What kind of IR filter would I need to take colored pictures with a digital camera?

You are a little confused.
Red, Green and Blue are the colours of light that make coloured pictures
IR is an invisible light frequency and an IR filter cuts off all the other light frequencies but IR
You may be thinking of a polarizing filter to enhance colour in photographs

Hmm, i think you're confused a bit there. IR filters ( Infra-red ) take most o the light from the images, so, you'll end up with a reddish other worldly image. It could be a nice effect though. I think you're talking about Polarizers or color filters, they'll add different artistic notes to your photos. Only the polarizer with have effect on colored photographs, to use the colored ones, you're going to have to shoot in black and white:

The size of filter you get depends on the lens you're using, there's no all-in-one filter. Hope it all goes well.
