Escorted {Confetti}

How cute is this? These simple fun circular cutouts resemble confetti and scream it's time for a party. Not to mention, they are insanely simple to make! With a basic circular cut out from your craft store, some brightly colored card stock, push pins and metallic fabric, this escort card board can be made in a flash and looks spectacular. I love the use of bright pinks and oranges accented by neutrals like navy white and metallic. This is definitely the type of project where many colors is better than few. Just like the confetti from your parties as a kid, these escort cards should scream of mix matched color to get your point across! 

Color Me {Coral & Mint}

I think this might be one of my favorite color combinations of all time. It's bright, vibrant, and makes a big impact. The eye catching combo is perfect for any summer soiree portraying a feeling of fun and relaxation. I'm a big believer that the color scheme sets the mood for the event. Black and white fairs for formal affairs, deep purples and browns are wonderful for fall, and sunny colors are ideal for summer fun. Mix in metallic gold to keep it modern and add an extra punch.

With coral blooms in abundance, place them in gold vases atop mint linens to carry out the color scheme. Drop bits of green and blue food color into cocktails and encourage guests to dress the scheme.  It makes such an impact when every aspect of your event is in the color combination of your choosing.

Color Me: Raspberry

Happy Monday! How is everyone doing with the time change? I must admit I'm still a little tired. That's okay though because in my book it's officially spring! One of my favorite flavors and colors for spring is raspberry. The light, refreshing taste and vibrant hue are a wonderful welcome from the dull heaviness of winter. Pair the shade with light sky blue to allow it's vibrancy to really pop. Imagine rich raspberry florals atop a printed sky blue linen. Can you imagine the gorgeousness? Intensify the color by treating guests with raspberry flavored treats. Raspberry macaroon with a lemon filling is a light and refreshing dessert perfect for the season. Serve up champagne topped with a little fresh raspberry puree and a raspberry garnish and your guests will be screaming of spring as much as you and your soiree!

Color Me {Tropical}

Happy Monday! Lately there has been a lot of talk about summer going around my house. Sailing trips to tropical locations and lazy days on the water have left me inspired and dreaming of crystal clear turquoise waters and the vibrant hues that surround it. Seeing colorful images of summer days leaves me with an instant sense of relaxation. I'm taken back to when I was younger and used to run around my quaint little beach town in a bathing suit, cover up, sunglasses, and no shoes. Can't wait to get to the beach this summer? Throw a tropical soiree one weekend for you and your friend to relax from the week while imagining you are far away laying by the crystal clear waters of the caribbean. Bright colors, bold patterns, palm frawns, and maybe even a little sand in your back yard. Pull out the lawn chairs, put an umbrella in your drink, and relax!
