Welcome Gnome

I am still working on my card kits from the 2015 group on SCS that Jeanette organized.  I received the kits in October and it took me until now to finish the last of the cards..................  Jeanette asked us to post our likes or requests for the ladies who make the monthly kits--and I posted that I would like an image or two from their favorite company.  I sure received a variety of images and many people wrote a note about the company! 

This card was made from a card kit from Darlene, that she hand delivered when she came to visit last month--Yay for me! She gave me a couple of garden images as she knows we love to garden--both flowers and vegetables!  She also had a boatload of unique embellishments--including these cute garden brads and the plastic flower charm.  This was a fun kit to play with!  I hope I did OK and that Darlene likes my card.

Here is the inside of my card:

Dueling Darlings and Gardens!

It is the 15^thof the month and that means we get to show off another Dueling Darlings challenge. Tami and Darlene are the Darlings who came up with the challenge and theme for the teams this month.  Tami is a Diva and Darlene is one of the Dazzlers.

The theme is Gardening. 

We had a cute moose image--Garden Riley.  Tami also sent along some sweet papers and using some of them was a great challenge.  Tami set a couple that were 1/4 circles and I really wanted to use one of them.  So--I trimmed part of one side off and put it in the corner of my card.  Tami also sent a variety of embellishments and I did try to use a few of them.

Tami also asked us to share a gardening tip--well.................  water and manure are two great tips for any gardener.  And--a greenhouse helps for spring planting in Wisconsin!
