Color Challenge : AQUA

This color has been such a trend for a while now, and I have to admit, that I do like it with red, and white...I threw in some pink for good measure...  Not very original, but sometimes, 
a good combo, is just...

A good combo. 

I did throw in some lime green, I do rather like that!  What will you do to spruce it up?

This could be tricky. Aqua is someplace between mint green and turquoise. Ready for the challenge, just have to finish the mint green block.

Just made a executive decision, aqua is green blue, turquoise is blue green. Still holding out for a turquoise week.

I knew it was coming! I have a little stack of aquas ready to go!

No ice cream this week though. :( But it is a nice cool color for the hot weather we're expecting later this week.

Why reinvent the wheel? Aqua, red and white is a gorgeous combo!

I know this color is now trendy, but the first thing I thought of when I saw the color was "eye shadow." I think this might call for some black (eye liner) as part of the mix.

THANK YOU...I had SO many problems last week with 'mint' green...I kept wanting to throw in aqua but I KNEW this week was coming...ahhhhhhh.

OK cancel my previous executive decision about aqua. My first collection was just mint green in the dark. So now it's the turquoise green collection. This one was hard. Too green, too blue, hopefully now it is just right.. Should have pictures on Friday. Temps in the upper 90s = sewing in the basement!
