Orange you glad I'm hosting?

Welcome to day two of Building a Rainbow!
I'm Karen and I'll be your hostess for today's color!
Okay, not THAT kind of hostess, but boy did I love those orange Hostess cupcakes.
Which leads me to the color of the day:
Orange!

I love Orange - both the color and the flavor.
Orange is the only decent Lifesaver in the roll of five flavors.
It's the preferred color of lollipop at the bank.
It's the popsicle you fight for.

All the best flowers are orange.
My favorite chair is orange:
And let's not forget sunsets:
So naturally, orange is my go-to paint color.
(Hey look!  It's the background color of my blog!)
Looking through my flickr pool, it's by far the most used color.
So in honor of today's color, I made this collage of both new and old painted papers.
Now head on over to Daisy Yellow to join the fun!

    Wow! you do love your orange. I have to say as a child it was my least favorite color. It made me aggressive! what is THAT about?! but as I have grown and my appreciation for the role that all color plays in our lives, I have learned to lean on orange more and more. I love your passion about it!! Yay! My orange collage for today came very easy to me, so who knows, maybe I will develop a passion for it, too.

    I think it's safe to say that you do love orange! LOL I just never seem to incorporate it into my art, I think I'm going to have to give it a try. Thanks for such great inspiration!

    Growing up, orange Hostess cupcakes were the official snack food of my father's house.
