Periwinkle Place (Rainbow Connection Winners!)

This week at Rainbow Connections ~ Colorful Competitions, we took a trip to Periwinkle Place... with thanks to Julie (serenity seeker) G...

Periwinkle is a place of inspiration, a place where dreams come true... 

Periwinkle has its blue moments...

In those times when life gets too crazy...

Periwinkle blue has a hazy respite that I love to feel...

Periwinkle Blue can be dazzling and uplifting...

It can be sweet and peaceful...

...a heavenly place, all tucked away from the world...

 Periwinkle Blue is restful and relaxing...

... full of promise and new life...

Periwinkle Blue has always made my eyes twinkle...

And that's why I love...

My dear periwinkle...

Congratulations to this week's winners!
