I'll be wearing red today and here are a few ladies who are showing their
support by wearing red too.

ReplyDeleteWe don't have such a day over here but hats off to you for bringing it to my attention and to many others.
What wonderful pieces of art but let me start with your beautiful mother and what a way to honour a mum by creating a piece of art with her image on it.
As for the others, fabulous use of June's images and making them extra special with the sentiment behind them.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful creations and important message indeed!
ReplyDeleteHow did I miss this! My favorite color is red and I would have worn red on the 3rd, but somehow I was outta the loop. Next year...
ReplyDeleteYour mama is pretty! and your tags are great I love those images.
Lovely reds for a good cause on Pink Saturday, Linda! As to my carpetbag - I have defaulted to one I made a few years ago as a prop for a play - used a tapestry pillow sham, folded in half, stitched up sides and faux leather handles from fabric store notions and trim. It'll do - and save me $100!
ReplyDeleteJoy!
