1B:<\/span><\/span><\/strong> Peony <\/span>I have always loved this gorgeous Peony Flowers that bloom in my garden during the Springtime. A couple of years back, we picked a whole bunch of the blossoms to take to my parents 40th Wedding anniversary. Everyone was delighted to have the brilliant color as part of the celebration. It is a very fond memory for me.<\/span><\/p>\n But I’m a bit concerned this year. Due to some unseasonably warm weather for us up here in Vancouver over the last few weeks, the buds for my peonies are already peeking out of the soil. A severe cold snap at this stage would definitely harm them. And that could mean no Spring bloom :'(<\/span><\/p>\n If that happens though, at least I have photos thanks to my husband Doug. He is the one that snapped the picture shown above. As soon as I saw it, I could feel the inspiration coming on to create a polymer clay color palette for you guys. And now here it is.<\/span><\/p>\n The recipes for each of the following 4 Spring colors will be released during the month of February in Volume-021 [B-series]. Everyone who is subscribed to my Polymer Clay Guest List<\/a> will be able to download them for free. They will be emailed to you one per week on Friday Mornings throughout the month of February:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n Peony<\/em> is the sultry Hot Pink so dominant in this wonderful Peony blossom. Daisy<\/em> is a soft creamy white of a Daisy that makes a pretty garden companion for the Peony. Moss<\/em> is the greenish brown of the moss that covers the damp rocks and soil under the Peony bushes. And Mushroom<\/em> is the deep soft brown of the tiny mushrooms, growing in the shadows of the towering flowers.<\/span><\/p>\n Your recipes for different colors are priceless and such a time saver. I took index cards, printed the color and recipe on them then glued a baked sample on the card. Now when I need that just so color I can just find it on my index card and whip it up with out the waste and mistakes of finding just what one I need. Fantastic!! Thanks. <\/span>~Yvonne-B<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n I’m new at polymer clay but after encouragement from Cindy on my blog I got up enough courage to start playing. Color has been fascinating for me. After doing some color mixing experiments that went horribly wrong, I am excited to start using the color recipe cards!<\/span><\/span> <\/span> ~Judith-R<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n I love how you take inspiration for color palettes from your environment! It’s so much more fun than just looking at color swatches.<\/span> ~Karen-B<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n The recipe names listed above are from the Volume-021 B-Series.
