There was a song many years ago, with the lyrics, "A White Sports Coat, and a Pink Carnation (I'm in a Blue, Blue Mood)". I hope this brings back only fond memories for all of us Oldies But Goodies.

Oh it did Mary. Never forget an oldie but goody like that one. And what a beautiful pink this is. Love the creative way that you fill the page, give it a pink framing and I love the use of the petals edges to form the shapes and lines. A beautiful look at a beautiful part of a beautiful old song, done beautifully Mary. You take care my friend. Have a wonderful day. #1660027

You captured this beautifully & skillfully, Mary. It's a difficult subject too. I remember my parents listening to this song, but I thought I was too cool to like it. It is a catchy tune and I like it now, and I am no longer cool- believe me.lol #11483587

This must bring back a lot of memories for people who attended their prom as I imagine this was popular then. Your capture sure does complement the song with the beautiful color and soft, subtle tones. Great capture Mary. #11483601
