Pink Sewing Saturday

It is time for another Pink Saturday over at Beverly's blog @ How Sweet the Sound.

Tho being busy this weekend at my nephew's 5th birthday party, I will be doing some sewing stuff. I am going to work on some more Dorcas Dolls for 'The Dorcas Project'. It is such a very neat project where these dolls are made and are given to women who have gone through or are going through breast cancer. Mo @ 'Mo's Musings', the lady who started the organization, is always looking for loving souls to create more of these special dolls to be handed out.

Thanks for stopping by and have fun exploring other Pink Saturday posts!

A Pink Saturday Journal Montage

Another Pink Saturday at My Artful Heart with more art journaling - in pink of course!

In continuation to last Saturday's entry, this page is one that I played with yesterday - using paint markers and Souffle gel pens.

Next, is a page (with it's close-up shot) that is based on our winery volunteer excursion. We did have a wonderful time. The weather was great too....not too hot and at night we definatley got the lake breezes - nice and COOL.

On this page, I had to add in the infamous PINK Pug dog icon from one of the wineries (Candlelight Winery)....they even had a sweet Pink Catawba (type of grape) wine named after the winery's resident Pug, Mork ("Nanoo-Nanoo"). Having the picture of their pug dog on the wine label I thought was very kitchy and oh so cute...the wine label is even stamped with a 'paw of approval'. By the way, the wine was very tasty too! They also had a very tasty cranberry wine - great cranberry juice, kicked up several notches!

At our volunteer tent (for Wyandotte Winery), we had a blast and everyone said that we were the best winery there at the festival...I suppose we were because we were having the most fun!

I have been Tagged!

Well what a surprise this Wednesday....I was tagged with a meme by Doves Today. It was originally started by A Girl Named Timmi.

Here is the gist of the meme -Name 4 things you should know about me before you invite me to your house:

1. I clean up after myself...I hate to have my hostess clean up after me....even tho they offer to take my cup or something...I don't want to have them worry about a mess, even a small one.

2. I really LOVE animals, cats especially!

3. I am easy going. I do love to chat, but I am mostly a listener.

4. I love to hear all about those items in your house that have neat stories attached to them.

Then tag 4 others to play along then those people tag 4 more....you have been tagged

Another Pink Saturday

Happy Pink Saturday everyone!

I decided to focus on some pink journaling, especially when I talked about scraps for journals last week.

I am working on the background for now...I used some crayons in different pink colors and layered it with some gesso and some powdered pigments (Pearl Ex).

While I am on the road tomorrow, going to a winery festival up near Cleveland, Ohio (town of Kirtland), I will work on my journal page more. Hubby and I are going to be volunteering with a local winery (from here at home in Columbus) to help keep things organized and to pour wine samples for all of the visitors. So no doubt my journal will be based on the event.

Aaaah...the pure simplicity of crayons and paint.

Go over and visit How Sweet the Sound for more Pink Saturday goodness!

My 1st Pink Saturday!

Well....this is my very first Pink Saturday post! I found this through looking at a fellow Mary Jane Farmgirl's blog -Maryjane Lee (The Beehive Cottage). I was hooked by seeing a "sea of pink" and a link lead me over to Pink Saturday HQ!

After looking through my stash of pink items, I decided to post two of them:

One is an nifty apron that was made by another Farmgirl friend, Bev over at Sew on and Sew Forth...she gifted this to me!!!!! The fabric is in different pinks with bees and clover. The apron is also reversible...a polka dot pattern is on the back. It is almost too pretty to wear :-)

The next picture is just of a couple of pink boxes. These boxes I hold all of my journaling scraps. Pages and snippits from all of the magazines that I look at that go into my journaling projects. I seem to have a ton of these type of boxes (not all of them pink tho)...as I always accumulate TONS of scraps.

I am looking forward to seeing everyones' pink stash.
