Hello all. :)
This is a tricky one.
The Treehouse palette isn't showing up when I add the code to the Admin panel.
I'm pretty sure my code and file structure is correct.
I've correctly... I think linked up the child theme. My theme is called wpthemecustomizer and the child is wpthemecustomizer-child.
child-theme (d)
functions.php
style.css
admin-colors (d)
treehouse (d) - a folder for a new palette of admin colours
colors.css
And here's my code in my child theme functions.php file.
function _wpt_admin_color_schemes() {
$theme_directory = get_stylesheet_directory_uri();
wp_admin_css_color(
'treehouse', __('Treehouse'),
//use concatenation to build the path to the CSS file that adds controlls the view of the palette.
$theme_directory . '/admin-colors/treehouse/colors.css',
//contains an array og hexadecimal codes to display on Admin area as list of colours
array('#384047', '#5bc67b', '#838cc7','#ffffff')
);
}
add_action('admin_init', 'wpt_admin_color_schemes');
Help! :)

I experienced the same issue, after a bit of googling I found this answer which works
function new_color_scheme() {
wp_admin_css_color(
'new', __( 'NEW' ),
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/admin-colors/new/colors.css',
array( '#0051ba', '#f9d616', '#F50057', '#FF4081' )
);
}
add_action( 'admin_init', 'new_color_scheme');
