Weekly Winners - Dynamic Duos #3

Thank you to everyone who joined in our Dynamic Duos Challenge #3! We loved seeing your "Black Tie" creations with Basic Black and Daffodil Delight, with the "dessert" option of dry embossing.


Anne Marie here! I am thrilled to have the honour of choosing the Dynamo Diva for the week! 


This week's DIVA is: 
Mynette from On A Stampage
Mynette's card is absolutely stunning! I love the way she featured the colors with an elegant mix of accents. The silhouette is beautifully framed with the embossed oval, the flourishes and the gorgeous pearls. The layered flower dressed up with baker's twine is also a fabulous detail. Mynette, you really dressed your card up in elegant, black-tie style this week! Congratulations on being my choice for our Dynamo Diva!  

The Dynamos have chosen their favourites for the week, known as the Dynamic Darlings!!! If you are a Dynamic Darling, please feel free to grab the badge above for your blog.
