Dueling Darlings - ♥ It's All About Love ♥

Today is the 15th and it's time to Duel!

This months hostesses are Judy for the Divas and Paola (my sweet WPS) for the Dazzlers, and here is the theme sent to us work with this round:

Paola and Judy  have chosen this theme of love based on the Bible verses from Corinthians 13: 4, 7, 13

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud…It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres…And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” (New International Version)

There is so much about love to celebrate in February, besides the forever traditional day of love, Valentine’s Day on Feb. 14th.

Some celebrations that take place this month ,and that may inspire you as you create your card for the upcoming duel, are:

American Heart Month
International Friend Month
Random Acts of Kindness Week (10th – 16th in 2013)
Brotherhood/Sisterhood Week (17th – 23rd in 2013)
Send a Card to a Friend Day (Feb. 7th)
Love Your Pet Day (Feb. 21st)
Family Day (Feb 18, 2013 in Canada)

With this theme in mind we would like you to sow the seeds of love and kindness you have received in your life. You are challenged to pay it forward by performing a kind gesture and doing it anonymously! The week of the 10th – 16th may be the perfect opportunity for you to do this.

With that being said, here is my card:

I loved the kit WPS sent to the Dazzlers, it was full of a ton of very cool stuff.....here is the list:

Designer Papers from My Mind’s Eye (Love Me) : 'Hearts'
Pinecone Press (Be Mine) : 'Smoochie' and 'Checkmate'
Ribbon from Recollections (Michaels): red glitter; pink glitter; red and white satin
Divine Twine: pink, white and red twine floss
Heart Wood Clip: ' Celebrate It' (Michaels)
Pink bling hearts baubles (Michaels)
Prima flowers -from my stash-
Various heart brads -from my stash-
1/2" Epoxy Brads 'Sending Love' from SU
Buttons - from my stash-
Stamped images and sentiments, all from SU! : 'Summer by the Sea' ; Circle sentiment : 'Riveting'

As you can see, there was so much to choose from, and I couldn't use everything so I chose the used all of the different papers, the circle sentiment, the bakers twine and the heart brad. To that, I added my own Kraft and Cherry Cobbler cardstock.  I like it, very simple and it could be used for anyone!
