Color Crush: Coral, Poppy, and Tangerine

This color crush was sparked when my DIY Fabric Poppy Flowers were included in a poppy-themed roundup over on the lovely Dearest Nature blog last week. Suddenly I started seeing poppy-hues everywhere and before I knew it, I had a color crush post in the making. New to my color crush this time around is the handy little color reference card at the bottom of the post. The numbers you see listed with each color on the card are the CMYK color codes (for those of you using Photoshop and other editing programs). I hope they will come in handy for you. xo Ez

My toenails are poppy! It's such a great color, and definitely gives a bit of a boost to the eyes. Love this assortment.

These colors are so bright and summery. Exactly the pick-me-up I needed today.

I love that you have included the CMYK color codes, I hope this is something you continue to do.

Love these colors! I've been seeing pops of the poppy color here and there and just love it. Gotta find something in poppy to wear because it's perfect for summer. ~Heidi

Such vivid summer colors, even the air vibrates...this somehow reminds me of summer festivals and bonfires :)

I love these colors but cannot wear the more orangey tones with my skin coloring -- makes me look slightly jaundiced. :D BUT I heart me some coral because it is one of my favorite pink tones (I'm a pink girl!) and looks great on me. Thanks for sharing!

[Lisa]

Oh I love this collection... they are the perfect, rich, full corals - delicious!

[Christine]

Swooon... Love the color combination! Great for the summer season!

Oh, I love this one!
