The Paper Shelter Christmas Break Challenge - Anything Goes

 

Welcome to my blog!

Our last challenge for the year has gone live at The Paper Shelter.  

This week our challenge is ANYTHING GOES. 

I used Christmas baubles from one of the new Paper Shelter digital coloring books called Christmas Ornaments.  I used 3 different baubles, colored them with Copics and added gold adhesive pearls to "hang" them from the Christmas garland.  I wrapped some Jolees Holiday lights arounds the garlands and added some Prima Candy Cane Lane leaves and berries. The sentiment is from a sticker pack by Upikit.

Our fabulous sponsor, The Paper Shelter, has a $30 gift certificate up for grabs for our lucky winner this week, provided you use a Paper Shelter product.  You could use a digital stamp, paper or printable image.  If you don't use a Paper Shelter product, you could still win 3 digi stamps of your choice!

Welcome to my blog!

Our new challenge has gone live at The Paper Shelter.  This week our challenge is to use winter colours. I have gone for blues, pinks and purples as I love to use non-traditional Christmas decorations.

Have you seen our new colouring books.  Have a look at the awesome selection on The Paper Shelter website.  I used one of the background image and Christmas digital image called Here is Santa.  I coloured the images with Copics and fussy cut Santa.  I added some sparkly trim and a festive sentiment by Upikit Glittering Stickers.

The Paper Shelter Challenge #574 - Stencil It!

 

Welcome to my blog!

We have a really fun challenge this week at The Paper Shelter using stencils. I used a puzzle stencil by Crealies No. 5.  I used modeling paste to stencil all three sizes of the puzzle pieces.  I sponged different shades of distress ink over the stencils.  The image called Intertwined Hearts is coloured with Copics, cut out with a Spellbinders die and I distressed the edges.  I added a variety of flowers, sparkly gems and a sentiment relating to the puzzle stencil -

"Thanks for being a PIECE of my life".

The Paper Shelter Challenge #558 - Get Outside!

 

Welcome to my blog!

I used The Paper Shelter image called Contemplating Butterflies.  I coloured the image with Copics.  The papers are from one of my favourite paper packs by Stamperia called Provence.  The design of the card is a bit different using my framed image as the front of the card.  

The inside of the card contains a lovely framed tag for a message surrounded by beautifully distressed background paper with gem flourishes.
