I have a wedding the end of the month with these colors. I have to make mints in these colors and also sheet cakes with flowers in these colors. Bride doesn't have a swatch to match colors. I don't know where to start! Can anyone help?

For rust, start with deep orange and add a bit of brown. For champagne, I think I'd use the smallest amount of Americolor gold and maybe a touch of lemon yellow.

for rust i'm not sure, but for the champange, maybe start out with ivory and then add a touch of gold color to it....a little yellow to brighten it up....
