Check under the input shaft of the water pump. If there is a colored streak, it's probably leaking there.

Leaking head gasket could allow coolant to pass out the exhaust. There would be a sweet smell at the tail pipe.

Had a problem like this once. Have the radiator pressure tested and look for leaks. Could be coming from the weep hole as stated above. Generally if antifreeze is in the exhaust the tail pipe will blow white smoke. My problem was a frost plug had a small rust crack in it allowing the coolant to escape and burn off the exhaust. Same problem as what you are experiencing. Drive the car get it hot and open the hood to see if you can smell the antifreeze. If you can there is a leak somewhere. A bad radiator cap will do this also.
