I got 33, but that's really dumb.

There are a ton of colors I entered that aren't in the list, and the list they are referring to has some questionable entries at best.

I emailed them requesting "Johnson County Beige" be added to the list. 

Oh - and I got 29.  Should have been 30 if the aforementioned color was accepted.

I got 34. I kept entering pastel colors I have in my kit and they can't saying it wasn't a color. Since when is yellow-orange not a color (Crayola says so!) and pear is?

Apparently they did not ask Hallmark what all the colors are.
