DDD: The love of penguins!



Hi friends!

I love the 15th of the month because it's pay day!
it's the day we post our cards for the Dueling Darling card group!
The DDD, as it's lovingly called, has 2 teams: 
 The Divas -vs- the Dazzlers
where there are 2 hostesses (one for each team) but only one theme.
 Hence, a 'duel!'

This month, the talented Terry S and the lovely Laura Jean are the hostesses 
and they chose a super fun theme of:
Penguins!

 
 
Oh my heart, when I saw the card kit from LJ arrive in my mailbox,
I squealed! 
I so love Elzybells stamps ~ they are my cherished oldest stamps ♥

I loved this kit so much, I made 4 cards :)
Today, I'm sharing just one for the duel ↓
 


I made a peek a boo window frame 
and tucked the penguin behind this gorgeous paper.
It was hard to chose which of the papers to showcase! 

Here's a quick view of the side to show the dimension:

 
 You can find all the Diva and Dazzlers cards
on our group at Splitcoaststampers. 
I'm very excited that this is our 10th year as a group!

That's a lot of cards, 
a lot of themes 
and a lot of wonderful memories!


 Thanks Terry and Lj for a fun theme this month!

Big hugs, bigger blessings ♥

    Dear Kelly, such a cute card, and your other creations are also lovely ! Sorry I've not been on your blog for so long; my brother had a stroke and I have to care for him, and my little doggy had to be put asleep... Some sad and difficult months for me. Hugs, Enny

    So adorable. The pretty pastel coloured paper is a nice partner with how you coloured that cute penguin. The large snowflake is a nice touch.
