August 2026

This month we’re celebrating — bright, citrusy, sunny, and full of zest.

But this is Colorful Options.

You always have a choice.

🎨 Your Options

💛 Option 1 – Lemongrass

Create a project featuring Lemongrass as your primary color. Think citrus yellow, fresh yellow-green, and vibrant grassy hues.

🌿 Option 2 – Yellow-Green Spectrum
Prefer a broader palette? Create a project using any shade from sunny yellow through rich green. From soft butter yellows and golden chartreuse to fresh spring greens and deep forest tones—every shade is welcome.

🌈 Option 3 – Rainbow
Go full color with a rainbow-inspired project! Bright blends, bold stripes, soft transitions, or colorful details—all are welcome.

💌 Option 4 – Cards

Create a card featuring Lemongrass, Yellow-Green, or Rainbow. Clean and simple, layered, elegant, graphic, CAS, shabby chic, vintage, mixed media—every style is welcome.

🧶 Option 5 – Other Creative Medium
Painting, crochet, knitting, quilting, sewing, home décor, digital art, scrapbooking, mixed media, and more are all welcome. If it features Lemongrass, Yellow-Green, or Rainbow, it belongs here!

There are lots of ways to play along in August — whether you are inspired by sparkling water, soft linen, a classic blue box, cozy yarn, warm copper, or a full rainbow, the choice is yours.
