The Bloggerette Society


Sisters In The Bloggerette Society
'RUSH' Party June 25th, 2010

I am madly excited! When I landed on the gorgeous, 'Some Days Are Diamonds' page a while ago, and saw that Karen was starting up a sorority of bloggers, I leaped right in to apply. Of course, in such situations there is protocol to follow, and application requirements...in this case one requirement only. Would-be sisters must use this picture of five comely ladies in some creative manner...while including a photo of themelves in the art work. This gave me momentary pause as I rarely like my picture being taken.
.
But here I am...ready for 'RUSH', with my collage, 'In Art, We Are All Sisters'. I believe this to be true and am looking forward to joining my new sisterhood!
.
I must give credit to Somerset Studio magazine and Sally Jean Alexander for the paper-to-share included in one of the magazines. I knew it was just what I needed as soon as I saw it.
.
And of course, a special, heartfelt thank you to Karen of 'Some Days Are Diamonds' for this brilliant bit of fun. If you haven't already seen it, I know you would love her beautiful blog!

Lynette - I love this! I love how you changed everything and personalized it for our sisterhood! And GREAT self-portrait! :) I know - it was hard to ask everyone to do this - I too HATE my picture taken!
Looking forward to getting to know you better in the coming months!
Enjoy the party!

Hello Sorority Sister! I love what you did with the picture and your blog is beautiful. I also love your fairy name. Hugs!

Shellbelle said...

Excellent submission! I'm having such a wonderful time today seeing and meeting so many clever artists and to think I almost didn't join the fun, because I do more digital art than any other form. I believe I'm going to love our new sisterhood!

Well done.
Glad to have the opportunity to stop by and say hello. xx

Mollye said...

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

Sherry said...

I have enjoyed visiting your blog and I am not ready to leave yet, still more looking around to do. I love what you did with the picture and how you incorporated your picture in your artwork. I have had a great time meeting new sisters. This should be great fun.

Love that quote..."In art, all of us are sisters". So true. Hi from a fellow sister!

Lynette, Hey sister! I love the collage you made. It's so creative! Glad you stopped by my blog. I hope to visit with you again soon.

Lisa said...

What a great project! I love it! The paper is perfect! I forgot to put my picture on mine!! Will need to add that later! This has been so fun! Have a great weekend!

Nelly said...

Greetings from PA, sister. Your creation is truly beautiful and so unique. Wonderful idea on how to use the image. This is so fun to visit. Thanks for stopping by my post.

Theresa said...

Hi there Lynette! I love your creation! Thank you for coming by to see me and leaving that sweet comment! I am still visiting around too:) Have a blessed day my Sista! HUGS!

Rebecca Nelson said...

This is GREAT, Lynette! LOVE LOVE LOVE your creation. Awesome!

Now...Just have to comment about the sweet little Yorkie you lost...

My Mollie (from my blog post from last Saturday) will absolutely TURN HER HEAD if I say "gimme a kiss goodbye". She ALWAYS wants to go and all we have to do is jingle the keys and she's out the door. She is almost 8 now...and that already makes me sad.

The poochie with the lipstick isn't mine. she was in an email that was sent to me and I thought she was DARLING and just had to include her in the PINK SATURDAY post!

Thanks for visiting. Your blog is a JOY!

Marsha @ Tattered Chick said...

Hello Lynette!

Your Rush project is absolutely beautiful!! Thank you so much for your lovely comments about my blog and workspace! I am unable to publish comments at the moment (apparently Blogger is having a problem) but no worries! Your name is going in the hat 3 times!!

Have a wonderful day! I am going to visit your blog now!

xxoo

Well I'm here for several reasons, I came from Scrapping with Sherry, then saw that you were a Sorority Sister also, I'm slow making the rounds!
I enjoyed looking at your blog and your pictures!
You commented on Sherry's blog about fixing your header up, do you need help? I can see you have the ability to design a header possibly you just need instructiions to upload it? Anyway I would be glad to help! Hugs from a sister! Margaret
