Pink Saturday - August 1, 2009

Happy Pink Saturday!

My pink contribution for this Pink Saturday is this wonderful pink butterfly rock.  This was painted for me by Donna at Mourning Dove Cottage.  Thank you, Donna.  I love this, and I have placed it here on my desk so that I see it while I am working.  Your kindness will brighten my every day.

If you haven't visited Donna's wonderful blog, please treat yourself by getting to know her.  Donna and her husband are both talented artists, and they create lovely and whimsical art.  You should also go by their Etsy Shop, Whimsy Two.

This week we have one hundred sixty-five (165) participants in Pink Saturday.  There are seven new participants, and you will find them at the bottom of the list.  Let's all take time to welcome them to Pink Saturday

Please take the time to visit other participants, and leave a comment to let them know you stopped by to enjoy their pink.  Pink Saturday is about having fun, and giving us a chance to meet others in the blogging community.  I promise you it is worth the effort because you will not only see lots of pink, you will meet incredibly nice and talented people.  Please refer to my post dated January 8 for more information about Pink Saturday.

Remember that my reminder e-mail stated I needed your plan for participating today no later than 8 a.m. EST yesterday.  If you don't see your name and link here it is because I did not receive your plan for participating by that time.

I want to thank those of you that take the time to leave me a comment.  I love reading what you all have to say.

Bev, I just visited her Etsy shop, I love everything in there, and the crisp way that they show their work. I love that geranium note card too. Your butterfly is so lovely, and having it on your desk, will remind you how many people have been sewn together through Pink Saturday.

Happy Pink Saturday and have a lovely weekend.

Hello, Beverly!!

I just returned a bit ago from our two day road trip, and I do mean ROAD TRIP, through out a bit of Eastern Missouri!! We had a ball, even though the "treasures" were not plentiful. We ate a lot and laughed a lot--what could be better? It was a wonderful birthday trip.

I hope you had a great Pink Saturday!! Your Pink butterfly rock is darling--I know you enjoy that gift from Donna.

I'm glad you had a good week off of work---L, Dana
