Hi guys, Would you guys be able to tell me how to acheive this green color? It seems to mean that it is a sage color. Or maybe moss? Have a look and let me know what you think.

I have to match the invitations and I am worried about mixing the color. I know I can always try in a small amount, but I want to make sure I have the colors already...and I know I need to buy some.

I would love an Americolor gel...

Thanks, Julia

Can't see the pic too well, but what about Americolor Mint green? It is not really minty, more soft.

Try either juniper green or moss green from Wilton

If the color turns out too bright green, try adding a tiny bit of pink. This will make it a bit duller. It doesn't take much, so be careful.

I agree, I think the moss green might be a good match...

The juniper green is what I used in my camo cake, you can see the pic. I used a lot to get this shade, just use less, for lighter shade. I've not tried the moss. Wilton also makes a white-white and you can add it to any color that you get too dark. Just be careful, because your color will darken after a couple of hours.
