Colour Combo Blog Hop - May 2019

Products listed in bold are available in My Online Store, please see the bottom of the post for a complete list of Product Purchase Links under the Blog Roll.
 DISCLAIMER: this is an International blog hop...I am in the United States, and I can only do business with those in my country, or those who have an APO/FPO address for shipping. So sorry for any inconvenience!

For my project this month, I'm going to have to go back to some #simplestamping (using just stamps, ink, and paper) because I've been sick for over a week now with an exhausting chest cold. Please keep your fingers crossed for me that it doesn't turn into pneumonia...ain't nobody got time for that! I am featuring an upcoming stamp set called Free As A Bird that you'll see in the Stampin' Up! 2019-2020 Annual Catalog debuts on June 4th.

Now, you can argue with me and say my project isn't #simplestamping because I used Blender Pens on it, but you will lose that argument. If fussy-cutting counts as #simplestamping, then dipping a clear marker in ink and coloring with it sure as heck counts! Seriously, fussy-cutting is an 'F' word in my craft room. But I did it for this project because that's the look I wanted. I wonder how much I would need to win in the lottery to commission a set of dies from Stampin' Up! for this stamp set?

Oh - and here's another juicy tidbit about me...I hate Blackberry Bliss. So, in a way, it's great to participate in color challenges with it, because otherwise I'd likely never use the supplies I bought in that color! Speaking of colors, you might be wondering how I got the green leaves on the branch. Yep, those leaves are GREEN, and I didn't even cheat. I found out that Balmy Blue mixed with Mango Melody gives me a passable green. Again, if I had not restricted myself to the colors of the challenge, I never would have known that. I love this blog hop! 💖
