What are the Dueling Darlings? We are a group of friends that met on SCS, travel in each other's swaps and have taken a new twist on crafting to "duel"!
We, the Dueling Darling Divas, have one image/card kit to work with and the other half, the Dueling Darling Dazzlers, have a different image/card kit with the same theme! The object is to see what we came up with using this theme, what stamp was picked and how the divas/dazzlers created with it!
The theme this month is Fun and Laughter—Forever After. The hostess this month is Judy, who sent us these great supplies (and there were many to choose from!) And, the twist this month is to tell of a New Year’s Resolution we’ve made, but never kept, but really wanted to. So, my New Year’s resolution in the past has been to get healthier, but I have done OK in the food part, but not the exercise part. That is to change this year—going to go to the gym more and keep going—I started last January and did fine for 6 week-then I fell on the ice and it set me back. This year, I will go 3-4 times a week.
So here are the details on the fun card I created:
Image—Rubbernecker Edna-Kicking Up Heels, inside sentiment CTMH Growing Old
Cardstock—SU Tangerine Tango, Daffodil Delight, Whisper White and a sheet of the DSP that Judy sent
Ink—Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories—Nesties-Big Scalloped Rectangles, Copics, Blue Button with variegated fiber in it, Metal charm with “Wish”, on turquoise ribbon. Inside-glimmer brads, flower with rhinestone center
Now make sure to stop by to see the Divas and then your final stop will be a link to take you to see what the Dazzlers created! We are a big group of 14, so this might take awhile ~ and this is just a friendly joust ~ no winners, certainly no losers! Just a craftin', loveable group of friends taking on a monthly joust at card making! :)
I hope you enjoy looking at our creations! Thanks for joining us!!!!!!!
