I have an upcoming baby shower cake and I need blush colored butter cream and mint colored fondant. How do I achieve these colors? Is blush just a super pale pink? It seems like it has another undertone to it but I can’t tell what color to add to the pink. 

And the mint fondant, again just bery light green or is there another element to it? Thanks!

Americolor makes a mint green that is really pretty.  For the blush, I would mix pink and peach.  Just go very lightly with the colors.  And remember, you want it lighter than the actual color you want because the final color will darken.
