Pink Saturday ~ April 16, 2011

Sweet 16 party.

Last Saturday afternoon my niece had her 16th birthday party. She choose to have a chocolate cake with a lavender fondant with a strawberry filling. YUM! Sorry, I didn't get a shot of the filling...

One of her interests currently is Ballywood dancing which is what inspired me to make her the journal below.  I used a plain spiral bound notebook. I took an image of Ballywood dancers, with the help of Photoshop, I removed the face of one of the dancers and replaced it with a picture of my niece. I added some text to the image.  I added some pretty pink decorative paper and silk ribbons to the outside front. A map of India (notice the pink) is on the outside back cover. I added a few other items to the inside including the bright pink envelope containing a birthday card and money gift.

 
Then I wrapped it in a piece of shimmery fabric. The fabric will be fun to wear while dancing.

Of course it had a pink bow!

Another niece at the party was kind enough to allow me to photograph the back of her hoodie. Wow, the things we do for Pink Saturday -

And that sums it all up "we love pink!"

Thanks to Beverly at How Sweet The Sound we are going to have another Happy Pink Saturday
