The Dueling Darlings- Spring

Its that time again for the Dueling Darlings- Spring theme


I used a sketch-Tuesday Morning Sketches for this card. I colored the sweet image with Copics and added some shimmer with a Sakura Gelly Roll pen. I am going to enter this into the Double D challenge- Yellow is the color and I used flowers. Also, Chocolate, Coffee and Cards wants Polka Dots : )  Simon Says Stamp Wed challenge is Polka : )

I had to create another:


 For this card, I used a sketch from the Outlawz -Wednesday Sketch Challenge. I colored the sweet image with Copics and added some shimmer with a Sakura Gelly Roll pen.

Terry's kit included the following items:

Images: Somebunny to Love (received in a magazine issue of Quick Cards Made Easy from the UK)
Sentiment: Stampin' UP! Easter Blossoms
Designer Paper: Echo Park "Spring"
Embellishments: Prima Flowers, Fawn Lawn Twine, and Jillibean Soup Sequins

The Dueling Darlings are a group on Splitcoaststampers. We are divided up into the Divas and the Dazzlers. Each group receives a kit, and we all create with a like theme.  Then, we hop to each others blogs to see what everyone has created. The links are on my sidebar- stop on by and see how the other ladies interpreted the theme : )


Thanks for stopping by!
