Katie, Katie, Katie....my sweet and loving friend. Yes, the one who gave up trade secrets, regarding the proper attire for crafting with stamps. Confused? Take a peek HERE to see how this all comes together, in Jammer Town. Yes, it is a place, one dear to our hearts. The land of paper, ink and yes...jammers! It is official you know, the finest stamping is done in jammers, all over the world! Actual clothing has been known to restrict the flow of fine motor skills associated with stamping, and much freedom is gained by jammers. (Especially monkey jammers, but keep that on under your hat, k?) This freedom also allows privacy, and not feeling the need to answer the doorbell, etc. Yes, jammers, they bring peace to the Stamping World! There are however, certain edicts prevail in Jammer Town:
You are free to refer to the application of lipstick as “Getting Dressed”.
You are free to snack on chips and salsa, in lieu of an actual meal.
You are free to let go of dusting, vacuuming, and dishes- as these are quite restrictive to the even flow of creative juices.
A ceiling fan on “High” is actually called the “Card Dryer” in Jammer Town.
Ladies, the secret is out. So, enjoy. Get some coffee, and live free in Jammer Town! Katie, your card was so inspirational! I love it, and your story too, (even tho you gave me up!) Bless your heart sweet friend! You are hereby dubbed, “Sweet Lady Katie”, High Princess of Jammer Town. Hugs.....and one for Bax too! Woof!
Main image is from Rubber Romance is paper pieced, (a much needed skill when one struggles with coloring!) I totally cased Katie's card, changing the papers and image.
Thanks for looking!
Psst...that is not Seam Binding either, it's the string from my jammers! JK!

Well no wonder! I've been doing it wrong! PJ's huh? I dunno... you haven't seen mine. One fave summer pair are SpongeBob. Don't even ask! But I have to say...remember to turn off the ceiling fan during embossing or glitter use. I always forget that part. Everything sparkles, lol.
Fabulous card, Pat! Those colors are my terrific and I love your layout and ribbon.

You are so hilarious and fun Pat!!! Yes, I think it is true, we all know about jammer town. Is that why we pick the hobby we do, or is is the other way around? Your gal still looks pretty high class and fancy - surrounded by beautiful flowers and pearls. Thank you so much for sharing your story and card with us. :>) hugs!!

GF thank you, I was afraid maybe I needed a 12 step program for this jammer problem, it is good to know there are others like me out there. Heck I even do church in my jammer's some Sundays...its nice that the computer I use to watch it live is in my stamp room, helps with the multi tasking things in life. I can sing and PTL like nobody's business when I am home alone...stamp a little, sing a little, take a note or two, stamp a little. Like others above I promise to continue to uphold the Jammer Code!! Blooms you are a breath of fresh air with all your stamping today. Hugs.

Pat, this back and forth between you and Katie is hysterical. I love both cards - both cards are sooo fun and inspirational for those of us who believe in jammie stamp uniforms. I wish there were more jammie days in the week! Love this sweet card full of fun and heart. Hugz and LYMI to both you and Katie.

Such a story teller you are, Pat. This pj clad lady caught my eye. Truth be told I work out of a home office for my regular job and I've been known to spend my day in the pajamas. It totally frees a girl to be productive!! The card is just amazing my friend.
