THE PAPER SHELTER CHRISTMAS BREAK CHALLENGE 2024: ANYTHING GOES

Good Morning lovely crafters!  It's time for our Christmas Break!  This challenge will run for 4 weeks.

Our theme is:

ANYTHING GOES

I have used Cookies With Santa on my card.  

I have coloured the image with Copics, and used paper and the sentiment panel from the DCWV O Christmas Tree paper pack.

You can barely see them, but I've added an Offray ribbon, and a strip of Birch Creative lace.  I then ended up covering them up, so that was a complete waste!  My flowers are Blossoms by Vivaldi, and the pearls are FabScraps.

Our winner will win a 6 products of your choice if you've used a Paper Shelter product on your entry (you could choose the pre-coloured image, the black and white digi, or the digital paper that comes in the set), or 3 products of your choice, if you've used another brand.  You can enter the challenge up to 3 times, provided you've used a Paper Shelter product on at least one of them.

Wishing you a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year!

THE PAPER SHELTER SPECIAL TRIBUTE: IN HONOUR OF THOSE WE LOVE

This week and next, rather than running our usual Blog Hop, the Design Team at The Paper Shelter is honouring our beautiful co-founder Veronica, who tragically left us on the 25th of September 2024.

Veronica was a kind, supportive, beautiful soul, who alongside her co-founder Pedro, produced the images we all know and love to create with.

There is a vacuum in the world today, where Veronica used to be, and we will miss her terribly.

I've used one of the last images Veronica uploaded to the store, Lunar Dreamer, coloured with Copics.

Our winner for our TRIBUTE challenge will win a 6 products of your choice if you've used a Paper Shelter product on your entry (you could choose the pre-coloured image, the black and white digi, or the digital paper that comes in the set), or 3 products of your choice, if you've used another brand.  You can enter the challenge up to 3 times, provided you've used a Paper Shelter product on at least one of them.

PASSION FOR MARKERS CHALLENGE #767: FALL OR WINTER

 

Good Morning crafty friends!

This week we have a super prize up for grabs from our generous sponsor 

Our theme for this one is:

FALL OR WINTER

I've used Maiara Indian Maiden on my card.  She has such a lovely Autumn/Winter feel to her, and I've had her in my stash for quite a while, so it was lovely to pull her out for this one.  

I have coloured the image with Copics and used a set of Poppy Crafts dies to frame her.

My papers are from the Studio Light Wonderful Autumn paper pack.  I've added some webbing and two ribbons: Offray and Tim Holtz.  I've added flowers by Prima, Green Tara, Little Birdie and 49 and Market, and I've finished off with a few Echo Park enamel dots.  The butterfly is Little Birdie.

Be sure to pop over to the blog to see what the rest of the team had in mind this week, and get your entry in for a chance to win a super prize from our sponsor.

Thanks for popping in!

THE PAPER SHELTER CHALLENGE #617: THE LITTLE ONES

Good Morning lovely crafters!

Our theme this week is:

THE LITTLE ONES

(Something for a child)

I've used one of the adorable images from the Baby Animals colouring book.  It's filled with the cutest images of puppies and kittens, and even some teddies, like this one.

I have coloured th eimage with Copics and used paper from two Echo Park paper packs: A Birthday Wish, and Happy as can Bee.  The little bee stickers come from the paper pack too.  The leafy ring is a Jeanine's Art die cut, the wheat border is a Paper Rose die cut, and the sentiment shape is a Spellbinders die cut.

I want to post this card to a special little girl, so I didn't want to add anything that would add dimension to the card.

Our winner will win a 6 products of your choice if you've used a Paper Shelter product on your entry (you could choose the pre-coloured image, the black and white digi, or the digital paper that comes in the set), or 3 products of your choice, if you've used another brand.  You can enter the challenge up to 3 times, provided you've used a Paper Shelter product on at least one of them.
