Each month, and on the 15th day to be exact, we Dueling Dazzlers 'battle' with the Dueling Divas
to compare ideas, learn new tecniques, and creating DARLINGS' cards together .
If you're new to my blog and like to read more details about what it's all about, please check the link to the post *see below*...you won't be disappointed :o)

This month darlin hostess is Michelle aka 'General'. She provided us DAZZLERS with an awesome kit, featuring a 'Thanksgiving' theme which holiday is just around the corner for my American friends. (November ,in fact, is the celebratory month for Thanksgiving Day in the States,
while we Canadian neighbours celebrated the same holiday last October)
In her kit,Michelle included LOTS of wonderful items and I enjoyed using them all to create my card.
Txs Michelle:o)
Michelle also asked us to mention on our blog what is it that we are grateful for...
Well, I am grateful for soooo much in my life, but I will promise ya all that I will try to refrain myself from writing an essay...LOL
I am very grateful for the little things in everyday life....may it be a colorful rainbow after the rain,waking up hearing the birds sing, the first rose my husband picks from our garden just for me....
I am grateful for the amazing grandchildren God gifted me with...their laughter and happiness
make me joyful and hopeful for the future...
I am grateful for family and friends....it's nice to know there are people out there who love me for who I am *faults and all*, that show that they care and do not take me for granted...
Last but absolutly not least, I am mostly grateful for our loving God,
the Master of the Universe and All, without whom I am nothing....
but, with Him besides me my heart sings...*ALLELUJA!*

Oh, Paola....I too could write an essay on the things I am grateful for!
Your card is extraordinary - I love the accent corners - they sure do set off the card!
Oh, Sweet P, this is GORGEOUS! Your cards are always outstanding and this one is no exception!! I love how you colored this beautiful image...Wow! I bet it's even more beautiful IRL!! The way you "framed" it and with the ribbon, leaves and buttons accents really shows it off! Awesome job!!
And I am so very, very grateful for your friendship!
Oh my goodness............ Sweet P, your card is INCREDIBLE! I love how you used everything so beautifully! The corners are amazing! The ribbon is placed perfectly! (I had a difficult time knowing what to do with two kinds of ribbon on the same card... I needed to take lessons from you!) You are such a gifted paper-crafter and a good friend, too! Hugs!
Paola--as usual, your colors are stunning!! Awesome creation and another work of art! I love the corners too!
Your story of Thanksgiving is so sweet!
WOWZERS!!!! Wonderful card Sweet P. I love the corners...what a great idea!!!
Oh my Sweet P....awesome card. It is so fun and inviting..I love how you have incorporated the kit in your card and did such a fun layout...way to go...I also love what you are thankful for. I echo your sentiments...we do need to stop and be grateful for the small things as you so wisely commented on. Sometimes I forget to do that....I am so grateful to call you my friend...(we would be dangerous if we ever got together for any length of time....but oh the fun we would have!!!) Great card my friend.
Awesome card! I love was you did with the card kit. You are so creative. Thanks for playing along...didn't even think that your Thanksgiving was last month.
Wow wingpit sistah....very pretty card. I love the photo corners (for some reason they never work out for me like that)! I really love you bow and your layout too!
Thank you for being part of my circle of friends! I am very grateful for you!!
Your card turned out just perfect. You made it amazing!
Absolutely splendid card this month! So full of rich detail and thanksgiving goodness! I hope this holiday brings you peace and love esp with the trials your family has been going through -- you are in my thoughts and prayers!
