***Bloggerette Sorority...RUSH***


I am so excited about our Bloggerette Sorority!  
I have been busy getting ready, and finally...
***Today is R*U*S*H day!***

For R*U*S*H we were suppose to use this photo...
and create something from it.  However, we also had to incorporate ourself into it.  
So, I took a photo of myself on my Photo Booth program...


Then with a little technology magic...
I came up with this...
See me right there in the middle???

Next, I added a bit of this...
B*B*b*bling, vintage lace, and velvet ribbon make anything better!  Don't ya think???

And my end result was this...

Here, I am pointing myself out so you can be sure to find me.  lol...
A BIG THANK YOU to my dear friend, Karen, who got this whole thing started.  I look forward to meeting everyone and all the F*U*N we are sure to have!
So, now I am off to meet my new Sorority Sisters and see what they have made for R*U*S*H!

Blessings from your Back Porch Sista,
Rebecca

Hi Girl!
Oh you are too stinkin' cute!
You're the 2nd one I've seen DO THIS! I LOVE IT! WHen come knocking on your door, you are going to have to show me how to do it. I am so computer illiterate . . .
Oh my gosh and you blinged it up and made it gorgeous all around too.
YAY! LOVE IT!
What a fun time! I'm late! I took care of my great niece all day! Had a ball . . . but . . . NOW I'M LATE!
Oh well, she was worth it!
Talk to you soon! Love and hugs! Karen

Mollye said...

Hello sis and I am so happy to be your new sister. I ask you to forgive me for pasting the same message on all of the sorority sisters bloggys as I am never a “cut and paster” but with the recent death of my son, I am overwhelmed right now and just wanted everyone of my new sisters to know I am following you and hope I will soon be able to truly visit you so we will get to know each other as a sister should. Thanks for visiting me. Mollye

Beth said...

Rebecca, How pretty you are! 44 yrs old - NO WAY! Love how you put yourself into the photo. Looks great. Glad to be your sorority sister. My "take" on the sorority rush photo is much different than any others I've seen - that's because I'm not crafty - but I do have my own talents. lol
Blessings, Beth
