Friday Night Chat Challenges

Enjoyed tonight's Friday Night Challenge over at Embrace Your Art.  Tiare better known as Classygirl was our host and she allowed an hour for us to create instead of 30 minutes so I got a chance to take my time.  Our first challenge was to create a project with our favorite technique and use our handwriting.  I painted this on a watercolor sketch pad using acrylic paint, watercolor, masking, glitter...I don't think I have a favorite technique.

Entering in the following challenges:  

Alphabet Challenge - Pretty in Pink 

Word Art Wednesday - Anything Goes Family/Friendly Week #251-252
Crafters Cafe - Use lots of Pink

The 2nd challenge was a Sisterhood challenge including a quote about sisterhood. Love this Bug A Boo digital and the quote is heartwarming.

Fall into your Season

The first card was inspired by a song Donald Lawrence sings entitled "Seasons".  I left the link on his name if you would like to listen to it.  It will truly speak to your heart. The sketch for both cards are by Freshly Made Sketches.  Autumn is my favorite season!  I love the coolness in the air, the crisp colors and the warmness of family and friends together.

Prima Doll Parade

We're having a Prima Doll Parade today at Embrace Your Art from a swap we just had.  I only have three Prima Dolls and since I was indecisive I made two for my partner.  They are Megan and Suzi.  Stickles was added to the jacket I made for her as well as the bottom of her dress and shoes. Below is a close up.

This is the tag in it's entirety.

With this Prima Doll I used embossing powder on the sentiment and flock for the sand at the bottom of her feet.

With Heartfelft Sympathy

Just a quick post for this sympathy card I made at a crop last night with an inspired MOJO Monday sketch.  The papers from  Paper House Colorways. It's quite simple.  It's stamped with no coloring or embellishments, which is not my style.  You know what?  I love it!  Make it a great day bloggers!

African Violet Burlap Wreath

My "Delta" mother went to glory on my birthday.  It still doesn't seem real, but I know she is helping God run things in heaven.  She and my mother were the same age and had the same morals and discipline.  Ma Mildred as she was affectionately called, was a wise woman and full of knowledge in Delta Sigma Theta sorority. She was a beautiful soul, always giving, and teaching and checking to make sure all things were "Decent and In Order".  This wreath was suppose to go on the door of a session she was going to teach at our reclamation after we heard of her sudden death.  I finally finished it.

Our Reclamation was a cowboy theme and I have photos of the table decors to share with you.  My Crafty sisters Rhoda, Nicole and Samantha came to my rescue to help assist with completing the table decors for the event.  This is what we started with.  All purchased from Michael's.

 

The Finished Touch

Hope you enjoyed the visit here.  Your comments are certainly encouraging.
