Hi everyone! I was wondering what color to you use most in your paper creations and what color do you need to be challenged to use more?
For me, I use red, brown and black most. I need to be inspired to use yellow and orange...

Wow... great question! Except... I don't know the answer exactly mainly because I love to use patterned paper...LOTS of it, which of course includes many colors... but I'd say the hardest combination for me is red and black...

I actually had to look at my album to see what colors I have been using...lol I use a lot of Kraft, pinks and reds. I don't see much yellow or orange in there. Maybe I should try those two colors more. Although, I just bought some new paper yesterday...yeah pink..lol

I use a lot of pink but without even realizing it. But I love to use orange and gray even though most other people don't care for it. I'm a rebel I guess. Hee hee! Using any primary colors are always a challenge for me. I was the kind of girl who never wanted the box of eight Crayolas. I wanted the large box with 72 colors!

I go in streaks - lots of black for awhile, then lots of pink, then lots of something .... Right now it is Kraft. Yeh, I am not so very fond of primary colors either, though I see I have been using some red lately.... I would like to do more purple, since it IS my favorite color (so far this year) but I am always afraid a little purple goes a long long way. Part of why I got involved in this craft is that I am so very fond of lots of colors together, like looking at the paint sample board - I think that is beautiful. So I can own lots of colors, whether they are flowers, ribbons, markers, paper blah blah blah.

I seem to go with blue, orange, green. I don't do much with yellow. I too use a lot of patterned paper.

What a great question! I actually forget to use kraft and I love it so much! I think once I get my craft space/supplies organized (and am almost there after spending a lot of my holiday vacation time working on it), I'll actually see it to use it! I find myself using chocolate a lot paired up with everything from blue to pink to other neutrals.

I steer toward soft blues, greens, pinks, and browns. Primary colors are hard for me and I hardly ever use yellow or orange.

I scrap all colours as I love coloured patterned paper so anything from bright colours to neutrals. A lot also depends on the photo I am scrapping.

I'm a PAPER FANATIC so I used all types of colors. I do use a lot of bright colors (pinks, purples, etc.) I'm also hooked on kraft. I need to use black and red more too.

Great question!! I use a lot of brown! I'd like to think I use all the colors but when a few of you said yellow and orange.. I don't think I use those colors much either.
