Say what?

Good morning!



Things are running a bit behind this morning so I'll try to keep this short and sweet. :)

It shouldn't be too hard, though if you ask me this little Jade looks a tad more spicy than sweet, LOL! Yep, I've got another one of the fabulous Roll Call Sprouts to share today and miss Jade here had just enough attitude to elbow her way to the front of the line in order to be the first of the girls that I inked up. There is just something about her cute pigtails and big old boots that makes me think this girl may have a tough exterior but is a total softie on the inside. So I wanted to play up that juxtaposition with the rest of the elements on the card. I stamped the brick background but made sure it was in a pretty, girly shade of pink and I think the touches of black add a bit of drama to the whole design.



Ok, seriously... I've gotta get movin'! Hope you all have a fabulous day today, I think the weather man said we might be hitting 80 degrees! :)

Hi Amy! Miss Jade is my fave of the new set and I have been making myself wait to ink her up but after your fabulous card (and Kim's the other day) I am thinking I shouldn't have waited because now I am intimidated! I Love her pink hair and the pink brick background is a great touch! :-)Traci
