Summertime - an' the livin' is easy...

Another fun image for me to play with - they are calling him a Gnome - but he looks like an elf on his summer vacation to me!
If you like "Gnomey Drew", you can purchase his image HERE 
from Make it Crafty
Here is the inside sentiment...


Isn't that a good reason for that smile on his face and the livin' to be easy? 

Aud Sentiment's is mid-week in it's "Summertime Sentiment" Challenge and there are more DT  "Summertime" inspiration pieces ready for you.  You have another week to get up to FIVE submissions for a chance at the prize from Make it Crafty!  Check for the deadline and the rules at Aud's blog!
