Dueling Darling Divas November--What not to Wear!

OK—please read about this card before you judge my creativity………………….

This is round #16 of the Dueling Darlings and the two ladies who organized this group decided to go a bit wild this month.  Kelly sent the Divas an assortment of papers and embellishments and it could only be called bizarre, wild and crazy (remember how Steve Martin dressed?) as none of the designer paper matches—there are stripes, argyle, glittered and even Christmas patterns.  I can only imagine what Jeanette sent to the Darlings…………….

The theme was What not to Wear to this year’s holiday party.  So, my image is of what some us wore back in 70’s to parties—yellow go-go boots, wide patent leather belts (worn on our hips) and purple dresses.  And, I used 1 inch squares of each of the “designer” papers that Kelly sent to make a quilt background which I cut with the Top Note die.  There are Santa faces, argyle (more on that later), stripes, Christmas trees, poinsettias, and holiday words—yes, I used squares from each of the wonderful papers!  The glitter paper background brings the entire theme together—or tries to!  I also decorated the inside, as Kelly really sent us many items to use and there was lots of ribbon and brads and buttons to choose from.

I hope you enjoyed my What not to Wear creation and after the details of the card, be sure to check out the pictures………………………………..
