DDD: You are my sunshine!


Hello my little rays of sunshine!
I have missed you and blogging/visiting this week ....
I have been enjoying the week long holiday break from schools
and taking some time to tackle things without the school drop offs/pick up interuptions :)
 

Today's card is the first of the new round of the Dueling Darlings Duel ♥
The DDD (Dueling Darling Divas/Dazzlers) is near and dear to my heart
and truly bring sunshine to my life!
I could never have imagined that a simple thought I had
 while laying in bed in the middle of the night - literally!  I jumped up and jotted it down in a notebook so I would not forget it! - would lead to the group
growing in friendships and creations.
And here we are - 7, maybe 8 years later, going strong!
It makes this 'mama' proud! :)
 This month, Jeanette and I are the hostesses 
and our theme is super bright:  You are my sunshine!
I sent team Divas their card kits and included a sweet image
from CC Designs ~ Sunshine little pixie
and a cheerful selection of papers, ribbons and shiny gems.
I'm naturally drawn to really pretty, vivid and bright colors
so the Divas definitely had to squint this month making their cards,
but it just beamed sunshine to me with the color palette and pretty stamp :)




And here is the inside of my card:


You can see what the other Divas created with this same card kit
by peeking on their blogs, listed over on my blog bar to the right →
And to see what the Dazzlers made with the kit Jeanette mailed out,
you can find them there, too!

I wish you a bright, sunshine kind of day!

Big hugs, bigger blessings ♥
~Kelly

  2. Oh my goodness, Kelly... your image... I love it!!! (I might need to do some shopping.) And your card - it's just way too darling for words. The bright colors scream Kelly and the fantastic coloring does, too.

    I'm glad you woke up in the middle of the night - and had the presence of mind to jot down a note to remind yourself later. ;) Thanks for letting me be part of this venture from the very beginning!

    You are my sunshine, dear friend!
