I recently received an e-mail from one of our "pinkies", Kandy. Kandy shared with me something wonderful that her sweet daughter Elizabeth is doing, and she thought some of you would want to help. I asked Kandy to have Elizabeth write and tell us about the project she is undertaking.
I think we can all feel proud of this caring young girl.
Here is sweet Elizabeth's message:
- Gabriela at Gabriela Delworth
This is such an exciting time for Gabriela. She is having a fabulous book signing this weekend in New York. And, she wants to share this wonderful event with us by having another giveaway. You don't want to miss this one.
Book Signing Event at Barnes & Noble. Oct 1, 2011 – 1 pm to 3 pm.
And to celebrate it Gabriela is having a BOOK GIVEAWAY on her blog as well! She wants to share with you...The kit comes with "freshly pressed" flowers and leaves to get you started. Visit her for a chance to win!
Please e-mail me if you are interested in being
the featured blog at a future date.
Thank you,
Beverly

Elizabeth and Gabriela are two special people. I live very far so I can not send fabrics. But I'm sure Elizabeth will receive a lot!
Posted by: Lui | September 30, 2011 at 03:15 PM
Best of luck to Elizabeth's project! What an extraordinary girl,
Posted by: Christine | September 30, 2011 at 03:49 PM
I don't sew and don't have any fabric to send to Elizabeth. I will however, keep her in my prayers. One never know when someone may just hand me some fabric for whatever reason. I so believe! Elizabeth is truly lovely inside and out. Beautiful photos. Her lights shines from within. Connie's apron's are fantastic. Good luck to Gabriella on her book signing. Such exciting time. Thank you Beverly for always being such a gracious hostess.

Well, I started typing and my comment disappeared! So...what a wonderful project from Elizabeth. I'm not able to play in the Pink but wanted you to know I went and found a book by Dorothea Benton Frank you recommended! I'll get to reading!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia :)

Bev,
I am so excited, You are always a blessing in my life. I was just saying to my mom yesterday that I wish I knew where I could donate some of my fabric. Then you introduce us to Elizabeth. I already e-mailed her and told her to have a peek and pick what she would like.
You'll never believe this but I felt well enough today to sit and design some fabric and I posted about it. Thank you for your well wishes. God is so good Bev. All we have to do is ask. I am thrilled for Gabriela, I know that she is in complete joy doing these book signings.
LIving Beautifully is one of the first blogs I visited on Pink Saturday.
Thank you again for being instrumental in answering my prayer about donating some of my fabric.
You are a blessing.

Hello Beverly....Wow...are there ever sooooo many talented folks here on Pink Saturday! Just look at that Gabriella...a book signing at Barnes and Noble!!!! One day my time will come for Fame and Fortune....well maybe Fame. For now I guess I'll have to keep on keepin' on as The Pink Photo Maniac Collector. This week it finds me Wallowin' Where the Buffalo's Wallowed. I know....it doesn't sound very Pink or Pretty....but, what can you expect from a PhotoManiacal Pinkie?

Hi Beverly, Thank you for linking me yesterday. We were on the road again and have arrived safely at Christina's home in FL. We went to breakfast with good friends and shopped a bit since I have no shopping where I live in small town USA. Tomorrow a long drive home and I long to be there. We have been gone 9 days so far.
Gabriella is s talented and I wish her well with her new adventure. I love pressing flowers and her kit and instructions will be so much easier. I bet she is having a wonderful time with her book signing.
Elizabeth's project is so awesome. She is so sweet and very pretty. Thoughtfulness is a wonderful attribute. I know Kandy is very proud of her and s am I.
I actually lost track of days and forgot about Oct. being Breast Cancer Month. Good for you for posting about it my dearest friend. I am going to my post add add it right now.
Love you much,
Jeanne
