Today is our monthly Greatest Hits post, when we take a particular line of stamps out to play. This month, its Jolinne. I'll admit sadly that I'd not yet inked this cutie. I love her coy expression with her shoulders shrugged and her eyes closed.
You'll want to swing by Kim's blog today after 11am EST, she'll have a list of all the designers with Jolinne samples to share today. And if you're feeling inspired to add to your collection, then today's the day - you can use the code JOLINNE to save $5 on any Jolinne set
I'll make a little admission here too, sometimes I get nervous coloring Miss Jolinne's hair, there's just so much of it, and I don't want to blend it too much, I wanted it to be all piecy with highights and lowlights. Then I remembered a cool trick from Mel - she used to scratch the surface of her hair with a paper piercer or a needle, and then color over it. Its cool how it takes to the color differently. Have a great day everyone, I forgot that today was a no school day when I did my daycare calendar and I have MORE than a full house today. Wish me luck.....

Hey Buddy!!! How are you?! I haven't stopped by your blog in a while! LOVE the Jolinne card! It looks like it needs to be in a story book! Perfectly colored and accessorized! Awesome!!! :)
Nicely done, especially the hair....actually that is why I like Jolinne's in particular...because there is more surface to color. Fantastic card as always!
Sweet!

I think the paper is so cute you don't need it to be complicated. It's a sweet card.
