Sharing the Love with Dueling Darlings!


Good (late!) afternoon!  It's time for another round of friendly, sweet dueling with the Darlings - that's the Divas and the Dazzlers "dueling" with a love theme! :)   This month Jamie was our hostess for us, the Divas,  and she sent us a card kit with this Inkadinkadoo stamped image and a kit full of wonderful papers, ribbon, bling, hearts and pearls to embellish our cards with - yummy!  :-)

I made a simple candy holder with my paper - I found some Real Red cardstock in my scrap basket and paired it with two sheets of the dsp from Jamie to the front top and center.   I added a ric rac trim, heart shaped brads and overall, this is pretty simple.  The tag was an after thought - also from my stash, and I just matched it to the dsp and added the lovely embossed heart she sent to us.  And the tiny pearls in the water -- did you notice those? I was on the phone yaking away and didn't even remember adding them, ROFL!  Now that's interesting crafting!




My son brought home a lollipop in his huge stash of Kindergarten Valentines so I use it for a prop *grin*  I just think it's the sweetest thing ever when you see the cute little Valentines they bring home from friends and their adorable little scribbled names - CUTE!!!



Entered into:  Tuesday Throwdown - pockets

Be sure to stop on in and see what the other Divas have created for you with this identical image and paper, and then hop on over to see our dueling sistahs - the Dazzlers - and what they've crafted, too!

Blessings to you,

Another reason I"m grinning...I just opened up the most awesome envelope from you in my mailbox! Eeek!! Thank you SO much for the blog candy and the gorgeous papers...AND the card! Girl, I just stood in my kitchen staring at it for about 10 minutes. Absolutely gorgeous! Even my hubby was impressed. His EXACT words: "Wow, it's really heavy!"
