Seating for One

Hi all, and Happy Pink Saturday to you!

Here is a simple journal page that I did about 3 weeks ago:

I found the art while skimming through some magazines and came across a Starbucks ad. The phrase and wonderful simple scene really caught my attention.

It reminds me to take time for myself, to slow down and to reflect....while enjoying that journaling time (or whatever) with a cup of tea or hot cocoa.

We all need that time to ourselves in these hectic, crazy days.

For more wonderful pink, head on over to Beverly's @ How Sweet the Sound (remember to stop by the current date link).

Valentines are Everywhere

For the love of simple, pretty things....


For the love that God showed us, tho we really don't deserve it....


For the love of the arts and part of my past (I was a Girl Scout)....

For the love of my husband, Tim....
For the love of life's little pleasures (nice smelling lotion, yummy)....
For the love of creativity that abounds in everyday living....
For the love of little woolen warm fuzzies and learning something new (learning how to do small felted things)....
For the love of doing little sketches....
Happy Valentines Day to all and have a great pink Saturday!
For more pink love, go and visit more pages over at Beverly's - How Sweet the Sound (remember to stop by the current date link).
Pink Blessings!

Miss Sugar Says.....

Meow....Happy Pink Saturday to you! We normally cannot get a decent picture of our kitty because she is either always on the go or hiding under the bed. So I was delighted to be able to capture her with the camera lens last week. She is doing one of her many grooming sessions on her little mini afghan that 'Nana' made for her at Christmas.

I also wanted to show off a little touch of Spring in the midst of all of this winter. This little pink carnation I found and I took it home after a women's event that I went to with a friend. It is starting to wilt some on the edges, but it is still beautiful :)



I hope that all of you are enjoying your day. To experience more pinkness, go on over to Beverly's - How Sweet the Sound (remember to look for the current date link).

Till next time......

Pink Within Journal Covers

Happy Pink Saturday to you all and thanks as always for visiting me :)

I am still in that artful journaling mood (of course with a pink flair). I am loving playing with my oil pastels, gesso and magazine images.

These two images are the cover of my journal that I have been working in. The 1st is the outer part of the cover while the 2nd one is the inside part of it.

Again, I love all of the comments that I receive. I am so sorry that I have not had the chance to really visit with all of you. My goal this Pink Saturday is to do so. It is really getting that precious online time (which has been really sporadic recently) and while trying to stay warm downstairs (where our computer is) that does not retain the heat very well....brrrrr.

Plan on seeing you all next week for more pink!

~Amy

Be Transformed in Pink :)

It has been a long couple of weeks....I have been worrying quite a bit, mostly over the crazy stuff at work. I decided to bring out my trusty journal and work with it.

I am one that has a really difficult time in 'digesting' worry...which I know is wrong to do on a constant basis. I was inspired to create these two pages after reading my new Art Journals magazine (Stampington and Co. publication).

I was also inspired by the Biblical verse of thinking about renewing your mind of unwanted thoughts and feelings:

"And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God." (Romans 12:2)

After your visit with me, go and stop by the other pink blogs at Beverly's place @ How Sweet the Sound (go and look at the current Saturday link).

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your Pink weekend :)

Blessings to you!
