Gosh I love the warm weather and being outside.... well other than the bugs! ha ha ha I HATE the summertime bugs! You know one of my favorite things about summer..... fresh fruit poured into home made ice cream! (Yeah, did your really think I was THAT healthy? Ha ha ha!) When I saw this sweet little Ice Cream Ellie I knew she was the perfect image to use for a sweet summertime card.

Hang 10 Inspiration!

Well Hello everyone, DT Jammie here with a sweet little Avery card today to inspire you.  I just adore this new release!!! It's finally starting to feel like summer, and summer is my favorite!  I colored up Surfer Avery here with my Copic markers on XPress-It blending stock and placed her on some awesome papers that I have had for over 12 years!!!!! Yeah, you totally read that right! I'm not ashamed to be a paper hoarder, it happens to some of the best people! Ha ha ha! 

Here's my card:

I hope that little Avery inspires you and that you all enter our "anything goes" challenge this month! Have an awesome weekend, catch some rays, and hang 10 for a while.

Happy crafting! -Jammie

Spring is in the air...

   Hello everyone, DT Jammie here from rainy Idaho. Never fear though, April showers bring May flowers! Sweet little Avery here is enjoying the little bugs that come out of hiding when spring rolls around. Avery with Fireflies is a new image this month and isn't she just the cutest?
   I used so many Copics to color her, and changed my mind on what colors to use about a million times, that I forgot to write down what ones I used.

   I can tell you that the skin blend I used is E04, E11, E21, E00, E000, and R20. Her Hair is E29 and E37, and a highlight color that I can't recall. Ha ha ha! Sorry guys.  The papers are Stampin' Up! and a few scraps from my bin (it's HUGE, because I'm a paper hoarder), the flowers are from the $1 bin at my local Michael's store, and the Washi Tape is from Recollections.

   This Image can be purchased from the Paper Nest Dolls Shop and she has a few friends all ready for spring that you should check out too.  This card was made to inspire you for our "Anything Goes" challenge going on this month, check back a few posts for full details. You can also check out my blog to see some of my other creations.

   Hope you all have a wonderful week and happy stamping!
