Dueling Darlings ~ Sunshine and Flip-Flops!

Hiya friends! 
 It's the 15th of the month and that means the Dueling Darlings 
post their cards, created from a kit sent by a hostess with a chosen theme.  This month our hostess is the lovely Carol (who, btw, is having a birthday today!  Happy Birthday, dear friend - so blessed by your friendship and wish you many wonderful things the whole year through!)  Carol for the Divas (us!) and Melina for the Dazzlers came up with the theme this month:  
Sunshine and Flip-flops ~ 
which is a theme right up my alley! :)

Carol's kit was bursting with fun-ness for the sun-ness!
Lots of yummy papers, cute sunglasses and flip-flops ...
and two images for us to chose from:  feisty Ethel or sweet little Anya.
I chose the Anya as it reminds me of my girls when they were younger,
always ready for the beach and summer fun ~ such fond memories we have :)



  Thank you, Carol, for your deliciously Summer card kit!
Be sure to stop by and see all the Dueling Darling cards ...
you can find their links in my sidebar :)

Big hugs, Bigger Blessings!
