Linking up with above, stop over and visit all the pink inspiration.

I have been admiring these color palette templates other bloggers have been posting and thought I would give it a try.  Wow they are very fun to create.   I found a free template and tutorial over here:  http://www.thecoffeeshopblog.com/  Thank you Rita.   

More orchids from Botanical Gardens visit.

I used a varigated cotton in pastels for this dishcloth and just made the pattern up I thikg I casted on about 35 stitches on size 8 needles, did about 5 row St, then a checker border of 5 st each SS and G and for a number of rows alternating then repeated 5 rows of St and binded off.  I'm not doing an edging on this one, heck it's just a dishcloth, but a pretty one to smile with at the sink when chores call, don't you think.

A few of my latest stamped creations!

We're getting a a little snow this weekend and it's very cold.

Happy Pink Saturday, Hugs, Michelle

Sermon on the Mount

Linking up with Ann over at aholyexperience today:  http://www.aholyexperience.com/2012/02/sermon-on-the-mount-on-the-farm-video-1/

Beautitudes: Matthew 5:3-12
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
