~~~~~~~HAPPY PINK SATURDAY~~~~~~~ VINTAGE PINK APRON TEAS -TAGS-CARDS~

 ~MOTHER'S DAY TEAS~

HAPPY PINK SATURDAY!

Thank you Miss Beverly of How Sweet The Sound for being such a wonderful party host!  We appreciate all you do for us!  Stop on over if you can squeeze in some time and check out all the fabulous PINKS out there in blogland today!!!  You're sure to be in heaven...and inspired!

I've been working non-stop this week and boy am I feeling it!  Truthfully though I had sooo much fun  putting the final touches on the Vintage Pink Apron Mother's Day Cards and Tags I shared with you a couple Pink Saturday's Back!
 ~THREE SWEET STYLES~

  We finally got most of them photographed and uploaded if you'd like to check them out over at my A Gathering Place Website.
 ~LOVELY SENTIMENT~

I still have to snap website pictures of the Mother's Day Teas I'm showing today, but here's a sneak peek at what they look like!
 ~ALL WRAPPED UP~
  
The little set you see above comes tied up in a clear cello bag and nine flavorful packets of gourmet tea come tucked inside!  Yummo!
 
~PICS OF CARDS and TAGS~

Thank you so much for visiting with me today!  Hope your weekend is awesome!  I'm going to TRY and plant a couple of Hydrangeas because I KILLED the ones I placed into the earth last year! BAH!

I don't think I'm evahhhh gonna get my PINK THUMB to turn Green...:(

Love to you~

All of your creations are just amazing.
I am like you, I don't have a very green thumb but I keep trying and love the gardening attempts lol and I guess that is all that matters.
Have a great weekend.

Love the pretty Mother's Day cards
and have already ordered mine!!
Rebecca, you should see the "hot pink" hydrangers I found at our Fads and Frames shop!! I planted two of the pots of them together in a big white pot and placed it by my "hot pink" front door on the front porch and it looks gorgeous!
I read that if you wanted to keep the pink color, to put the hydrangeras in a large container instead of the ground...better chance to keep the color because of all the other nutrient, etc. in the ground soil...I'll let you know if this works!! I never have any luck growing those beautiful plants but I never give up trying...!! LQTM
Have a happy digging day!!
Love ya, Francy

These are so lovely Rebecca! I've just placed my order for 3 of your Mother's Day cards :) I'll be keeping them for myself, and placing them in the Gathering Case I bought from you, that I keep all my special things of my parents in. I was out checking the flower garden off to the side of our home where I transplaneted several Peonies last fall, and it looks like several of them survived, YEAH!!! Hopefully I will get some blooms off of them this year :) Have a great weekend my friend!!

Warmest hugs, Brenda

Rebecca...

Hydrangeas can be tricky...heaven knows I've been confused by ours many times. Last year, they bloomed beautifully. This year they look...well...not so good.

Are you sure yours are dead? They can take awhile to emerge from their Winter dormancy. Do you see any buds along the stems? Watch them for awhile...they may start to open. Sometimes...after a particularly severe Winter...they'll die all the way back to the ground. So...the twigs will be dead, but the plant underground is perfectly fine...and will send up new growth...although it probably won't bloom this year.

Most hydrangeas bloom on "old" wood...meaning the branches from LAST year are the ones that will bloom THIS year. So...whatever you do...don't cut the twigs off until you're absolutely sure they're dead. I learned that the hard way!

What a gorgeous, stunning blog you have! And the Mother's Day cards are very pretty and creative. I picked ONE blog to look at before I go out for the day...I'm so happy I found yours.

I love hydrangeas, partly because there was a purple one on the property of my childhood home. I have small ones now, but they have white blooms. Going to have to put something on them this year to get colors.

Your cards are very sweet. I love the apron destings on them.

Everything you do, everything you touch is GORGEOUS, with this being no exception!

I love you, my beautiful friend who is as beautiful on the inside (where it really counts) as she is on the out. You're like one of those prisms that you can see through and which deflects beautiful rays of color when the light of the Lord hits it. Yep, that's my friend Rebecca.

XOXOXO,

Sheila :-)

What gorgeous creations!

NanaDiana said...

Rebecca- Those are beautiful. Can't you just see a 50's Mom wearing one of those aprons on a Sunday after church -as she was getting the meal ready for her family? You have the most beautiful spirit that just comes through in everything you do? Did you actually paint the aprons yourself? They are gorgeous!!! Love to you my sweet friend-xxoo Diana
