Mosaic Monday: Pink and Gold



We had an absolutely beautiful sunset on Sunday, with the sky shading from soft blues and golds to pinks and roses. Gorgeous! There are still some beautiful leaves clinging to the trees, but most have fled before the north wind. Darkness falls by early evening, and we turn inward to sit around the kitchen table and share a casual dinner. These are the quiet evenings I love, before the craziness of the holidays sets in. Sweet autumn. :)

Now let's have some mosaic fun! Here are the instructions:

  1. Publish your Mosaic Monday post.
  2. Once it is published, click on the title of the post. This will lead you to the static link for your post. The static link is the page with only that post on it. Copy the url from your browser at the top of the page.
  3. Paste the url into the appropriate Mr. Linky box in this post.
  4. Type your name in the appropriate Mr. Linky box in this post.
  5. Click on "Enter."
  6. Please link back to this Mosaic Monday post so that your readers can find other wonderful mosaics.
That's all there is to it! It's always a good idea to then check and see if your link is working. If you have any questions, feel free to email me: mrcarroll(at)optonline.net. I can't wait to see your mosaics! Here is Mr. Linky:

  20. Hi, Mary! Here you've made another gorgeous mosaic. The flower is so beautiful among the sunsets!
    Wish I could see a little of this. I'll just have to live it through your blog.
    Be a sweetie,

  21. I love the way you mixed those delicate pink blossoms in with the colors of autumn. Perfect. ~Jeanne

  22. Beautiful mosaic! Your shots are great. I love the softness and vintage feel with the textures.

    I figured out the crash, it's your music player. I have to quickly scroll to the bottom and disable it before it starts playing or it will crash any and all of my browsers. I'll probably only stop by for Monday Mosaic because of it. :(

  29. I'm glad you're up and running again Mary, though I know it takes a while to feel whole again after such an illness. Hopefully your son is feeling better too.

    You have such an eloquent way of writing. Your description of this wonderful evening is soothing to my soul.

    Hopefully I'll be able to participate in Mosaic Monday again sometime soon.

  39. Mary, every time I see one of your mosaics, I think "that's the best yet", and then you do another one, and I was wrong "it's the best yet"! This is absolutely dreamy. Your photographs are incredible, and I love the ways you combine them. You have made mosaics an art form. laurie

  46. Mary, this is one of the prettiest mosaics I've seen. Just magnificent.
    Every time I see your header...or the outside photo of Little Red House, I always think how blessed you must feel to be in the house that your father built..and he and your mom sharing their lives together in that house. It just makes me feel good to know this about you....and, to me, it speaks volumns about your sweet spirit that you WANT to always be in this sweet house.
    love, bj
