This is my card for today's Crafty Secrets Challenge - using those stockpiled, hoarded items. This was SO much fun and it actually felt good to finally use some of these "special" items before they go back into hiding!!
This is a really FUN challenge each Tuesday! You really should give it a try ... this weeks challenge can be found here: Forums at Splitcoaststampers. Thanks for looking!

Oooh, it's almost like a Russian braid but with extra bits, lol - love it! That DP is lovely and I like the way you've used the pearl brads to link the halves of the sentiment, great job Darlene! Looking forward to next week's already :o)

well, your sentiment is the height of truth, Darlene! I love all the different textures you blended together to created this ode to style! I especially like the cotton scrap.

Wowzers Darlene, this is so very vintage. What a perfect sentiment for your styling lady. I love that pink braid and those stickers are so perfect. The MS lace doile punch and pearls really add to your great details.
O.K...the pressure is on! LOL
