Pink Saturday - August 7, 2010

Happy Pink Saturday !

This week we have one hundred ninety-two (192) participants in Pink Saturday.  There are ten new participants, and you will find them at the bottom of the list.  Let's all take time to welcome them to Pink Saturday.  All participants are listed in the order in which they began participating.

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 Friday.  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.

Reminder - We have a weekly challenge for you to visit the blog of at least one participant that you have never visited before.  Then next Saturday include that blog and a link in your post.  Quite a few of you have been done this challenge, and have met some of the great Pink Saturday participants.  Thank you for sharing with us.

This week I am featuring five blogs of Pink Saturday participants.  These Pink Saturday participants have requested to be a featured blog, and there will be up to five featured blogs each Saturday.  Please visit, get to know and say hello to these participants.  They have each written the following personal greetings to you.

Pink Saturday Featured Blogs

• Laura at Fun With This and That

Thank you, Beverly, for making the Pink Saturday's community.  I love the Pink Saturday.  I have my whole family looking out for ideas for Pink Saturday.  I have not been blogging very long.  Love the swaps and giveaways.  I want to do more giveaways.  Love giving gifts.  I'm always working on some projects.  I enjoy so many different crafts and art that I always have a number of projects in progress.  I enjoy fine art, painting in oils, acrylics and pastels.  Also thoroughly enjoy folk crafts....tole painting, wood carving, sewing , and dabbling in interior design.  I can not make up my mind if I like country of shabby Chic, so I do both.  One of my favorite things is looking for vintage finds.

• Maggie at Do these shoes match this purse?
  

A big thank you to our wonderful hostess, Beverly, for the perfection that is Pink Saturdays!  I love sharing pinks with fellow colour lovers, and I do so appreciate all the effort Beverly puts forth to make Pink Saturdays happen!  I'm excited to be featured this week - what a lovely honor!  I'm a pink lover and there's usually something pink decorating my world.  Pink's not just a color but an attitude and I try to see the world through rose colored glasses and always look for the pink lining in live.  When life hands me lemons, I try to make pink lemonade.  Feel free to come over for a visit to my blog.  I also love to read and watch movies so I have a few side blogs where I review books and movies.  Otherwise, on my everyday blog featured here, I write about random things in my life, usually aiming for tickling your funny bone pink when possible.  I've recently started dating a new man so I have funny relationship stories.  I'm the mother of a 17 year old boy so there's plenty motherhood material.  I'm also a teacher.  And maybe I should mention I'm a little obsessed with shoes.  Lots and lots of shoes.  It's not wrong to own about 300 pairs, is it?  I like to share humorus stories from my past and overall, I love to write.  So pleased feel free to stop on over at "So these shoes match this purse?" and enjoy!  I'd love to hear from you! ~ Love, Maggie

• Susan at Suzie Button Creations

Thank you, Beverly, for featuring me on this lovely Pink Saturday!  I began blogging because of my love of creating almost out of any form: paper, fabric, glues, tapes.  I just love to use what is on hand and around me and to transform it into something pretty and useful!  I am so often inspired by all the lovely bloggers around me!  I am Suzie Button...and I've confused some who think my last name is actually "Button," no it is not, but insteasd it was a nickname given to me by a former co-worker.  I love to share my life, my art, my dreams and joys with all who visit me.

• Tobi at The Pink Pixie Forest

Hello my Sparkly Friends!  The Pixies and I just LOVE gathering all our pink trinkets to be a part of Pink Saturday every week!  We also Love, love, LOVE Miss Beverly for being such a Pinkerific Hostess.  We feel so blessed to be featured in our favorite blog party!  Blogging has opened such a lovely world for me, a place of friendship, creativity, fellowship and encouragement!  I thank God every day for blessing me (and the Pixies too!) with such lovely friends and for being able to create beautiful things that make people smile.  About us:  The Pink Pixie Forest is a magical world where we (Me and the Pixies) create all kinds of gifts - Bottle brush trees laden with vintage jewels and mercury glass ornaments, Tiny Frozen Charlottes swinging on Sparkly Glittered Starfish, lovely ornaments and jewelry made from vintage Chandelier crystals, Soldered Fairy wands, Crowns, Altered Bottles, and lovely Flower Fairy Cakes that would even delight Marie Antoinette are just a sampling of the magical scrumptious treats in our Etsy and Make Mine Pink Boutiques.  We would be honored to have you visit our sparkly little world where magic, art and girlyness collide!  We just Adore making new friends so please visit us and become our new sparkly follower!  Sparkly Hugs, Tobi and the Pixies!  Our Motto:  If all you did was just look for things to appreciate, you would live a joyous, spectacular life.

My pink contribution for this Pink Saturday was something pointed out to me by my sweet husband.  We were in a wonderful gift shop, and he spotted this sign.  He laughed at the sign, and called me to see it.  We both laughed at just how true this is, and then we laughed some more when we saw all of the pink.
