I tallied the results based on the responses from my previous four poles.The 10 least popular SU inks from each colour family are listed here. Of these choices, what is your least used color?
Wow, I hope no one at SU ever sees those results. A few of my favorite colors have made the list. I love Taken with Teal and Handsome Hunter and Apricot Appeal and I use Bordering Blue fairly often. I would say my least favorite color didn't make the list and that is Glorious Green. The only thing I can find to use it for is St. Patrick's Day cards.

I have never used Summer Sun. The paper actually hurts my eyes, it's so bright. I was a bit surprised by some of the names I saw on this list, however. I love handsome hunter, bordering blue, apricot appeal, and almost amethyst. In fact, the only two colors on this list that I could live without are cameo coral and summer sun. The rest are must haves, in my opinion.

Some of these inks are ones I use alot and love, but I had to vote for Yo Yo Yellow. I like all colors, though, I just use the other yellows more. I agree with emarj about Glorious Green--it's kind of a funny green. I actually liked Forest Foliage better than Handsome Hunter. But they all have their uses. Sometimes I think I just need to play with a color a little more and it might grow on me!
I am suprised that Almost Amethyst was a least used color... I love it, it's one of my top 10 for sure!! It goes good with Egglplant, Rose, Celery, Sage, Bashful Blue... so much stuff!! Anyways, on topic..... I never use YoYo Yellow, I got it with my free set of ink pads (Bold Brights) with my starter kit in August, and I honestly have used the ink pad once, and NEVER used my cardstock(from my assorted pack).... NEVER!!!
I wouldn't really go by that list as the least liked colors. I have been a demo for awhile and a lot of those are my top selling colors. The one color that I don't see on there that is my least favorite is Blush Blossom. I LOVE Yo Yo Yellow and use it A LOT!! I also work with children in my church so I tend to use the primary colors.
yoyo yellow, handsome hunter, cameo coral. But the color I hate most is not listed here. Itz glorious green. With beautiful green shades like celery, old olive, artichoke I think itz time SU replaces glorious green.
Ladies, if there are colors you have that you are not using, you need to buy the color coach. There were so many colors I had that I didn't use. Don't like Cameo Coral? Try it with rose red, barely banana and certainly celery. It's beautiful. Don't like Handsome Hunter? Try it with Sage Shadow, Night of Navy and Blush Blossom. Seriously, get it! Almost Amethyst? Try it with Certainly Celery, Blush Blossom and Apricot Appeal.
I really don't have any "never-used" or "least-used" colors. When I get stuck for inspiration I pick out colors (like Glorious Green, YoYo Yellow etc) that normally I'll only use as accents - make them the base of my project and use the color coach for the co-ordinating colors. Really, the only color I don't use too often is the Blush Blossom CS, I use the marker and Ink all the time tho for coloring (perfect for skin tones) - but now w/ the new Dynamic Duos on the color coach I may actually be using up my BB CS for once!!
