Rose Pink~



Happy Pink Saturday!
This is my altered Rose Pink Notebook and its pink pencil partner! I used handmade paper, which I received quite awhile ago in an ATC swap, as a background for the blushing rose. Of course, I had to embellish with a butterfly. Keeping a journal encourages growth in its author. A metamorphosis actually does occur. The pink pencil was found at WalMart. I think a pack of six was only $1.27. Even though I have pencils, pencils, everywhere pencils...I just had to have a pack of pretty, pretty, pink ones!

Thanks for stopping by today. Continue to enjoy Pink Saturday by visiting Beverly at How Sweet the Sound. Beverly coordinates this blog event every week. Thanks, Beverly!

What a deal. I love the roses on the front, they are gorgeous. The butterfly embellishment makes it yours for sure. Isn't it great they we can take some things that don't cost much and turn them into beautiful, one of a kind items anyone would love to have, Happy Pink Saturday and have a great Thanksgiving too, Char
