Spoonflower Gift Wrap Giveaway

Hi Bev,
I love your pink card. You must have quite a collection of pink after all these years of Pink Saturday.
Thank you for featuring my blog today. I am so excited about writing the new photography blog, and it's thanks to you. You have been hosting this event for so many years. Through my search for the perfect pink to photograph, I learned many things. Pink Saturday introduced me to Claudia from Dipity Road and she is the one who invited me to join these wonderful photographers on Focusing On Life Blog.
I have lots of downloadable pinks on today's post as a thank you.

Kim,
What a lovely way to illustrate your thoughts about apples. I am in Massachusetts, so wherever you look there are bushels of apples. I am an apple pie woman myself.
P.S. I just got my first order in the Cotton Silk fabric. I can't tell you how thrilled I am, it is gorgeous. I am going to make a scarf.
