My Heart's Quest Pretty in Pink preview C project is MMMMJP #8 Dream in Pink

Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity!, a personal crafting blog!

who: I'm Becca S, a 60+ year artsy-craftsy blogger who lives in north central Illinois. Middle of the USA. 

where: Heart's Quest Pretty in Pink Challenges is a crafting challenge blog that I put into active status last month and will have its first session beginning on September 15th. Look for a link to the preview C post at the bottom. 

when: Monday September 7, 2026

why: On a couple Mondays per month I'm trying to get a new entry page added to "My Mondays Mixed Media Journal". So MMMMJP #8 is going to serve as my preview C post inspiration project. "Dream in Pink" goes with the main HQPIPC theme of AGMP or Anything Goes Mostly Pink.
