Every month there is a different hostess from each team. The two hostesses decide upon a common theme and then the duel begins! Each hostess creates a card kit for their team and distributes it. From there each team has the same theme, but different kits to create from, thus the duel. Both teams have a specified date to post their dueling card. It is so fun to see how the two card kits differ. As well as within a given group with the same card kit, the different outcomes of the final project.
I was fortunate enough to have been asked to be a guest on the Diva team for the month of February! How lucky am I?!
I received my card kit from, Jamie. It was full of the February theme of love. The quote Jamie sent with her kit was: "I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear." Martin Luther King, Jr.
So with a little love in mind, I went to work! I had a totally fab kit to work with. There were so many items; I could not use them all. I tried to put as much on as possible though!!!
I know, so not super original, but I thought with the theme of love, I would start with an 'L' on the card. The image is from Inkadinkado, Animal Hearts. I chalked the image and used Crystal Effects and Stickles to accent it. There were four different types of DP, so I tried to incorporate them all.....even the little DP from the kit topper. I do hope that I did the kit some justice.
I had a great time being a guest and am thankful to have been asked. Please check out the other wonderful creations from the Dazzlers and Divas at the links below.
