Well, it is the start of a new round of duels. Jeanette was our hostess (that is for the Dazzlers) and Kelly hostessed for the Divas (they really are...lol). Between the two of them, Jeanette and Kelly, they came up with a great and challenging theme:
"What NOT to wear!"
If you have ever seen that show, or even heard of it, you know that individuals with questionable taste get remade....
Yep, we all received kits that didn't necessarily "match".
Here's what was included:
DP's:
Colorbok Beautiful Music
Paper Company Double Sided Mulberry - green/lt gr
Paper Pizazz Yummy Chocolate Chips
Paper Studio Girly Graffiti, Hibiscus Flowers, Multi Colored Bursts,
Water Color Floral, and Watercolored Balloons
Embellishments:
Eyelet Outlet - mug and Bux cup
Heidi Swapp - Anywhere stickers
Karen Foster Designs - orange floss
Making Memories - Remeber Ribbon
Simplicity Buttons - green, pink and purple
Vintage key from a treasure hunt
I must admit that I knew straight away what I wanted to do. Not sure I truly pulled it off, but it sure was FUN!!
The only piece of the kit I couldn't figure out to use on my card was the vintage key....I have some thoughts, but just not with this card...lol...
I did get everything else on it, or in it!
So, have I bored you yet with the details?
Hope not!
Because, here is my card!!
So, what do you think? Did I take this mismatched kit and rework it into something great? (I will settle for okay here, or even fun and passable!)
After you leave me love - you are, aren't you?? Make sure to stop over and visit the rest of the Darling Duelers:

And, our guest this month, Janet!
I tried to forget this part, but I might as well post it....
I am supposed to put a 'questionable' outfit that I once wore into my post. I am not sure the outfit is questionable, but when you put my BFF and I together....oivay!
This is my best friend, Cheryl, and I on our way out to the dance club circa 1986.
Can you say pretty in pink?
I sure do wish I could get away with going out in public like this today....lmbo!
Not only is the outfit "interesting", but those glasses are HUGE!
Thanks for stopping by!
