You can pop by Brendas blog HERE and see a list of participants on her sidebar....OR pop by Joni's Blog HERE, Joni is our Hostess this week !


Ok this is sooo outside my PINK SQUARE its not even funny... but i do loooove a challenge.
SO HERE I GO with ORANGE stuff !

Firstly it doesnt matter what colour flowers are, they are always beautiful...
Orange Daisies and Pansies (My trusty assistant Sam found these at the local Nursery yesterday...and was heard to shriek across the nursery, "MUMMY I FOUND YUKKKY ORANGE FLOWERS FOR YOU"...LOL.
Out of the mouths of babes hey!


Next up is my gorgeous and crazy baby Georgie, trying so hard to squeeze into my ribbon container for a little nap!


He's mamas boy and no-one elses and has a wicked temper if you cross him. Typical red head you think ...???


Now what would any day be without CANDY...i mean seriously...it can turn a grey ole day into a sunny and ORANGE one !

Sorry girls i ate the props..*wink*

love the orange photos, especially the kitty...and they don't even clash with your blog! Tell Sam orange isn't my favorite color either, but I was trying to think of a summer color that popped (other than yellow)...

nice to meet you ~
:)

What a great collection of orange things. I especially like the cat. What a cutie. I was looking all over for orange flowers, front doors, and traffic signs/cones and couldn't find any. I never thought of going to the local garden centre. And orange candy - made me realise I have a bag of dried apricots which are a bright orange. Ah well, too late now! It's nice to meet you in your pink world, Shannon.

Annie said...

Thanks for your orange photos...Shannon..just great...and the rest of your blog looks really interesting too...love all those cushions..wow..Annie

Connie said...

I don't think I have anything orange in my home unless it's the fruit! Your post is delightful though, chickadee,
Smoochies,

Hi Shannon,

I'm so glad you played along!! Okay hands down my favorite is your cute little guy, Georgie. How did he squeeze himself into that container. LOL He doesn't look like he has a temper with that sweet face! And I love your orange candy and orange kisses for the day. Great fun!!

Sally said...

Love ALL your pictures! Glad you joined in the fun.

Your blog is BEAUTIFUL!! Such a creative young lady you are!!

Kari (GrannySkywalker) said...

This IS my first time to your blog (as well as my first time participating in the challenge!) and I've enjoyed my visit quite a bit! Love all your pictures, but the cat is my absolute favorite!

Kari

Brenda said...

Hahaha, ate the props huh? Ok, the candy is my favorite (cause I'd love to have a piece!) but they're all great photos. I'm so glad you joined us in having fun with our cameras!

Donna said...

I have to agree with the others, the kitty wins the show! But he knew that already, didn't he? Beautiful blog, and I can't wait to immerse myself in it and soak in the cottage pink attitude. Enough with thinking about orange, LOL!

Cindra said...

Orange and pink are two of my favorite combinations! So happy you have joined us!

candy said...

I would have a hard time trying to find orange around my home too. I dont think I can now that I think about it (except for maybe an actual orange or orange juice LOL)
Hugs,
Candy :)

~Becca~Bluebird Rose said...

You did good!! :)
Orange would be such a challenge for me; it is not one of my faves either. I wouldn't have thought of photographing my orange kitties, and I have two!!
I was literally laughing out loud at Sam's "yukky orange flowers" comment, and of course they always say those things quite LOUDLY.

Debbie said...

Oh my favorite was your cat! How adorable is this :)

Great job and I had a good time on this one too!! Have a great rest of the weekend :)

Hey Sweetie, you should have taken pics of my red hot pokers while you were here (I hate them but the birds love 'em). BTW, Georgie loves his Nanny too.
Mwah.

Bek said...

Orange is a hard colour, I thing my fav was the orange lollies.

Mikayla got your package today thankyou soooo very much we were so excited. Check out my blog for photos. I just love what you made.

Sharon said...

I love your cat. We used to have a ginger cat called Rhubarb but he sadly passed away a few years ago - what a character :-)

You will have to go to the Magic Festival next year. It's an absolute ball!

Hi Shannon,
I have a daughter with your name!
I like your orange photos. Especially your cat. We used to have one that same color! I LOVE that you're from Australia! And I love your beautiful work. I've always dreamed of doing something like that. Maybe I'll be inspired by reading your blog. Welcome to the next photo challenge!
