Flying Unicorns Nov Blog Hop

If you have come here from Maggi Harding's blog, Welcome.   If you would like to start back tat the beginning, please go here to the Flying Unicorns blog.  

Every year in the month of November, Flying Unicorn sponsors "Flying Unicorn Gives Back." This year, we've chosen a nationally recognized charity, Best Friends Animal Society in Kanab, Utah.

For each project that is uploaded to our forum gallery, Flying Unicorn donates $1.00 to a maximum of $1,000 and. we've always reached our goal. With your help this year we will again.! Flying Unicorn also donates 5% of all sales during the month of November to the charity. Finally, do not forget to mark your calendars for our Silent Auction November 8th - November 16th .

We have set up the Flying Unicorn page on the Best Friends site where monetary donations can be made as well to help us reach this years goal of $3000.00 in charitable donations.

Best Friends' mission of No More Homeless Pets tries to place dogs and cats who are considered "unadoptable" into good homes, and to reduce the number of unwanted pets through effective spay and neuter programs. Since its inception, the number of dogs and cats being destroyed in shelters has fallen to approximately 5 million a year. There has been much progress,but there is still much more to do. Best Friends made national headlines with their intensive efforts in rescuing so many animals in the aftermath of hurricane Katrina..

In honor of Best Friends, and the November Kit of the Month -Hear'ts Twilight - I would like to share with you the extra special project I made using the Kit of the month :

Sweet Chena
My project is of sweet Chena Harding.    You probably have come from Maggi Harding's blog, where she has also done a memorial page of her darling precious pup.  I felt it appropriate also. 

Chena was such a special dog, and close to my heart as well.  You see, Maggi is not just an internet scrappy friend, Maggi is also my personal "real - life" friend and I have been to her house several times.   In fact, I am lovingly called "Auntie Jen" to her pups. 

These are a few photos I snapped of Maggi and Chena,  Sept 2012.  The photos show their special relationship, and clearly capture Chena's darling personality.  Oh what a little character she was. 

I was with Chena on her last day.  I am forever grateful and appreciative that I was able to snap some photos of her, see her, have her smile at me, love me up and see her excitement as I stepped in the door. 

This kit is so perfect for a page about Chena.

I used some bubble wrap painted with gesso, a little fun accent that Shona often does - thanks Shona for the tip and trend.

 The wooden butterflies were painted with gesso and then topped with seed beads.

Oh my gosh , if this little darling isn't smile!  Look at her.  ( Yes Maggi too!  hehe)

Heart's Twilight is now available with an amazing and fun off the page creation- take a look:

Do not forget to join Alda and Shona this month with their process of making the below layouts. Alda will show you step by step on our You Tube Channel, while Shona has done a complete Build a Page for you all!
