Beverly's Pink Saturday! and...its Halloween!

Happy Pink Saturday and Happy Pink Halloween!



I am not much of a Halloween fan but since Pink Saturday fell on Halloween this year I thought I would find some Pink Halloween Fun. I have to say this white pumpkin with shabby pink roses painted on it from Bella Rosa Designs is divine!



And this exquisite glass Pumpkin by Rich's Romantic Glass is fantastic!



I just love these cute pink pumpkins.




And aren't these the cutest witches hats you have ever seen? I love them!

The one above was listed on etsy, AmericanGirl51.




Hope you all have a safe Halloween and don't forget to check out all the other Pink Saturday participants. You can find the list at Beverly's How Sweet the Sound Blog. just click the link...and thanks for stopping by, please leave me a comment and come back again...Becs

Cassi's Creations Design Team Projects

Here are two Altered Art Journals I made using images from Cassi's Creations on Etsy. I used composition notebook journals and did some digital images then printed and affixed them to my covers. The insides and backs are covered with coordinating papers i had for scrapbooking. I sanded the edges and applied walnut inks for a distressed look. I added glitter, ribbons and fibers and a small matching tag to finsih them. They are listed on my website http://www.rebeccarosedesigns.com and I have some more listed in my etsy shop. You can purchase the images I used and more at Cassi's Creations on Etsy if you want to make your own. Please stop back by on Saturday for my Pink Saturday offerings...Becs

It has been a busy season!

I have been busy with a special order and halloween swaps. Here are some pictures of what I have been up to...


A Classic Hollywood Actress ATC Swap on Swap bot. I did a digital collage, then I layered it with several layers of Audrey then used glitter and flowers to embellish.



This is a Gone with the Wind themed ATC for swap on Swap bot. I layered Scarlett onto another picture of Gone with the Wind scene of Tara...





These pictures are of a goodie box I made for a swap in the Marie Antoinette Mail Art group. It is for Robin Sanchez. I used a wooden box then decopauged it with tissue paper. I added a card stock image that I made using Cassandra's (Cassi's Creations on Etsy) image of Marie and added glitter and other embellishments. I also decopauged the inside then filled it with ephemera, ribbon, trim, glitter, beads, flowers and other goodies....






These pictures are of a Marie Masquerade Ball Dress I made for a swap on the Marie Group. I used a paper mache dress form and decopauged it with Tissue paper, then attached a painted wooden spool as the base and added a wooden finial for the top. I used tulle, chiffon and some scrap pieces of lace and satin to make the dress. I added a feather pick to the back and made a chiffon rose and bow which I also added to the back. This dress will be traveling to Brazil for Adrienne.


The next set of pictures are of some ATC's I made as part of Cassi's Creations Design Team. I used her images and collaged the ATC's by cutting and layering.


For the two fairies, I used Cassie's images and created the fairies then I collaged them onto ATC's using some of her other images. All of the images can be found in her Etsy Shop.

Queenie and I had High Tea on Saturday Afternoon!

"Queenie" TADS (Traveling Paper Art Doll Symposium) Paperdoll #4 is getting ready to leave and journey on to the Big Apple!

While she was here she told me how much she enjoyed Tea parties. So my sister and I decided to give her a Tea since we love tea parties. Queenie wanted to go shopping for a new dress and hat. So, off we went to a local boutique called Al a mode. She found a beautiful pink dress and a matching Audrey Hepburn type hat. She also found some pink rhinestones and made a necklace and bracelet.



Saturday was a warm summer day (yes, I did say summer, as it was 101 degrees at the end of September!) So we went out on the patio. We used some of our favorite tea cups and had tea and cupcakes! Yummmmmm.... The sun shone on the crystals and made a perfect crystal glow! Queenie talked about her recent visit to Australia and showed us pictures of her trip.



We talked about our dreams, our plans, dresses and parties and out love for girly things! I shared a quote with her by Henry James, Portrait of a Lady who saqid this about tea, "There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."



What a true sentiment! We were sad to see Queenie leave, but she was excited to go to the Big Apple (New York) to visit some more new friends from TADS. Before she left we packed her clothes nicely in her case for her travel.



To learn more about Queenie and to see where else she has been, you can click here TADS You can also read about four other dolls traveling the world, each with their own journey.

Talk to you all soon and God Bless...Becs

September Artwork for Cassi's Design Team

The Holidays are getting closer! I love Thanksgiving and Christmas. Fall and Winter are my favorite times of the year. I just wish we had more of them where I live. We are still having summer weather here. I am ready for the cold to come...

As most of you know, I am a member of Cassandra's Design Team. I use her images for my artwork. I have three ATC's here in which I used her images of Marie, her roses and banners images as well. She has a ton more awesome images if you want to use them for creating your artwork. Just click on her Etsy store link above and check it out!



I also entered a Halloween ATC swap group I found on Facebook. The group is called Artist Trading Cards and you can click this link to go to the blog. Here are the cards I did for the swap.



I hope you will check out Cassi's creations, You will find something you will love! God Bless...Becs

Autumn Harvest Blessings

I have been looking for ATC and other mixed media swaps and came across Swap-bot. It is a great place to get involved in all different kinds of swaps. I entered the Autumn ATC swap and made this for my partner. I had alot of fun with creating my digital collage, then I collaged several layers and then glittered and added "harvest blessings". The beautiful flowers I used came from Cassi's creations on Etsy. You can find a ton of awesome graphics at her store.

I will be posting some more ATC's I made using Cassi's images. So please come back by tomorrow or Friday to see what I have been up to. Bye for now...Becs

Beverly has asked us as part of Pink Saturday to visit a blog that was new to us. SO last week I visited several, but I want to share this one with you. Mary at Rose Brook Cottage has the most lovely blog. She is a wonderfully talented artist and paints beautiful roses....PINK ONES too!!! Please pop in and tell her hello for me.

I will be spending Pink Saturday with my women's ministry group having a tea and going shopping as a group! I can't wait! Happy Pink Saturday! God Bless You All...Becs

Up to My Chin in Shoes!!!!

Well, I never thought I would say it, but it only took my sister and I Seven (7) Hours to make 25 paper shoes! Oh My Gosh! The women of my church are having a tea in the morning on Pastor Debby's patio. After tea, we are going for a walk in downtown Exeter, to go shopping. Exeter has a new Boutique called "Al La Mode" and it is exquisite right out of Paris I am sure! The owner, Jessica is a sweet heart!



Anyway, back to the shoes. I thought they would make a cute party favor and would work well as napkin and utensil holders. The color scheme was with fall colors, so this is what we came up with! Cute huh? Here are some more pictures of the shoes...Let me know what you think.









Have a great weekend and God Bless You All...Becs
