Tea Time Avery




Hi my name is Donna, I'm 44 and very happily married to my lovely hubby for 21 years. We have two grown up kids, one of each and a gorgeous little Grandson. I'm a Cook/Supervisor at a school and although I love my job, I love the fact that I get weekends and the school holidays off to play in my craftroom. I love stamping, both rubber & digi and the images I enjoy colouring in the most just have to be cute & adorable. I was chuffed to bits when Christine asked me to be a GDT and I had the best time colouring in this little cutie. Thanks for having me Christine.

A Paper Picnic By Jenn Cochran

Good morning PND!!!   My name is Jenn Cochran.  I am the author of Jax Bean Stalks.  Your can find me on FB- Jax Bean Stalks Custom Greeting Cards.  I also own Party Time Tuesdays Challenge blog!    So excited to be party of this fun team.  

Hope you all had a fantastic weekend!  WOW, it sure does go by fast.  We are heading into our second week of school here in Colorado.  But we still cannot help to still enjoy summer swimming fun on the weekends.  So hard to give up summer and accept fall is just around the corner.

In a effort to preserve summer, I am still coloring up summer images.  Today, I am featuring Picnic Ellie. Isn't she just adorable.  I am really loving how her freckles turned out!  So cute!   

This summer fun image went perfect with the RRR's Checkerboard Satin-Daffodil.  It reminds me of a picnic blanket.  If you really like checkerboard, this ribbon comes in a variety of shades!  The satin ribbon easily twists into loops for the perfect bows.  I really like how this bow turned out!  Hope you like it too.


My Paper is Fancy Pants-Park Bench.





Thanks so much for stopping by!  To see more PND projects from me, visit my blog.

A lantern with mermaid Ellie

Hi peeps!! - I`m so thrilled to be here! - This is my (Eva`s ) first post and I`m so honored to be a part of The Papernest Dolls:-) I love these little cuties, and Christine is awsome - I don`t know how she manage to do all the things she does and still produce one cutie after another! I`m so impressed!!

Well peeps I have a project to show you..... hope you like it:-)

I have used the supercute "Mermaid Ellie" and made a lantern. Isn`t she adorable??


She is colored with promarkers, and I have used Stikles on her fish tail.


This is how the lantern turned out:-)


A look inside reveals a bottom of sand and shells, and the candle is electrical so you don`t have to worry about getting burned:-)


 A side view, with the windows and fence. I have used a Martha stewart punch on the roof, Spellbinder dies on the windows and tag on the back. The fence is from Magnolia.


Thank you for watching!

Ellie in Oz




Hi, I'm Tammy Louise! Otherwise known as Handmade by TLC. I'm a married mom of two living in Michigan and I have beencrafting more than 20 years. While creating cards that include coloring stamped images has been rewarding and relaxing for me, I have never been more fulfilled and creative than when I realized my true passion is in shaped cards and SVG files cut files. Being limited only by my imagination and love to inspire others to do the same is my middle name.
I am using the ever so cute Ellie in Oz stamp for my Guest Designer post today....enjoy !




You can see more of her on my blog....
