Of course, now as a senior citizen with white hair, I really love all blues, wear it, and use it often on my cards. Still don't like orange, though.Jeanne Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08057481326878503381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-25182080821405220902013-04-12T17:36:29.930-04:002013-04-12T17:36:29.930-04:00I don't think there are any colors I won't...I don't think there are any colors I won't use to stamp. I wouldn't be caught dead wearing pink. and I wouldn't have it in my house, but I do occasionally use it for a baby or wedding card. I naturally tend towards earthy colors, but I will use my un-favourites on cards for people that wear or decorate in those colors. Really, no matter how hideous a color is (or a designer paper), it is the perfect foil for something you do like, so I work them in as accents whenever possible.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03835448913758132227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-51743062940388401852013-04-12T13:35:52.451-04:002013-04-12T13:35:52.451-04:00Someone beat me to the punch, but I was also wonde...Someone beat me to the punch, but I was also wondering when you were going to start loving and using "Fairy Vomit". I have a few sheets of cardstock I have been hoarding (because I love it so much!), but I would be willing to send them to you so you could experience the joyfulness of that awesome color! : ) heehee!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06921796643732720523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-44265587765631898122013-04-12T01:49:27.218-04:002013-04-12T01:49:27.218-04:00I've tried and tried, but I just can't bri...I've tried and tried, but I just can't bring myself to use lavender unless I know it's someone's favorite color. I made a nice lavender skirt way back in junior high having saved my babysitting money for months to buy the 100% wool to make it because it was the "in" color and all the popular girls wore it. I had to go home at lunchtime and change. I decided I'd rather be unpopular than sick to my stomach. Needless to say, I never wore it again. I did overcome (sort of, though by mistake) my aversion to "insane asylum" or "government agency" green. [Having written that sentence, I realize I may have offended someone with my oxymoronic examples.] I ended up with just that color in my dining room. In my defense, it looked a lot different on the paint chip. I'm not overly thrilled with it, but I haven't painted over it yet, either. Give me a warm-tone color and I'm happy as can be. The cooler colors seem to drain me of energy. I'm not sure I could generate enough sustained energy to WORK at overcoming a color prejudice, especially since there are so many I like to use instead. I applaud your fortitude. One more trait of yours for me to envy....<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06683094014232133033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-9651451397319985892013-04-12T01:45:19.294-04:002013-04-12T01:45:19.294-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06683094014232133033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-12978159599079994172013-04-11T22:41:30.953-04:002013-04-11T22:41:30.953-04:00Great card.

It was pretty common as paint color for shutters and trim where we lived. Almost nauseating to me. Now I just see it as a nice greenish aqua. <br /><br />Colors I don't like now are "muddy" light colors - pastels with a brownish or grayish tinge.

I wouldn't wear it, decorate with it, or use it on craft projects. One day I just decided it was silly to hate every shade of green, so I stated crafting with some shades... then more... and more. Then one day I wanted to buy a green shirt... green found it's way into my home decor... yadda, yadda, yadda... now I probably craft with some shade of green every day! :)Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12926830339367543223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-83327868638136030722013-04-11T08:34:49.567-04:002013-04-11T08:34:49.567-04:00I once taught a class where everyone had to make a...I once taught a class where everyone had to make a monochromatic project. I assigned the colors to be used. Several people received colors they did not like or hated just as much as your aversion to orange. By the end of the class, all had a favorite new color.<br /><br />Moral of this story is we all must face our demons!sue t.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02999921600404709041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-45845906241161452962013-04-11T08:29:59.140-04:002013-04-11T08:29:59.140-04:00Love this set!
