This week I am featuring Kay Ellen at Kay Ellen Design. Kay Ellen first participated in Pink Saturday November 1, 2008. I must tell you that I am in love with Kay Ellen. She is everything I want to be. She is kind, giving, thoughtful, loving, beautiful and mega mega talented. She has the most incredible eye for style. I would be thrilled if she would just come over and decorate my whole house because I love everything she does. I know that you are going to love and adore her just as much as I do. Her writing and photography are stellar. Kay Ellen gets an A+ from me. Her love of God and her family and friends should serve to inspire each and every one of us. Give yourself a blessing today by clicking over to meet Kay Ellen. You'll be glad you did.

Today for Pink Saturday I am sharing
-oops! I'm having photo file problems.
I can't access the photo I wanted to share today,
so I'll share this pretty Dresden swan
which belongs to my mother.
I know some of you may have already seen this,
but it is pretty enough for a second look.









Happy Pink Saturday!
I always love KeyEllen's elegance and fabulous work!

Hi Beverly, Thank you so much for linking me today I was out and about with Andrea when it was time to link.
Kay Ellen is such a lovely person. Her feature is so nicely done. I will visit her if this computer cooperates.
You know I love your mom's swan. It is a beautiful piece of porcelain and I love swans.
Today is Andrea's birthday and we all gathered together to celebrate with pizza and carrot cake.
I will talk to you tonight.
Love you,
Jeanne

Happy Pink Saturday Beverly Sweetie...
What a gorgeous share today. I can't remember seeing this gorgeous
swan before. I love the delicate roses along her body, and the delicate
blue flowers are just the icing on the cake. That little rose on her head
is the perfect adornment and I so wish I could have seen the blue down the
front. She is SO pretty. She just glides along your Pink Saturday page
with such grace and beauty. Thank you for sharing her this beautiful
fine Pink Saturday morning.
I am so sorry I have been missing in action of late. I have spent a couple
of trips to the dentist which have been quite hard. My diabetes has taken
its tole on my poor body. Had to have some extensive work done, and yesterday
was another 3 hour episode. Wore me down, but at least I had my post half way
ready so I stuck it out. I just couldn't stay away any longer. I find such joy
here with you sweet friend. It is like me weekly piece of candy. Thank you so
much for checking on me. (I hadn't been on the computer and DH cleared the email
when I didn't get on and check it. He said there was entirely to much there to
keep.)
Have a gorgeous Pink Saturday and many, many hugs sweetie, love Sherry

I am joining in a little late with the urging from my daughter Kay Ellen.
What a lovely opportunity and treat to see you share Kay's talents and her design work on your blog.
I know she was very touched by what you shared today and I am sure you have guessed it, we are proud of her too.
I am still really going a bit slow with blogging. I seem to need a lot of guidance online.
My husband, Kay or my grandson Kyle has to help me walk through each step to post anything! oh my, ha-ha
Take Care,
Happy Pink Saturday

Enjoy this beautiful Sunday!
