Default Need color advice for baby

I am making baby shower invites for my sister-in-law and I was wondering what green would be good for a boy or girl? Mint Melody? I was thinking of doing barely banana for the yellow. Or do you have other color combinations that could be boy or girl?
TIA,
Jen

I think Barely Banana and Mellow Moss are really nice for a boy or girl baby card!

I agree with Jennie Barely Banana And Mellow Moss. But it could be nice sticking with Almost Amethyst(girl) Barely Banana(boy) What set were you planning to use? I attached a card I did, pale plum and barely banana-Just to give you an idea of what you can do. Sometimes it helps to see something firsthand Good Luck

do you have time to preorder the new celery? That might look nice, otherwise I would either go with the sage shadow or mellow moss with the barely banana.

Don't forget to show us how they turn out.

I did baby shower invites once in almost amethyst and barely banana and they looked good. There is also the pink/blue combo. And, depending upon your style, and your friend's style, think bold! yo yo yellow and real red and white can be the basis of a very cute card -- and it is different!

I really have until the end of July to finish these, but I am flying to Chicago for a wedding and wanted to show the mom a sample in 2 weeks. I will post my one idea (with wrong colors, I was just trying to see the idea) The other one I want to try is a waterfall card with a piece of the info on each square. I will try to post that when I finish.

I like your sample on your gallery but I would go with barely banana and mellow moss.

I helped make what seems like a BAZILLION baby thank you cards in moss/banana, and I don't I'll ever look at either color the same again!

A few ideas I haven't seen posted yet.. Blush Blossom/Almost Amethyst or Blush Blossom/Sage Shadow....

I love mellow moss and barely banana for babies; I did my own baby announcements with them. Here is the link:

I would choose sage shadow and barely banana, moss is nice but kinda bland for a baby.
