You can say "I like the blue color of the sky."  You can 
also say "I like the blue color" if are looking at a bunch 
of colors and pointing out which you like.  It sounds better 
to say "I like the color blue" if you are making a general 
statement about your preference in colors but I don't think 
that there is any grammatical rule to govern this.
