Sharon lives in Australia, and she is a fabulously talented paper design artist. Her works are colorful, exciting, fun and guaranteed to bring a big smile to your face. So treat yourself today by clicking over to meet Sharon. You'll be glad you did because she has a big smile waiting for you.
Take a minute to go meet Sharon, and please introduce yourself.

- Sharon at Sharon's Showcase
I’m Sharon from Sharon’s Showcase (and the land Down Under) and I’m thrilled to be featured at “Pink Saturday” this week!
I’ve only recently ‘discovered’ Pink Saturday and have only been ‘blogging’ since the beginning of the year but I have been crafting for half of my life and PINK is one of my favourite colours!
I just can’t believe the most amazing “pink” creations that everyone shares each Saturday – such wonderful inspiration for us all and a big thank you to Beverly for running this amazing “event”!!
It’s a bit ironic really that my ‘occupation’ is a Greenkeeper and the opportunity for me to wear pink and be ‘girly’ is few and far between but I’ll create with pink at any opportunity so I hope you love my “pink” creations for you this week and of course I’ve included a picture of some of my “pink” supplies!!
I’d love you to stop by my blog and see my creations and my sometimes “weird” sense of humour!
I can’t wait to see all of your creations this week too – have an amazing PINK SATURDAY!!!!!*****************************************
Please e-mail me if you are interested in being
the featured blog at a future date.
Today for Pink Saturday I am sharing
this photo taken especially for me to share with you.
My sweet twelve year old grandson recently visited
the Smithsonian in Washington, DC,
and he said he just had to get this photo for me.
This is one gorgeous and huge pink quartz.
Isn't he the best?!♥♥♥
Happy Pink Saturday Beverly! I look forward to this party each week!!
Lots of love and hugs,
Susan and Bentley

Posted by: RubyJean | July 08, 2011 at 03:32 PM
That is one strikingly pink rock. It is is huge and such a rich color. Sounds like your family is like mine. No matter where they go, they think of me and make pictures for my blog. At least, they are thinking of me. Sorry I was late linking in, but had an appointment that inferred. Take care.
Posted by: LaVoice | July 08, 2011 at 03:32 PM
Your grandson is a darling for being so thoughtful. For a twelve year boy to take the time to make a picture of something pink for his grandmommy is awesome! It a great photo. Thanks for introducing Sharon, what a talented artist. i look forward to visiting her blog.
Happy Pink Saturday Beverly, and as always, thanks for hosting a great party.

How precious of your grandson to take that awesome photo just for you! I hope to be back soon. I'm studying, and gathering supplies, and as soon as my back is better, will start dabbling in mixed media art. One thing is for sure, my work will have pink in it and I know just where to showcase it!! :)

Happy Pink Saturday Beverly Sweetie...
Oh my what a gorgeous share today. I love this beautiful pink quartz that
your grandson was so generous in sharing. What a find at the museum.
It appears you have trained him well about sharing pink as well. Please
thank him for being on the look out for such a beauty. I SO enjoyed seeing
it.
Hope you have a gorgeous Pink Saturday and a beautiful weekend.
Many hugs and much love from Phoenix, Sherry

Hi Beverly.
Finally able to play again this week, and put wrong link on post. Came back and put correct link on second one, but do not know how to get rid of first.
Sorry for trouble. I'll do better next time.

Hi Beverly, I just didn't get to you until now. Saturday night at Pickin on the Square was great. Cody and Molly played their music and Molly sang two songs. There was about 200 plus people in attendance and the kids had lots of applause. We had so much fun. Everyone went to bed late. John and Diana just now went to bed.
I love the pink quartz but most of all I love how sweet your grandson was to take this photo for your Pink Saturday. It is very beautiful.
It is late so I am hitting the hay too.
Love you, Jeanne
