Based on the IRC discussion, Ben needs a *monochrome* version of the
logo for cheap printing, which is against the logo usage guidelines.
Using only the wordmark would be, IMO, not pretty enough, the price for
color printing is prohibitive.
I think we may try to use some type of dithering to emulate more than
one color, but not sure a) if we want to allow such usage b) the printer
will be capable.
So more than one color is okay just a bit more expensive (I believe Ben
mentioned $0.25 vs $0.60 per balloon.)
I created a PickPic page for the project:

One idea is to do half the balloons one color / just the Fedora logo,
the other half have the full logo. eg
