What retired or previous SU In colours would you love to see come back?
This has likely come up before, but the thread about our favourite all time SU colours brought it to mind. If you could have 3 colours return, which ones would you choose?
I would love to see:
* Pistachio Pudding
* Almost Amethyst
* Mellow Moss
Mossy MeadowBlackBerry Bliss
Mint Macaron
Baked Brown Sugar
Riding Hood Red
Midnight Muse
River Rock (way underrated as a good new neutral!)
Those are my top picks, I didn't go way back to some I miss like Bordering Blue and Sage Shadow. Also, I didn't like Orchid Opulence until recently and now it's too late.

i just pulled our river rock last night. i love it w/white.and a card base of black.
Mellow Moss, YoYo Yellow, Only Orange, Green Galore, Brilliant Blue. Summer Sun--my inkpad on this one is coming apart, but I keep finding refills on Ebay. I love this color! I do let SU know from time to time that it would sure be nice to have these core colors come back around.

I can't begin to narrow down to 3. Almost every SU color I love is a retired In Color. I've started searching for matching colors in brands that don't retire their colors.
Barely banana, baja breeze, certainly celery, mellow moss. I miss those soft hues of colors.

Strawberry slush
I am overly tired of the grayed-out colors (called tones). That's when you take a clear color and add both black and white (aka some shade of gray) to it. To me they are gloomy colors, even if they can be considered "pretty". Almost all the purples and greens in the current color families are toned. By count, 13 of the 30 colors (excluding the neutrals) and 6 of the 10 current in colors are toned. Too much for me.
Mossy Meadow was and still is my go-to color for ferns, wreaths, leaves, basically any image for foliage. I have a refill but wish this color would return.
