rush...

It's a Rush Party over at Some Days are Diamonds...


The beautiful Karen came up with this wonderful idea to start a sorority for blogging sisters.  Like every great sorority you gotta get started with a Rush...

Our assignment was to use this beautiful vintage picture and create something with it...


Since shabby chic, collage is what I love...


I went with it...


I created this beautiful, shabby journal as a gift for a friend.  It was such a fun experiment and I'm thrilled with how it turned out.   I started with a .50 cent binder, added some torn layers of tissue paper, sprayed the whole base with Glimmer mist in coffee and just started layering until I achieved the look I was after.  I added buttons, vintage ribbon, a scrappy flower and this beautiful Parisian mannequin and chandelier...top it off with a bevy of butterflies and ground it all with some beautiful lace and there you have it...a shabby chic journal.

I've already taken a peak at the what the other sister's have created and your gonna be inspired...
check them all out here.

Blessings,
Patty
