I found a new blog party link – wooohooo!
I do love these link up parties – it’s such a great way to find new bloggers
and to discover new purposes for why people are blogging.
 I found PINK SATURDAY at Beverly's How Sweet the Sound blog:

Here is my pink contribution:




While trying to find a clever quote for my collage, I came across a few facts about pink.
It’s not a difficult color to find in our household with three little girls !
These fun facts come from Sensational Color
Pink is the color of happiness and is sometimes seen as lighthearted.


the pink ribbon is an internationally recognized symbol of
hope and awareness in the fight against breast cancer.


Bright pinks, like the color red, stimulate energy and can increase
the blood pressure, respiration, heartbeat, and pulse rate.
They also encourage action and confidence.


Pink has been used in prison holding cells to effectively reduce erratic behavior.


In 1947, fashion designer Elsa Schiaparelli introduced the
color "hot pink" to western fashion. She dubbed the shade "Shocking Pink,"
 though today the color is more well-known as "magenta."




please join me in  my first blog party:




happy weekend everyone!

  30. Hi Jen and welcome to Pink Saturday! I like your pink collage and found the factoids very interesting....especially about painting holding cells pink.
    I read that we have Mamie Eisenhower to thank for the pink bathrooms of the 40's,50's,and 60's as pink was her favorite color and she wore it a lot as First Lady.
    Happy PS~
