    Ah, I just had to nest them properly: 

    <span class="cat-links">
	<?php
	foreach((get_the_category()) as $childcat) {
	if (cat_is_ancestor_of(3, $childcat)) {
	echo 'Color: '. '<a href="'.get_category_link($childcat->cat_ID).'">';
 echo $childcat->cat_name . '</a>';
	}
	if (cat_is_ancestor_of(10, $childcat)) {
	echo 'Shape: '. '<a href="'.get_category_link($childcat->cat_ID).'">';
 echo $childcat->cat_name . '</a>';
	}
	}
	?>
</span>
<?php endif; // End if categories ?>

    Last step, need them displayed in parent ID order. By default, content is displayed by Child alpha order. Changed get_the_category() to get_the_category('orderby=ID&order=ASC'). No joy.

    Any ideas?
