Our kit for the SCS Diva's was gifted by, Jamie. She send the best kit, thank you! I loved the theme, papers and that she send the entire kit in blue AND brown. We're so dang lucky!!!
I created two of this card. Yes, on top of all of the above Jamie, sent enough to make two cards in each color. There were some great images in addition to the one that I used on this card. A great world nautical theme.
The challenge portion of the kit was to mention a special guy in our life. I gave this card to my dad. I am so very lucky to have a great dad. He is the best! I appreciate all that he has provided for our family, the care he gives to my mom, how he slyly checks to make sure I have enough gas in the car to get home when I visit, how he thought ahead to buy me some orange Tic Tacs {and it was the big box because he knew I would eat them all} when we ran errands last, the patience he has when my grandma calls that she urgently needs toothpaste and has three tubes already and how he worries that I am driving somewhere when it is dark outside. All in all, I think it is probably best he never met that boy that was in a band that I dated way back when! LOL Oh, and if any of you know how to get him off of purchasing the 10 for $10 items at the grocery store, I am looking for ideas!
I hope that you all had a great Father's Day, while in person, by distance or fond memory. Please check out all of the Dueling Darlings creations. Their blog links are on the right sidebar. Thanks, for stopping by!

Oh my, what a regal card you have created with this wonderful kit - love your take on this! I like how you added the compass as the focal point and let the words do the talking ;) (they made me teary eyed!) Beautifully done, my friend - many blessings! x0x0
Great Card Tami--I love that you used the tag punches!
Great layout!
Love it Tami! I absolutely love the plaid paper and the colors! Your layout is cool too.....love the layers, how you used the ribbon, the crystals and last but not least I think I love your dad. He sounds alot like mine and it sounds like he really loves you ☺ You are lucky!! BTW - does he know that he doesn't have to buy 10 just because it's 10 for $10??
Great job tami!!!
I love this tami, great idea to use the SU! Tag punch for the image. :) I could not figure out how to incorporate that image into my card for the life of me! Now I know!
Love the layout as well :) You Go Girl!

Hi Tami! Super card...so worth the wait to see it. You really put the elements from the kit together is such a pleasing and original way. Love how you used the tag as the focal image!!
Love your description of your dad! He sounds like a super great dad...reminds me a bit of my dad when he was alive. Treasure the moments you have with him.
