Creative week and Happy Pink Saturday!

Hi everyone!

I hope your week has been beautiful and creative. Its been dreary and gray here all week but I have found my longing for spring to get here just a little bit faster (please!) has motivated me to get busy and focus on something besides being gray and dreary along with the sky.

Oh here's a tid-bit of news! Have you heard about the change in the zodiac dates? I thought this was interesting...


http://www.mb.com.ph/articles/298420/its-all-stars-new-zodiac-dates-released
Excerpt:

It's all in the stars: new zodiac dates released

“The moon's gravitational pull has slowly moved the Earth in its axis, creating about a one-month bump in the stars' alignment... Now, during what we think as the month of Pisces, the sun is actually in the sign of Aries…”
Thus the adjustment of zodiac dates as follows:

Capricorn: January 20-February 16
Aquarius: February 16-March 11
Pisces: March 11-April 18
Aries: April 18-May 13
Taurus: May 13-June 21
Gemini: June 21-July 20
Cancer: July 20-August 10
Leo: August 10-September 16
Virgo: September 16-October 30
Libra: October 30-November 23
Scorpio: November 23-December 17
Sagittarius: December 17-January 20

Now with these new dates and my birthday (June 21st) I am no longer sandwiched between Cancer and Gemini (Basically a crabby multiple personality person)... I'm now a "BULL with multiple personalities! Oh my!...how... flattering... Mr. H should be tickled pink to hear about this, all he has to do now to get my attention is wear a red cape and sing "olay, olay!" But being a split bull..make that cape PINK! 

Okay, on to the creative part of my week, here are a few of the lovelies I made this week...

I think out of all the new journals I have been making, I adore this one best! 



And how gorgeous is this velvet and satin bible cover, I hardly ever make covers to fit large books and bibles. It's hard to tell in the pictures but the trim is metallic gold, just stunning..








I love the rich bold colors of this little note pad keeper...







And NOW! My favorite pinks for the week!

Pink Yummies! 


And the sweetest of all pinks ever, came from my son...






For more happy pink inspiration visit our wonderful hostess Beverly at "How Sweet The Sound"!

Thank you so much for visiting with me, it ends the week on such a beautiful note hearing from you..

Hugs

  5. Happy Pink Saturday Catlyn Sweetie...
    What a beautiful share today. I love the pinks. Your Bible cover is so elegant. Your journals are so beautiful and romantic. I think a girl would so enjoy keeping her most treasured secrets in one of these journals.

    Now I have to tell you, I have been a Taurus all my life, and I now am changing to an Aries. Oh my, I don't know if I can get used to this one. I will have to read and see if I really fit into that sign. How fun this is.

    Love your pink treats. They are my favorite as well, but that little message from your precious SON, well that is the BEST of all. Save that in one of your journal pages sweet one. Someday he will pull that out, and remember when he made that for you. Such a treasure.

    Have a glorious weekend. Many hugs and so much love, Sherry

  6. All your pinks were nice, but the note from your son is the best of all. It even takes the place of those sweet goodies.
