I have black stazon and red and I love them both! I just wondered who out there has all the colors and if you find you use them all. I was thinking of ordering the rest but don't want to spend the money if I am not going to use them.
I am only short 2 of the colors. I use them alot when making the coasters & polyshrink. I bought them at Hobby Lobby when they had 50% off all ink pads. I would of bought them all but the other colors where out.

Between my mother and myself we have all of the colors. I use them all of the time (more than my mother) and to be truthful I wish they would come out with more colors.
They happen to be on sale at Joann's right now. HTH...
Before I discovered SCS and tile stamping, I thought the only color I needed was black. Well, now I have four colors - only because they are the only colors I could find at Hobby Lobby and Michaels. Being the cheapskate that I am, I couldn't see spending $8 on an ink pad. The 50% off Hobby Lobby sales and 40% off coupons at Michaels make them more affordable.
Tsukinenko is planning to roll out at least five new colors at CHA (the Craft and Hobby Association trade show) in February - I have a friend who owns a scrapbooking buisness, and her rep told her they were planning to debut a true red, white, pastel blue, pastel green, and pastel pink. CHA is in February, so hopefully those will make it to the new catty!
The only colors I have are the brown and the olive, and I find myself using the brown a LOT more than I thought I would!
I have all of the colors. My Dh ordered me all of the inks, refills, and the cleaner from ...sorry ladies... ebay for $70.99. He said that was the best price he could find. And he even looked into ordering them straight from Tsuke.... oh you know what I am trying to spell. I can honestly say that when I would get together with my friend who had them all I would mostly use black. But it was so nice to have the options of all of the colors. I hope to use all of the colors for tons of things.... but right now I can only stare a the pretty box under the christmas tree. He says I got a new table and chairs and he gave me his office as a stamp room as an early gift. There is no way I am getting those inks early. He is still mad that I found out he ordered them. Well HELLO goofball.... don't use the joint account that I balance. I can't wait for christmas now.

I think...
I think I have all the colors, I have only used black, red and green. I used them for tiles, but didn't like how the red and green came out on the tiles, so for me, I think I am only going to use black and sharpies from now on. I don't stamp on Polyshrink much, again I use black stazon and then sharpies.
I have all the colors and use all of them but mostly black. I do a lot of things on shrink paper and transparencies.

That's great news about the True Red - I despise the Blazing Red is Pink!! But I love StazOn, so I deal with it!
I only have the forest green. I bought it because they were out of black - it was the next closest thing. I used it on a lot of ornaments and really like how they turned out. I think I will only get blue and black yet, since I color them with Sharpies anyway.
Between my SIL and me we have the black, blue, mustard, red, and brown. I really like the blue. I would get them all if I had a store around here where I could get them cheaper. Our Michael's doesn't carry them.
I have all the colors. I used the pumpkin for skin tone on angels for in the glass ornaments. Barely any on and it gave a flesh tone.
I use my stazon inks all the time. glass, terracotta, tiles, slick cardstock. I have some slick silver cardstock, everthig else smears on it.
I'm looking forward to new colors.
Hello,
I just had to add to this post.
I buy ALL my stazon pads and cleaner from a Lady I met, she gives AWESOME prices, and I would recommend her anytime. She is NOT a demo, so its all legit (sp).
Here are her prices, and her info. She's great with communication, tell her I sent you!!!

I love my staz-on colors - I have about 5 of them and can't wait to get the rest...
One thing I just discovered is the fact they stay just wet enough to take embossing powder - if you do it fast...I don't have any of the craft pads to be able to do colored embossing (with clear or holographic powders) and I only have a few of the larger sized pads that I could easily do the versamrk and color trick...
I did a card the other day and I stamped using black staz-on and quickly dumped some holigraphic EP on it, turned on my heat gun - came out great....

How interesting. Does it come out like a shiny black. When ever I try and do that with my ink it doesn't work so well. I wonder if it is because I was using the classic pads. I can't get it to do what I think it is suppose to do.
Between my mother and myself we have all of the colors. I use them all of the time (more than my mother) and to be truthful I wish they would come out with more colors.
They happen to be on sale at Joann's right now. HTH...
FYI, here's a link to Tsukineko, the company that manufactures Stazon, Versa. etc. Here you will find some good info. and projects.
Thanks for the info. I went to this site and ordered all but black and red. 5.99 is a good deal! Package should arrive in two days YEAH!!
I have all the colors, and so far I find that I use all of them quite a bit except for orange, and the olive green (I like the forest green one better) . but even though I don't realy use them much I still think they're great in their place. I mean what good would a red pumpkin be? just my $0.02
