It is the 15^th of the month and that means we get to show off a new Dueling Darlings challenge. For our October Challenge, Debbie and Judy are the Darlings who decided on the theme.  Judy is one of the Divas and Debbie is on the Dazzlers team.  The challenge this month is--"Falling into New Friendships". 


Judy sent us this information:  The theme is to welcome new team members, Suzi with the Divas and Tracie and Shelly with the Dazzlers. 

I think it is great these three ladies are joining our fun, monthly dueling group!  They have all created some great cards last month and I am sure they will not disappoint, nor will the "veteran" members either!

Does this broom make me look fat?

This is the card for the 22nd round of the Unidentified Image swap on SCS.  It is a group of ladies who are a part of a bi-monthly swap where we all use the same image, sent to us by the hostess.  The unidentified part is that we are to not discuss the image at all until the day they are to be posted--that is today!   The images for this round were provided by Jeanette.  She will swap the cards and include the next image that Janet, our next hostess, provides in our return envie.  And then we get to do it all again--for round #23!!!

The image that Jeanette sent is such a hoot and is so perfect for October.  She mentioned it is one of her favorite Halloween stamps and was made by Starving Artistamps--who she thinks is no longer in business.  The sentiment on the inside just makes me giggle!  If you look closely, you can see a black witches hat brad on the lace ribbon.

Here is the inside of my card:

If you check some of the other blogs listed on my sidebars, you may find some other swappers who have posted their creations today or in the next few days.  I hope Jeanette and the others in this swap like my card!

It is time for another The Three Musketeers post.  We are ready to showcase the card we all created with the image that Kelly provided this month for Card #12!  We have now completed 4 rounds and Jeanette will be up for November and lucky #13!

For our card this month, Kelly sent this sweet Lil Inker Designs image--isn't it the sweetest!  Kelly also sent three sentiments and I thought this one was perfect for the inside of my card.  I even added banners, as those are one of Kelly's favorite things to add to her awesome cards!

Here is the inside of my card:

Happy Halloween

This card is for the monthly swap that Pam hosts on SCS.  Each month we make 10 cards and include a matching envelope.  They can be any theme for any month.  All of the swappers are wonderful and I have received awesome cards each and every month.  Halloween is later this month, so I inked up one of my favorite stamps for this holiday!  I added orange Smooch to the bugs for color and shimmer!
