I have an upcoming wedding where I'll need to use the colors of sage green and champagne alternately on separate tiers. I'm having no luck with mixing guides finding either of these two. I would appreciate being pointed in the right direction on how to come up with these two icing colors.

Thanks a bunch!!!

I started with moss green and then worked at matching it to the ribbon I was using by adding other greens to it til I came up with something very close.

I'm glad you asked this -- Sage Green is one of my favorite colors!

depending on the shade of sage green you are looking for, I did one this weekend where I did leaves in a sage color. I mixed a little bit of leaf green with willow green and add just a touch of brown to take the bright green-ness out of it.
