You know the drill... you'll have to leave a comment to be included in the drawing! Here's what I'm going to do this time... In your comment, please tell me a Stampin' Up! color combination that you've wanted to use but have had trouble with. Then, once I draw the winner, I will create a card using that combination!
I will do the drawing after I return from convention - so be watching for the results on Monday, August 4th! ...and then you'll have to give me a little bit of time to create the card!
I look forward to hearing your combinations - and thanks so much for being a loyal reader of The Stamp Link!

Congrats on the 100,000th hit!!
I have trouble using reds and greens together without having it look Christmas-y, you know?!
Orange...I just have trouble using orange!
I would love to win your blog candy! I do not really have any trouble using any of SU colors as I love them all!
Pink
Congrats girl on all the hits!!! I can only dream of that number!!!hee hee!!
I really have trouble using purples-any shade.
Pinks and greens together! My favorite colors, but they never look quite right when I try to put them together in a card!
Shaunda
I have a hard time incorporating Apricot Appeal or Orchid Opulence in anything. I guess because they are not my favorits. Congratulations on the 100,000 hits.
I'm still having a hard time with Tangerine Tango. Congrats!!
Congrats! I think I have problems with the super bright colors like yoyo yellow.
Congrats on your 100,000 Hits and WOW, I was so excited for you to see your card featured on the Stampers Showcase!
I'm not a big yellow fan, but I love summer sun, and never use it, cuz I just can't seem to find the right combo-HELP!
Have fun at convention-wish I was there.
Wow! Congrats on all those hits! That's fantastic! :D Hmmm...a tough color combo that I like. I have a tough time using yo-yo yellow on a card in general! I can not find anything that I like it with! Haha!
Orchid Opulence! I have lots of trouble combining it with other colors...and I like it!!!
Congrats on 100,000 hits! I would love to win this awesome blog candy! Purples seem to be the hardest for me to use.
First of all, I love your blog! You are so inspirational. It's like a breath of fresh air to see your beautiful cards. I would have to say I have trouble with Red. It's so strong to me. It always says Christmas, but I see cards people make that are beautiful with red.
Thanks!!
Wow!!! 100,000 is amazing!! The color that I like that I have trouble using is cameo coral!!
Congrats Michele!!
Janet
WOW - congrats on all the hits! I have trouble with the darker colors in the Rich Regals color family. I like the birght and cheery colors so much better that the darker ones hardly get used. I would love to see what you could do with them.

Woohoo, Congrats on 100k hits. Love your blog. I have trouble with almost amethyst, with anything. Thanks for the chance
Have fun at convention, can't wait to see all the new stuff.
Congratulations on your 100,000 hits!
Color combo I have a hard time with is anything with yo yo yellow. I think it is just such a hard color to use.
Congrats on 100.000 hits, Michelle! Thats awesome. Masculine color combos are hard for me. What about this one: Chocolate Chip, Apricot Appeal, and Bordering Blue. Good luck with that one!

Any color combo with Glorious Green.
Hum.....I had to really think about this one. I know a color I have not used in along time is garden green. There are so many other great greens that it seems to just be left in its paper folder and not used. So.....Garden green will have to be my choice. Now congrats on your hits.
Congrats on the hits! Great blog candy
Not that I have had trouble, but like Real Red, Very Vanilla and Bashful Blue, sounds strange, but can be interesting....
Thanks for a chance to win!
Lori
More Mustard is the hardest color for me!!! I just can't seem to make it look good.
Michele: Congrats on 100,000 hits! I know you get a new one from me everyday! I'm a relatively new demo, and your blog gives me alot of inspiration, so thank you! I have trouble using YoYo Yellow with anything. I know what the wheel says to use, but it just never looks good to me. Help! Hope you have fun at convention!
wow! congrats! i love your blog and cant wait to hear how convention was! color problem for me is yo yo yellow. ive had an unopened pack for 2 years. seems too bright, what color could i pair it with to tone it down?
congrats! great blog, and super sweet blog candy, I don't have any S! yet, but I dreaming about it:) my colour combo olive, blue,yellow, white
ohhhhhh congrats!!!
Enjoy convention as well!! I loved my first Australian one in April!! I even got to swap a card with the gorgeous Marelle!!!
I struggle using any bold brights colours - cause they just dont "float my boat" IYKWIM! lol
Love the blog candy too - I sure would love it! lol

Woooohoooo Michele....100 000...WTG!! That is fab! And it's no wonder with such a great blog to keep us coming back:) The colour that stumps me a lot of the time is YoYo Yellow....eeeew....it's just so...Yellow!! BFN.
Congrats on all the hits!!! I have the hardest time with orange and blue.
Congrats Michele, you write a great blog. I think the hardest colours to use are yo yo yellow and pixie pink.
Congrats!
I have never been able to use Summer Sun on anything. I've tried several times, but that color is just too dang bright!
Wow, 100,000 hits. You really do impress me. I love your work and am so glad I came across your blog. You've been such an inspiration and I look forward to getting your updates - in anticipation. :) I have troubles with using anything with Bordering Blue (so that it doesn't look dull and drab). Thanks for your creativity!
I vote for Yo Yo Yellow too! Too bright for my taste. Congrats on the hits!!
colors i have trouble with are the oranges--tangerine tango, groovy guava, only orange---just havent used them....

Have a blast at convention! Congrats, wow, 100,000 hits! Ihave trouble with summer sun. I never know what colors to use with it.
Congratulations on your blog success!
I struggle with most of the bold brights, especially Glorious Green. I don't know if I've ever made anything I like with that color.
Have a great time at convention. I soooo wish I was going.
Greens on which one to use
Congrats on all your hits. Your blog is in my favorites and I check it daily. Have a great time at convention. My trouble would be using yoyo yellow
Congrats on so many hits! Don't know why you can't believe it -- you're creations are amazing! You know me.....I'm card-making challenged. I love the craft, but still struggle with all aspects! I always take any help I can get!
Enjoy convention, as I know you will.
/p
Wow, 100,000! Congrats! I have trouble using orange with green. My color coach says I can do it but it looks funny to me!
Jean Michael
Congrats on all the hits! Wonderful!
I agree wit some..reds and greens..love the colors but always think Christmas when I use them!
Have fun!
Congrats on all of those hits! I have enjoyed browsing your blog for several months now. :)
I would have to say that I have the most trouble using bright yellows and oranges. I use So Saffron all of the time, but can never bring myself to use the Summer Sun color!
Sarah
Ciao Michele,se ho capito bene dalla mia traduzione ,chiedi dei colori?Il mio preferito è il VERDE dal più scuro al più chiaro.
Ciao
Congratulations! Love your blog. The blog candy is awesome - I would love that set!! I am mostly a bold brights girl and I have trouble using some Earth Elements like garden green, cameo coral and really rust. I like that stand out factor in cards and those colors just don't pop for me. Help. Now, that's a challenge - those colors together! LOL. I also have a hard time with Soft Subtles - if I use only colors from that family they all look like baby cards! Too cutesey! Thanks for the chance to win!
Dorothy
WOW that's a lot of hits!!! Congrats!!! I have trouble with the bright yellows. They go good with black but what else.
Sharon
Lets see. My hardest would have to be yellows and blues.
Congrats on all the hits.
This may sound strange but I have difficulty using blue bayou. I love the color but don't know what goes with it well. whenever I use it, it just doesn't look quite right.
I have trouble with yellow i just cant really find other colors i like to pair it with, congrats on all of your hits, i'm probly half of them i just love your blog and all of your beautiful creations.
Holly
I always have a hard time using Taken with Teal - it looks so dated to me. Lavender Lace, too. I don't think even you could combine those 2!
Way to GO!!!
I have a really hard time using the colors in the bold brights family.
Congrats on such a successful blog! I love your site and visit it daily. I too, have a hard time with Yo-Yo yellow, with the exception of using it for the Tart and Tangy set. Looking forward to your blog candy sample!
I tried more mustard, real red, and chocolate chip one time and wasn't completely sold on those colors together. Congrats on the blog milestone!
I love Soft Sky and Purely Pomegranate, but I don't know how to use them together without the dark pomegranate color kind of "overpowering" the card!
--twinstimestwo
Congrats on your 100,000th hit! I have trouble using purple of any sort on a card.
Congratulations Michelle on the 100,000th hit. Shows how popular your blog is. It is always wonderful to visit your site and view your very beautiful cards etc.
I have trouble using bravo burgundy and barely banana.
Helen R.
congrats on 100,000 hits - that is awesome - the colors I have a hard time with are groovy guava and any other color -
"Congratulations"..on your
100,000+ Hits !!
I have trouble with Really Rust+
Old Olive+ Perfect Plum...
that's a tough combo...lol
Your blog candy looks great...
very generous!
Have a great time at Convention!!

Congrats on all the hits. I have trouble using tempting turquoise or taken with teal with any of the other colors. I just don't use those colors. Thanks--Darlene L
Congrats on the 100,000 hit!
I have trouble with the rich regal family. I have all the colors but hardly use them because I am not sure how to coordinate them with other colors.
I almost hate to admit this outloud, but I do not love brown, so I struggle with the browns. Congrats on having so many hits!
Hi there
Taken with Teal is a problem for me. I would love to see your take on it.
Congrats!!
Janine
100,000 hits incredible!
Congrates love your blog
WOW, thats a lot of hits, congrats! I have so much trouble with Not Quite Navy, don't know why, but I do. And Going Grey as well. Have fun at convention!
Wow!!!! that is truely amazing 100,000 hits.... I know that I hit it quite often.... its not really colors that I have aproblem with its sympathy cards for men....
I don't find myself reaching for Blush Blossom or Almost Amethyst. I would love to see a card in either of those colors.
I have a hard time with the darker colors fitting in, such as Bravo Burgundy, Apricot Appeal, and Always Artichoke.
Congratulations on your great blog! I can't use glorious green and yo-yo yellow together without seeing John Deere tractors. Any ideas?
cindyb
Oh wow Congrats on the 100,000 hits! i hope you had a blast at convention!!!
Now I think using Summer sun, with anything is a really really hard colour to work with!
Take care
makeesha
Wow, look at the pretties! I used to live in Allen, TX! I'm an Allen Eagle class of 2001. I lived there when it was just two stops signs at mcdermott and 75...boy have times changed.
I have had problems with Really Rust. It's not pink or red and I just don't know what to mix it with. I have some paper and the marker...I haven't bought the ink pad yet...
Congrats on all your hits! I seem to have trouble using yellows like yo-yo yellow or summer sun, I never know what colors to use with them.
Congrats on all the hits!!!! I can only hope my blog gets that close.... one day!!!! My biggest problem comes when I try to use the darker colors like Not Quite Navy and Always Artichoke. I just feel it is really dark and gloomy. I find that I usually stick to the brighter colors instead. I hope you had a blast at convention!!! I'm hoping to go next year!!!!
Congrats on 100,00 hits! I've added hundreds to this number. I just LOVE your blog! It gives me such inspiration and ideas. LOVE IT!!!
Glorious Green and Yo-Yo Yellow are the colors I can't seem to find harmony with. Can you give my any suggestions?
I hope you enjoyed the convention. I can't wait to see the new catalog!
I have the "creative liscense" Simply Scrappin kit with Pumkin pie, Wild wasabi and blue bayou... I see them in the kit... I know they go together, but my brain cannot imagine anything I will want to keep! I am sure I will make a cute boy page for an album, but it is just too boy for me! I need to get my head around it though, I have two boys for pete's sake!!!
Wow...100K...good for you! How about Ballet Blue? I like it with Pumpkin Pie but not much else (save maybe other shades of blue!). Cheers!
Congrats on your 100,000 hits. HUGE!!!
YELLOW!!! I do struggle with YELLOW!!!
Hope you had a great time at convention.

Congrats on the blog hits. Have foun at convention. I struggle with any combo with yellows and greens.
Congrats on 100K hits ... Big number!!
I have trouble using bold colors like yoyo yellow, Glorious Green and real red.
Thanks for offering blog candy, hope I win.
Wonderful blog ! I have trouble using anything with red other than the red and gold or red and white combo.

Congrats on your 100000 hits!! I have you on my Google REader!
Those bright yellows are hard for me, or any of the real brights! I just want to tone them down!!!
sandyh502001 at yahoo dot com
CONGRATS!!!
Oh gosh, how about the bold brights color family!!
Congrats on your 100,000 hits. That's a lot of visits!! I don't really have a combination, but I haven't been successful in using Apricot Appeal in a card. Other colours that I have trouble using are: Rose Red, and Pink Passion. Thanks for a chance to win some awesome blog candy!
Congrats on all the hits...I really dislike using yellow. please help :)
kim3timemom@yahoo dot com
I've never used Old Olive or Always Artichoke...greens just don't naturally attract me. Congrats on such a great blog and lots of fans!
Hope you had a great time at convention. I was drooling over the time everyone was having.
I think SU does a great job with the colors...although i don't use the bold brights very often.
Wow, 100,000 hits!!
I have a hard time with orange and blue.
Linda Peterson
Hope you haven't picked a winner yet--I've been gone all week on vacation. hope you had a great time at convention!! I can't wait to hear all about it! My problem is using something bright like yo yo yellow or something purple like orchid opulance.
Congrats - 100,000 hits WOW... I would love to see what you can do with the new in colors.
Michele, Congrats on your 100,000th hit!! Woo - Hoo!! Hope you had fun at convention. Stampin'andrea kept sending pics on SCS of some of the new sets and items and such, awesome! I am sure you will also have plenty of stories to share with us, lol....
Back to colors, hmmm, I guess I have trouble with reds without making it look like valentines or Christmas.
Have a sparkling Day!

Congratulations on 100,000 hits! What a milestone!
The Stampin' Up color combination I'd love to try but just doesn't seem to work for me is Old Olive with Mellow Moss.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE your site!
The color wheel shows that orchid should look great with hunter, rose red, brilliant blue, and yo yo yellow...seriously? How's that supposed to look good?
I can't make Yo Yo Yellow work with anything!
Hi Michelle, I'm glad you made it to convention. I didn't this year; hope to next year. As for the colors I have trouble using. I have thought about this and agree with some that yoyo yellow is so bright. I seem to get stuck using blues and pinks more than anyhting. I also have trouble using the plums. So there you go. Congrats on hitting your milestone. Linda Gray
I would have to say More Mustard. Just can't seem to get that one to work. Congrats on the 100,000 hits and glad you had a good time at convention.
Congrats on your 100,000 hits. Love visiting your blog. I have a hard time using purples.
Hi Michele! I love your blog and I agree ... it really shouldn't take Blog Candy to draw readers out! I'm going to try harder to leave random messages - hope others will do the same as it benefits everyone to hear positive comments :o) I don't really have a color combination that I've struggled with - I find so many great resources to help me out (like our SU! demo site, SCS and the SU! color wheel but I would love to see more combo's using the new colors as I'm anticipating it will take me a few months to get comfy with them :o) Take Care Michele - Lisa Burns (www.lisaburns.blogspot.com)
Although I rarely comment on the many blogs I am subscribed to, I do appreciate the ideas and inspirations you share. Congrats on 100K hits!
Congrats on 100,000 hits ! Oranges are the colors I have trouble with !
