Still in the spirit of sharing--

Cross 2114:
1810-12re (((((Victoria Falls x Vanity) x Immortality) x Love Lines))) x (Feed Back x Champagne Elegance) x Light Rebuff) X 1814-02Re(Radiant Bliss x Summer Radiance)
I hope I've got all of the brackets right.  (Most of these seedlings have rebloomed some) 
 
I feel I should apologize for even posting these seedlings!  Many things were disappointing in this cross.  All of the seedlings were yellow, except two.  I used two yellow seedlings so this was expected.  The form regressed a bit.  Selection of seedling again.  Not the best choice of the possibilities.  (only one available at the time . . . late in the season.)  Sort of an afterthought. 
 
One dark bi-tone seedling.  Reddish.  I kinda like it. 
 
Since the very beginning, I'd wondered what the chances were of pulling a pink out of this mess.  I was quite busy as I worked my way down the garden and when I raised my eyes to this clump--there it stood!  A pink seedling.  No denying it.  It has the same form as the others.  (ugly and retro) 

Here is proof that the pinks can hide but they don't always disappear!
