Pantone Predicts Next Years Favorite Color Will Be Mimosa
Mimosa is a “vibrant shade of yellow illustrated by the flowers of some Mimosa trees as well as the brunch favorite cocktail…”
The official color expert Pantone is predicting Mimosa to be the favorite shade of 2009 based on spring fashion collections. Carolina Herrerra refers to it as “Marigold.” Evidently even the yellow polka-dot bikini will be back in fashion!

Basic Grey’s Urban Prairie features yellow with pink and Ambrosia is a sophisticated pairing of yellows and oranges and golds with greys and blacks. If you like the Ambrosia color palette but you are a digital scrapper you should check out this new digi-kit at two peas. Or this one which is more yellow than orange. My favorite is this one which pairs the yellow with brown and a hint of sky blue!
Since Owls are hot this fall maybe little yellow chickies will be all the rage next spring? I’m looking for Hero Arts and Prima to dress the “cute” chicks with a little more “style.” For summer I’m thinking ultra cool sun graphics with flourishes galore, happy sunflowers and bumblebees! Better pick up Tim Holtz’s mustard seed distress ink!
