Bloggerette Sorority Party


I'm in a Rush!
This is a big day!
I am thrilled to be joining Karen @
Some Days Are Diamonds! 


Be sure to visit Karen to see who all has joined our sorority.
As of last night, I hear we have 137 Sorority Sisters from all over the world!
  
 
For our Rush Project, we were all asked to create something beautiful 
with these lovely "sisters".
No other rules - well except one. 
We have to take our new creation 
and take our picture with it.   
Here's what I had so much fun creating .




I was having so much fun,  I decided to get one of my favorite boxes out, it was embellished too!

See you at the party!

    Hello sista Nancy, I always get excited when I find a blogger from Texas, our son lives in Austin. Went there with IBM almost 20 years ago. I love your creation and two to boot. I think I will use that picture on some more things since I love the picture. Looking forward to getting to know you better. Thanks for visiting.

    Two pieces of glorious Sorority artwork, wow! I do love the way you have decorated the frame, its so romantic, flowers, bling and that gorgeous fluffy bow, but my favourite has got to be the box, I love love love it. You have such a sweet smile and I am thrilled to see you sitting at a piano. Do you play? Sadly I can't, but I thoroughly enjoy listening to piano concerts.

    How pretty you are sitting there with your beautiful creations!! I can never achieve this look. I've always thought I was a romantic but through the years I have learned I am not :(

    Hi Sister
    You put my box to shame. I love the things you made. You are really talented. How did you get the picture to go around the whole box like that ? I would of loved to do that with my round box. That just makes it so pretty like that. Kath'

    Wow..two gorgeous pieces of art! the box is so clever. I've not seen anyone else pick that route so far...great thinking outside the box. (Sorry..that was lame but I couldn't resist!)

    And I do love the elegant picture of you at the grand piano. It is just lovely to have you as a new sister, and thank you so much for stopping by my place! I've signed up to follow and will be back soon...

    Hi new sister! I am so happy to meet you and hope we become true sister friends in our sorority journey. I apologize up front that this message is a "cut and paste" message to all the sorority sisters because I wanted at least to become a follower of all of you and take a moment to say hello. For those who may not know my youngest son was killed last week and we buried him on Tuesday. I had started my project before that tragic event and am not finished but I did post what I've done on it so far. If you have visited me already I thank you and if not I invite you. I am just not quite at the point of being able to think of something to say individually at this time. I will soon hopefully be able to be active and visiting everyone. Love you already, Mollye
