Pantone Color Report, 2011/ Blog Banner

I absolutely love browsing the Pantone website. A few years ago, Tina, of the darling blog, "Luphia Loves" redesigned my blog's banner. We used three of the colors from the 2009 Pantone color report. While I'm still wild about my banner, I'm thinking about updating the colors to reflect the most recent Pantone choices. I'd like to pick three that go well together, but would love your input as well! A few of my favorite combos are:

1. Honeysuckle background, deep teal + orchid hush accents
2. Nougat background, phlox + quarry accents
3. Emberglow background, orchid hush + quarry accents

Do you have an eye for design and an opinion to share? Please, feel free to leave it in the comment box & I will make a personal thank you to you when I do the redesign!

marni zarr said...: i too love perusing pantone! love this year's honeysuckle so i'll go with choice #1 although #3 is a tight second. can't wait to hear what you choose, xo!; March 5, 2011 at 2:53 PM
Fit With Flash said...: Bamboo
Emberglow
Phlox. Either you take them or I will ; ); March 5, 2011 at 6:18 PM
Anonymous said...: Hmmm...I'm going to have to check out this site! Here is what I like
1) Bamboo, coffee, nougat (but that might be more of a fall look).
2) I love any of the 1st 4 colors because they are so happy and spring like but really you can't go wrong with the choices you have already suggested.

Unknown said...: I'm liking bamboo, emberglow and deep teal together. Bamboo and emberglow would bring the spring while deep teal would bring the dramatics.; March 7, 2011 at 11:27 AM
dee said...: Of these, I'd have to go with choice #3. But I think Emberglow, Phlox and Cedar would be great, too. I love purple and orange together, as well as purple and sage. See the Fendi collection above, namely the 5th image from the bottom.; March 8, 2011 at 7:22 AM
Unknown said...: i'm feeling bamboo, orchid and quarry...then again, I'm one of those people who needs to see the colors in my hands...still i love your choices. x and i'm with bee, purple and orange together rock my world...; March 8, 2011 at 4:13 PM
