my favorites.
But this time of year I am loving Turquoise and Red together.
Also Real Red and Pumpkin–very energetic combos.
Thanks for the opportunity to win.
Hi,
I’m new to your blog but I love your cards and ideas. So, the cardstock I am going for is Chocolate Chip – because it seems to be the new black – it goes with many other colors and is yummy!
Certainly Celery 🙂
I’m looking forward to 10 minute card Tuesdays! This will be fun!!
I just made an orange and navy combo for high school grad colors. It came out really cute!
I am in love with chocolate chip right now.
Hope I win!! heheheee, my favorite color is chocolate chip when it comes to making a card. That’s the one I tend to go for….
CammyV
I love Wasabi…man I am going to miss that color! Count me in on the contest! deidre
I’ve been using a lot of pumpkin pie and brilliant blue lately. The combination of the two has worked well for me so far.
Tonight it was bright green and yellow. Yesterday it was purple. The day before pink. I guess I’m all over the place. I love spring! All the beautiful flowers all bright and colorful! The lovely sunshiney days. I can’t pick just one!!!
Lately I’ve been grabbing for anything in a shade of pink or green! Preferably together. So fresh! But I also really love Chocolate Chip!
I have been using a lot of blues and browns lately. I really like that combination. It’s hard to pick just a few colours but I guess those would probably be the most popular I’ve been using.
Hi Sharon, great set! Thanks for the chance to win! One of my fav colors right now is Pumpkin Pie. Of course, my go to color for accenting is Choc chip! Hugs, michelle
WOW – so generous! I’ve been wanting this set since it came out! =) the color I seem to be reaching for most, would be Certainly Celery.
Certainly Celery is the color I seem to be grabbing alot of lately!
Thanks for sharing you FAB blog with us and thanks for the op to win your YUMMY blog candy!

Hi Sharon,
I love using Groovy Guava and Real Red together on cards and projects. A close third for me would be Apricot Appeal. Thank you so much for your blog and especially for explaining the difference in the Nestabilities (sizes: petite vs classic).
Thanks for offering the blog candy! Lately I keep going back to Kraft, it’s one of my staples.
What great blog candy, Sharon! Thanks for the chance!
I am always grabbing Blue Bayou these days. I just bought a pack, but I think I’d better stock up again before it’s retired!
Sharon:
Just love coming to your blog everyday and sometimes twice in a day! I absolutely love the way you have been using the butterfly punch — they add such airness to your cards. I am so inspired by your inspiring creations! Keep them coming as I enjoy all of them!
The cardstocks that I have been using the most lately are Yo Yo Yellow, Tempting Turquoise and Gable Green/Green Galore.
Would love to have some Wild Wabashi and Groovy Guava to play with one of these days!
Thank you for your generosity in the blog candy.
~Amy S.~
The colours I use this time of year are blush blossom and certainly celery with lots of white. It’s just so soft and airy. Beatrice
I don’t think that I have specific colours that I go for at a particular time of year – other than blue and white for Christmas. But at the moment I am using greens and browns as I am having a spate of men’s cards that need doing. Not very spring-like! I think that my colours are more down to who I am making the card for, rather than the season.
I just love your blog! I always come away with some new idea or inspiration. Lately,I have been using a color that I rarely reach for – Lovely lilac. I just bought the SU! Blossoms Abound. Lilacs are a favorite of my mother. Lovely lilac, Always artichoke, and gold metallic – just right for spring stamping.
I love the stamp set you’re offering up as blog candy — I had a very good friend talk me out of buying it this month, then show me a card which used the set! She feels so badly now! Thanks so much for the chance to win it!! Jeanne
love love love greens and yellows thanks for the chance to win…
have a great day
I guess I would say PINK any time of the year. Love your blog, keep up the good work.

Pink and blue seem to be the color of the day since I am making baby cards for friends.
Wow…I’m using Soft Sky, Mellow Moss and So Saffron and trying to combine any and all colors with Chocolate Chip, my new favorite! 🙂 Thanks for the offer of great blog candy; I love that your daily posts come straight to my email, Sharon! 🙂
I go for beachy colors – blues, orange/yellows. I love the summer and those colors feel so fresh!
Lately I have been using Wild Wasabi and Groovy Guava quite a bit. I am also liking Choc. Chip combined with Pretty in Pink, Bashful Blue or So Saffron.
I still tend to grab for the in colors. The colors look very “Springy” to me.
thanks for this opportunity! at this time of year (and throughout the year!) i tend to gravitate towards chocolate chip and pretty in pink…or any shade of pink for that matter!
Pinks and purples seem to find their way into my hands this time of year – spring, Easter, flowers – love it!
Thank you for a wonderful site – I visit you DAILY!
Bright pink : )
Anything that goes with the card fronts that I’m mounting to get rid of some bulk in the craft room!!
But anything that goes with Bali Breeze and the Summertime one out of the mini are my next step!!
Shannon
I met with my friend last night so that she could help me choose more paper colors. She showed me the River Rock and I had to have it! I love it!
I love my cool caribeean that I have left over from last year and purely pomegranate together right now. It just makes me happy!
I love your cards! Thanks for sharing your creativity with us.
As far as color of card stock, I’m navigating toward the bright colors: tempting turquoise, pink passion, only orange, real red. I think that should be enough colors for anyone. So with that said, I’m ready for color as we’ve had a gray winter here in Minnesota.
Hey Sharon, I’ve been going through the DP from SU all year – it’s great. Lately, it’s been Summer Picnic and Afternoon Tea. Love using real red, bashful blue and old olive with the Summer Picnic. All new colors go so well with Afternoon Tea – Groovy Guava, Wild Wasabi – which I love – and Soft Sky. Your blog is super!
Lately I’ve been using mainly light pinks and light greens. I really like the combination. Thanks.
I am trying to use up my Groovy Guava!
I’ve been picking lime green and bright blues. Love your blog by the way. Thank you for all of the inspiration.
Lately I seem to reaching for Wild Wasabi and Soft Sky. I’m going to have such a hard time seeing these colors go when the new catty comes out!
I seem to be reaching for bright and bold colors lately, especially to contrast them with black; they just seem to pop off the page!
Wild Wasabi seems to be jumping onto a lot of my cards these days — such a bright, cheerful color and so complementary to lots of other colors. Thanks for blogging — great blog candy!
I’ve justed used Blue Bayou and Chocolate Chip for a Blizzard Beach layout. I love using blue and brown together.
I love your blog. My last card was in hot pink and lime.
I looooove grabbing shades of yellow and pink- cheery, and go well with springtime/baby/birthday cards, and much more!
I have re-discovered your blog after not visiting in a long while. Loving all the cards with black and that gorgeous black sheer ribbon.
Lately I find myself grabbing pinks and mauves and blues with certainly celery green, and a lot of rose and pink together, or aqua and brown or black. I can have so much fun pulling papers and coordinating them that I forget I am supposed to be making a card!
Pink/brown
certainly celery/with a pastel, so springlike
aqua/brown or black
pomegranate
Would love to win this blog candy……………………..
thanks for having such an inspirational blog

Oh my goodness there have been a lot of posts! That’s because we all have to get our Sharon fix! I’m pretty unimaginative, I reach for Almost Amethyst all year round! Also Chocolate Chip!
I really seem to be using Always Artichoke and Chocolate Chip a lot. I am fairly new to stamping as well as being a SU demo. Thanks for the chance at some candy. I loooove candy. Peggy
With wedding season coming up, I seem to be reaching for elegant combos like Certainly Celery with Black & White or Bashful Blue with Black & White. I’ve been eyeing this set and it’s on my wish list so I’m keeping my fingers crossed!!
Chocolate chip and Groovy guava are my new combo platter this week!
Pink–lots of pink. Must be spring … Great blog candy! Thanks for offering it. Define Your Life has been on my wishlist since it came out. I have my fingers crossed that you’ll choose my number. Love your site!
Pink, pink, pink and more pink card stock has been popping up for me all of a sudden. Any shade or hue of pink is what I am working with.
-*Linda*-
Sharon, although I follow your blog and projects daily, this is my first ever post I love your style and that you share all your wonderful ideas. Lately I have been using SU “Sky” paired with black and white….love the contrast. Now that warmer weather has finally arrived I’m sure I will be back to my bright orange and lime greens.
Linda
Hi sharon, Just wanted to say your work is beautiful. Your a great inspiration. I have been using reds and yellows thinking of the tulips that will come up soon, even if they get covered in snow a couple more time this year. thanks again for all your wonderful ideas.
I would have to say chocolate chip.
I have been going to white on whites lately. I’ve been using various shades of whites, with clear glass (or glass look) and silver embellishments.
I just love the combination of chocolate chip and pretty in pink or chocolate chip and groovy guava, or chocolate chip and bashful blue or chocolate chip and certainly celery. Love’m!!!
Maggie 🙂
PS Read your comments on Scor-pal and Scor-it … couldn’t make up my mind, so I got both LOL:) – on sale too !!! Can’t do without either now.
Lately it’s been chocolate chip! It goes with anything:)
I’m not sure about anyone else- but I’m definitely addicted to the In Color colors. My favorite is the purely pomegranate closely followed by groovy guava. I’m gonna be sad when they are no longer available!
Thanks for having such a great blog. I enjoy reading it every day and I’m always looking forward to seeing your beautiful samples.
pink and spring green…love your site!! Thanks. Val
I am loving greens at this time of the year, with rose or pink or purple. That’s not really choosing one, is it?
If I had to pick one, it would be wild wasabi. I do love that color!
Thanks for the chance to win!
I’ve been going for pretty in pink and barely banana lately. thanks for offering the blog candy! Love your blog and your creations!
ohhh…how fun!!
im all about pink and brown:) {well…really brown with any color!!}
thanks for the chance to win an awesome set *wow*
It is surprising to me, because I am not really a ‘pastel’ person, but the color lilac has been my favorite color this spring. I think my eyes are just hungry for color after a long, dark, colorless winter.
I think that I am thinking spring!!! I am using a LOT of greens – old olive, wasabi, certainly celery….GREEN! Spring is finally in the air!
Thanks for sharing such a generous gift!
Wow! that’s a great blog candy set! My favorite color is celery as it goes with everything “springy”.
I love lemon yellow…pastel orange..pastel green…in this season..itz lovely spring time..!!
watery shades are the best..!!
Hop I win this set..!!
Wow! Thanks for the opportunity! This time of year is still fresh and springy, so I reach for my soft subtles pack…certainly celery and bashful blue:)
This time of year I am go thankful for spring, so I tend to pick spring like colors, pastels mostly. I am also missing the beach alot right now (I used to live in southern California…but I’ve lived in the midwest for thirty something years now). Celery, yellow, light blues. I love em all!
This time of year I seem to be using celery and other soft subtles. So happy it is spring! Thanks for the chance for the great blog candy!
I seem to be using a lot of greens right now with blue as the second most used color. Thanks for the chance to win this stamp set 🙂
OMGoodness,
Great giveaway.
Love the challenge this week.
I still reach for Soft sky and river rock for all sorts of occasions.
I think i’ll have to load up on the in colours this catty before they retire.
thanks again for your inspiration.
I so enjoy seeing your creations. So inspiring! The colors I seem to be reaching for the most are pinks and blues. Thanks for the chance to win some blog candy.
I enjoy your blog very much, very “down to earth.” I have been reaching for Wild Wasabi cardstock lately. I love that green and it is so “springy.” Thanks for the chance at yummy candy!!
Oddly enough, I’ve been loving my kraft cardstock lately. Maybe it’s that whole ‘bare tree’ look, though hopefully we’ll be all greened up here sooner rather than later.
Great cards, btw. 🙂
Love your blog… it is always packing a punch for me! I am grabbing a lot of pale blue and ivory and brown… robin’s egg blue just calls out Spring and Rebirth to me!
I’m still grabbing Wild Wasabi—I had better stock up soon, because I know I’ll still want it when it’s all gone! Thanks for the chance!
I’ve been choosing greens all different shades and yellow.Thanks for the chance to win blog candy.
Lately, I’ve been in love with Soft Sky – it just looks so pretty with so much and it just says fresh and spring to me. I love it paired with white for a fresh, clean look. Thanks for all of the awesome ideas. Love, love your blog. Thanks for sharing.
What a great prize! I am using lots of certainly celery…I just love that color! It’s great with white, chocolate chip, pale blue, black…it is a just a “spring” color for me.
I gravitate towards SU’s blush blossom
Like so many others, I like greens and pinks this time of year. I like your blog, too, Sharon, and look forward to seeing what new thing you’ve made to share. It’s always awesome!
The color that catches my eye seems to be PINK. Why? I don’t know, I’m not a pinky kind of gal. But there has to be pink somewhere on all my layouts or cards. I made a birthday card for my son, who turned 34 this year, and there was pink on it!
Oh how fun! I keep grabbing for the light pinks! :o) I’ve always been a pink girl – and this time of year provides so many great reasons to pull the pink out!
Thanks for the chance to win!
Yellow! Yellow! and more Yellow! After surviving all the bleak darkness of winter, I need to see the light. Yellow comes the closest to the warm light of the sun so I want and need YELLOW! Thanks for all the info you give us through your blog – Nimmy
Hmmm I like white…but I also like the pinks and soft purples.
Guess it depends on the mood and what kind of card Im creating.
Thanks for the chance to win…love your blog!

What a terrific gift, Sharon!! This time of year, I seem to be using more soft subtles — lovin’ pinks and greens right now. 😀 Kelly
I love certainly celery right this minute. It seems I can’t make a card without it!
I am in love with Pumpkin Pie and Real Red. SPRING colours!!
Love your blog! Thanks for your creations.

Gotta be Chocolate Chip! It used to be Certainly Celery. Thanks for the chance to win!
Such a generous offering Sharon! I’d have to say Pretty in Pink – feels like Spring to me.
lilac 🙂
my fave color!
I grab all the Bold Brights these days. I usually use Lovely Lilac as purple is my favorite color, but any bright, cheery color helps my spring seem happier.
I’m totally stuck on wild wasabi..I think I’m trying to get my fill before they no longer sell it!
I am loving the colors in the afternoon tea DSP. Soft sky, groovy guava & wild wasabi. Thank you for the blog candy offer.
Lately its been Groovy Guava and Chocolate Chip or Black….just a couple of weeks ago it was Purely Pomegranate and Soft Sky.
I tend to use the InColors more often just before they
retire so my customers will buy it up before they cannot
get it anymore.
I tend to go with blues, greens. This year I’m grabbing lots of Soft Sky, and also Wild Wasabi. Certainly Celery is always good. Maybe some pinks/lavender if the mood strikes.
I love anything from Basic Grey! LOVE your work!!
Love your blog! I reach for Blue Bayou and Soft Sky alot with browns – I love the combination of soft blues and browns. I have really been wanting the Define Your Life set – it’s one of my favorites everytime I see it on a card – thanks for the opportunity!
Donelle U :o)
I seem to be grabbing sky blue most recently.. maybe for the spring flowers…Thanks for sharing I love your website!!! you are in my favs.
Kim 🙂
I am so ready for spring that I find myself reaching for the soft subtles. Certainly Celery and Eggplant, Pretty in Pink and Chocolate Chip are some of my latest favs.
Kristen
Hi Sharon,
I love your blog and check it often. Lately, I reach for Groovy Guava when making cards. What will I do when it is gone?!
My favorite is kraft…I always reach for it for a card base when I can’t figure out what color to use! TFS!
Love your site! Thanks for all you do! My colours of late are pale plum and perfect plum. Enjoy your day!
Using alot of so saffron.
I luv blush blossom and black. I also luv close to cocoa and prettty in pink. You can never go wrong with the in colors. Thanks for the chance a blog candy! Teresa*~*
Hi Sharon,
I’ve been using so many colors lately but mostly those that coordinate with Summer Picnic (ds) and Tie the knot (ss). Thanks for all the inspiration you give me.
I have been using a lot of white
Sharon – yours are the best!!!
I’m mostly using colors that really sing out loud!! Reds, bold pinks, lime greens and yellows!
Have fun tomorrow!
Love your blog! Love your cards! Great inspirations. I have been using a lot of Certainly Celery and Old Olive. They are very springy and blend well with lots of different colors… oranges, pinks, yellows… and on and on. thanks for all your hard work!
Wow – what amazing blog candy! I don’t have a particular color for this time of year, but I noticed today that I am running out of River Rock which I’ve been using like crazy lately!
I am a “earth tone girl” all year ’round and lately my favorite card base has been made from Kraft CS. I bought a whole ream (250 sheets) because I was loving it so much.
Thanks for the chance to win.

Great comment, love the design of the site too.
