With gorgeous colors, like these, from Pantone's 2015 spring spread, it is easy to whip up a few stunning (& trendy) projects! So, today, we asked a few of our color experts to choose their favorites and create a Prima project with them! Are you as excited as I am to see which colors they mixed together?
Cari Fennell's sublime Bloom Girl cards cover more than just one of the color trends, beautifully mixing Scuba Blue, Lucite Green and Strawberry Ice with Watercolor Pencil Sets, Art Ingredients, and Aire flower vines. Perfect color combos for springtime, don't you think?

Absolutely adorable. That's what this sweet layout by Wendy Morris-Saponaro is! Featuring three different colors this design has the perfect eye-catching proportions: 2/3 strawberry ice (created with Peony Color Bloom Spray), 1/3 glacier gray (created with the gorgeous photo & Bella Rouge musical paper), and a smattering of custard- created with washi tape!
Of course we had to combine trendy colors with one of the BIGGEST papercraft trends right now: planners! WaiSam Ho's planner is filled with sherbet colors totally on trend for 2015! In fact, the whole Coffee Break line is filled with creamy yellow custard, retro Lucite green, splashes of feminine strawberry ice, and soft licorice to add delightful contrast.

Custard-colored Bella Rouge paper provides the warm base for a wonderful mix of bolder colors on top achieved with art mediums (classic blue, aquamarine), stencil work (Marsala), number stickers (custard), and flowers!
