BeckyBo334 it will be helpful, if you read the MSFT Documentations once before applying the function. However, you could use one of the followings, also instead of hardcoding the colors count needed place them in some range and use it as a reference like shown below.

=SUM(COUNTIF(D2:D12,HSTACK("blue","green","purple","")))
Or, Color refers to range F6:F8 (you may need to change the cell range as per your suit)
=SUM(COUNTIF(D2:D12,Color))
