Love is in the Air…

Valentine’s Day is drawing near with thoughts of huge bouquets of soft pink roses, heart boxes filled with chocolates, sweet cherubs….

Having Problems Leaving Comments?

This has been a problem for me on some blogs for quite some time now. Today I found out why. Through Pink Saturday, I visited a blog and learned that Blogger had apparently made some changes without notifying anyone – or if they did, I’m not aware of it. It has something to do with using Explorer and the settings on blogger for how you receive comments – I’m not all THAT clear on that part of it. 

If you’re having problems receiving comments – go into your “dashboard”, click on “settings”, then “comments”, scroll down and click on “pop up” for how your comments screen is set up. Now, that may not be the reason I have not been receiving more than 1-4 comments, but it sure seems to be the reason I have not been able to leave comments on some blogs. Hopefully, if you’ve been having this problem as well, this will help.

Since I’m here, I’ll leave you with a couple more tags recently entered in my Etsy shop

The Artful Pink Valentine and Pink Saturday….

In putting together a Treasury on Etsy I did a search for Pink Valentine Photography. Wow! Such beautiful artistry ~ these are some very talented people. Here is a direct link to the full Treasury. And I’ve included a couple of  beauties in my Pink post for Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly at How Sweet the Sound. Be sure to stop by and take a look ~ it’s a wonderful way to spend a leisurely Saturday morning.

This one is from the shop of Kathy Fornal

And this one is from Lafayette Place – I don’t seem to be able to get the size just right to really give it justice – but it is gorgeous.

And one more from the shop of Lucy Snow Photography

Sweet Vintage Love

I do so love Valentine’s day. The reds and the pinks, the paper heart doily, lots of glitter and hearts….be still my own heart…

And finally we have some snow…. My husband clearing it out with a little help from our sweetest bulldog Cuj. He actually spends a lot of time trying to kill the snow blower, so him and Dad are having a talk – notice the intense concentration…

Take care friends, enjoy your day and try to make the time to do something you love

Happy Pink Saturday …

Whew! I’ve been away for awhile, enjoying family and the holidays, then taking some time to close out 2011 and do some regrouping.

But, it’s time to get back into the groove and what better way than taking part in Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly at How Sweet the Sound and taking the time to spend leisurely visiting some really beautiful blogs and talented men and women.

Valentine’s day is just around the corner and I do love all the sweet vintage images that come with it. And what color is associated with Valentine’s Day ~ Pink of course…so I have some new tags…

and then, there are sweet birds…

Let it snow Let it snow Let it snow

Really – we need the snow. So far we’ve had very little. Just a couple of things – a “let it snow” banner… " These pics were taken in a hurry –  going out the door to take them to Lake Tahoe Holidays…

I did another one in vintage browns with music paper, etc – I really liked that one, but apparently I did not photo it – oh well.

A couple of single pennant banners – love making these… again the pics in a hurry out the door – these were for Lake Tahoe Holidays as well…

More gift card holders for our 2 nephews…

Pink Christmas and Pink Saturday…

I enjoy so much participating in Pink Saturday, just do not always have the pinks. This week however, I have a set of tags I made with a vintage image of a beautiful angel in tones of pink, aqua, and sepia. I hope you enjoy it and please pop over to Beverly’s at How Sweet the Sound to view some amazing talent and blogs full of wondrous pinks.

Oh, I almost forgot about these until I went to pull my photo – I made these to hold gift cards for my sister-in-law and niece for Christmas… very simple. I used a little glassine bag, covered it with paper (again older I’m trying to use up), and then made the little tags (stamps from Papertrey) and tied them with a snowflake button.

Take care friends, I hope you are having a wonderful holiday season and Merry Christmas,
