So, it is my official first month. I was stalking the mailbox. The kit materials were sent out so quick, but seemed like forevah to get here! I just had to tear into the kit the first night.
The kit. Oh my, the kit. The kit was themed Being a Kid at Heart! There was so much stuff in there thanks to, Kelly. Enough for multiple cards. The image is adorable and from Riley and Company. There was also an extra special 'challenge' item. I tried to use as many items from the kit as I could. I ended up being able to use eleven items, twelve if you include the image itself. I hope that is enough!
As mentioned were a few little challenges to go with this kit. I chose to use the green items from the kit, as my mom was totally into the green theme for a phase when I was growing up - and I don't mean recycling! Her other favorite color was yellow, so the only added items that I put with the kit were the card base, an accent piece of green DP and a little orange strip of card stock. The challenge piece given was a piece of the puzzle, literally! I used the puzzle piece to start the word for the sentiment inside the card.
I had a great time this month. Please take the time to check out the other Dueling Darlings listed below!

Oh my goodness, Tami! Your card is amazing!!! And look at you...... you used Kelly's son's idea with the puzzle piece and he didn't even have to mention it to you. ;)
I think it's great that you even used the color green because it transported you back to your childhood.
Awesome card! I'm glad you're a Dueling Darling... even if you are a Diva. :)
