  1. Momento Black is #1. Cherry Cobbler with SU is the first in something other than black. Love your site, videos and ideas. Thanks.

  2. I use SU chocolate chip a lot. I love brown with other colors like pink and aqua and I seem to reach for that shade for a nice crisp image. Count me in on the goodies!

  4. Hmmm, I use alot of chocolate chip for a neutral, also rich razzleberry and elegant eggplant. So hard to choose just one!

  6. Hi Mary, I have always been a fan of purples. So I love the new wisteria wonder color – before that came out it was perfect plum. Both by Stampin’ Up! of course. Thanks for a chance to win blog candy! Sonnie

  10. A while back I purchased all of the Stampin Up spots. It was the best purchase ever..
    I do wish when Stampin Up comes out with the in colors they would also make stampin spots.
    My most used color ever is still chocolate. Maybe that is because I love Chocolate so much. 😉
    For right now Pool Party is right up there on my list and I did have to purchase it in a full size pad since I liked it so much. Thanks for a chance at some Blog Candy. Love your blog and visit every day.

  23. Thank you Mary for the wonderful web site you make available for all of us stampers. I follow you faithfully and love what you share. As for my favorite go to color, I would say it changes with the seasons. Looking back I think I use Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive all year long so they would be my answer of choice. Interesting because my favorite color is any shade of blue.

    I enjoy receiving your newsletter with all your beautiful cards. I love the simplicity of your
    cards, so elegant! It’s so hard to say which is my favorite stamp pad go to color. For me
    a lot has to due with the season, etc. spring is certainly celery; winter bravo burgundy and so on. I have to say I liike to do water coloring , so the black stayzon is out all the time.
    Thank you for all your inspiration, and your ideas on organization .

  35. Black Staz-On gets the most use at my house. I love my Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive a lot though too esp. with winter cards. Spring will be coming so maybe something lighter will be my favorite then. I think I want to play with white on crumb cake paper though. Ask me next week and I will probably something totally different.

    Reply
  36. It’s hard to pick a color, when I LOVE so many of them… but one of my favorites, and a no-brainer when it comes to matching and coordinating, is VERSAMARK. It brings out the richness of any color paper.

  292. Hi Mary, My go-to ink color is Early Espresso. I find myself reaching for it all the time, where I used to reach for Chocolate Chip.
    Thanks so very much for all your incredibly inspiring posts! I read every single one and have drawn so much inspiration from you. I know it takes an incredible amount of time and effort to post as much as you do — let alone coming up with the projects. Your hard work is much appreciated!
