Painting With A Twist

Wow! What a fun night!  My friend Marty invited me to a Painting With a Twist party in Friendswood.  We had a blast and came away with a fully painted canvas that we painted 100% by ourselves.  You can even bring your own snacks and drinks.  The instructor gives you step by step directions and it couldn't be easier. They may not be Masterpieces but I will treasure mine as if it were!

The big 50 is coming up for me in November and I'm having a Girls Night Out there for sure!!

This is the original that we followed.

The canvas came with a penciled grid so you would know where to place the elements.

 Almost done....


I'm so proud of Marty.  She is know as a bit of an obsessive detail kind of gal
 (love ya girl - you know it's true!) but she finished on time and didn't even use a ruler!!! LOL!  

Although she did use a napkin as a straight edge.

PicMonkey Collage

For those of you who love PicMonkey, the new collage option is available!  So easy to use too.  I made this one, saved it to my computer, opened it in PicMonkey and added the text.  I LOVE PicMonkey!

What a Fantastic evening with my BFF!
