It is the 15th of the month and that means I am showing you a new Dueling Darlings card. And, it is out 10th Anniversary or Birthday for this group and we are celebrating! We have been celebrating in the thread for the past month and it has been a blast. Our leaders, Kelly and Jeanette have posted party games and it has been a blast! For this month's card, Kelly sent everyone on both teams a kit so Jeanette even got one to play with. And, there has been a shake-up of a sort for the groups this round. When Kelly made the two sets of kits--one set of 6 for the Dazzlers and the other set for the Divas, she asked someone in her house to put a kit in an envelope and sealed it up. So-when Kelly sent out the kits and even probably opened her own, the kit might have been for the same group or the other. So--when I received my Party Card kit, there was a note that for the August Duel, I am a Dazzler! And, there were fun things in the kit too--a banner, a noisemaker and lots of fun confetti!
The sweet image I received is from The Cat's Pajamas called Forget About the Cake. I colored the image with my Copic Sketch Markers and cut the image and layer from Sizzix Dotted Ovals. I also received some great sheets of pretty party patterned paper, so I used two layers as the background. There were some a variety of fun embellishments. I did a "Kelly" and used three buttons, and tucked one under the layer of the image. I also layered some blue baker's twine over the pink ribbon on the bottom. This was fun card kit to make up and I hope the other Dazzlers and even my former Divas like it!
Here is the inside of my card, with one of the fun sentiments:
And, there were a couple of other items in our kit. Kelly put a golden ticket in each of our baggies and the winning ticket number will be posted in the thread. She also included the numbers 1 and 0 for our 10th anniversary, so I took a picture of both!
I hope all of the Darlings--my new Dazzler team and my original Divas--enjoy my card this month. Please be sure to stop in to see what all of the Divas as well the Dazzlers have created this month. Beth and Heather are the hostesses for September. Please be sure to check back next month.
There are a few members who do not have blogs: Suzy and LJ who are on the Diva team and Debby and Terry S who are Dazzlers. You will be able to check out their creations in their SCS gallery, if you click on the link for their name. All of the others should be found on my left sidebar. I am sure you will enjoy all of the wonderful PARTY creations this month!

Barb, I can't believe it - after 10 years, we're on the same team (for just this month). It's sure been a great 10 years, hasn't it?
ReplyDeleteYour card is so cute... just adorable! The die you used for the bunny is a great one with the pierced outline. I love your many layers and how you used so many items in the kit. And the inside of your card is great, too!
Cute card, Barb. I love all the layers you used. The inside looks great! Happy 10th!
