Hiya all!
Sorry I'm late! I slept in!
And I had not kept this post scheduled! LOL!
So yup, you all are right yesterday's color was Frost!!!
What a lovely blue hued neutral will it make!!!
And here's today's color (puzzle as somebody says ;) Lisa!)
And here are your hints!
1. The name is derived from the Greek γέρανος, géranos, or γερανός, geranós, crane. The English name "cranesbill" derives from the appearance of the fruit capsule of some of the species
2. There is a place by this name in South Australia and a township in Valley County, Nebraska!
3. _ E _ _ _ I U _

For the complementary scheme, I paired it with Capri
What a wonderful pair they make!
For the creative combo, I paired it with Purple and Lavender to make a powerful scheme.

ReplyDeletegeranium! Not a flower I like too much, but the color is pretty! I'm not sure I have ever seen a geranium in that color! If I had, maybe I'd like the flower better!

ReplyDeleteBased on your clues, I think that this color is Geranium, but somehow the color itself doesn't really remind me of a geranium flower. Hmmm...
