National Aviation History Month!



It is the 15th of the month and that means I am showing you a new Dueling Darlings card.  For our November Challenge, Laura Jean and Darlene are the hostesses! They decided on the theme-National Aviation History Month! Darlene is one of the Dazzlers and Laura Jean is one of the Divas, the team I am on, and we are all Dueling Darlings!

Laura Jean gave us the following information-- National Aviation History Month is dedicated to exploring, recognizing and celebrating America’s great contributions and achievements in the development of aviation. Aviation history refers to the history of development of mechanical flight — from the earliest attempts in kites and gliders to powered heavier-than-air, supersonic and space flights".  LJ sent us a great image by Tim Holtz--stamped and already cut out!   The sentiment I picked as one of the two Quote Clips that she sent. She also included some great patterned papers and a kraft tag.  This was a quick and easy card to make--thanks LJ!  


Here is the inside of my card:





I hope all of the Darlings 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.  We take December off, to catch up on missed cards or use parts of other kits.  We will be here in January, so be sure to check back!

There are a few members who do not have blogs:  Suzy and Terry S who both are on the Diva team, and Terry APaola and Debby 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 creations this month!

A Christmas Blessing



I am in a Christmas CraZy group on SCS. We each receive a card kit from another person in the group and made a card with the image and papers sent.  I recently sent Pam a kit and decided to stamp an extra image for me!    I really like the sentiment and I can always use another Christmas card!

Here is the inside of my card:



I am not sure if Pam checks out my blog, but I sure hope she likes this image!

Make it Plaid!



It is the 10th of the month and that means it is time for my card for the monthly themed swap that Terry is hosting on SCS.  Each month she will post a theme and we make cards using any stamp set we believe follows that thought. This is our 35th month and the theme for November is "Plaid ". We were to use plaid any form for this month's card.  I picked some green plaid paper and added a Whipper Snapper Designs image for a Thank You card.  I am sure there will be some wonderful cards this month. 

Here is the inside of my card:


I hope Terry and the others swappers like my card this month too!  We are taking December off and Terry has already posted the January theme.  Be sure to come back in to see what we create!

Rejoice!




Here is my November Crafters of Faith card.  This is a great group that my friend Kelly started on SCS. This is our 23rd month and Vickie gave everyone this challenge: 

Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 "Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." 
challengeanything goes!. 

I saw the word Rejoice first and I knew I needed to use one of my favorite Christmas stamps by Stampabilities.  I can always use more Christmas Cards!  It looks like the image is crooked on the card--but I did stamp it a few times and it was/is straight.  Must be the way it is photographed--yes, I am going with that!

Here is the inside of my card:


I hope Vickie along the others like my card this month!  We are to post between the 7th and 10th of each month, so if you look on my sidebar, you may see other creations.  I know that there will be many posted in the COF thread on SCS too! Jeanette is up for our December challenge and so be sure to check back to see what she picked.
