The Paper Shelter Christmas Break challenge - Anything Goes

 

Welcome to my blog!

Can you believe it's Christmas time?  Just one for Paper Shelter challenge for 2022. 

 I coloured Are you ready my friend?  and fussy cut it.  I wanted to use soft non-traditional colours so found this lovely pink paper  with snowflakes.  You can never have enough snowflakes so I punched some more and added Stickles.  The tree is a die cut. 

I added some lovely bauble trim and lace.  

The sentiment is part of the KaiserCraft St Nicholas stamp set.

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 The Paper Shelter Blog Hop, 

in celebration of The Paper Shelter's 12th Birthday on the 8th of December!  

This will be a two week challenge, with both teams taking part, 

and it's our way of thanking The Paper Shelter for sharing their wonderful images with us, 

and sponsoring our challenge.

The theme for this special challenge is:

BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS

Both Design Teams are participating, showcasing the gorgeous images available from

 The Paper Shelter, and each blog on the hop is offering one lucky commenter a digi of their choice, as well as the main prize, details of which are on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog.

For my background, I blended a variety of colours of distress inks and with a stencil by Crealies No. 20.  The digi image is call Pop Star and I coloured her with Copics. I cut the image out with a Nellies multi frame die, No. MFD094. 

The sentiment is part of two die sets by Crafti Potential called Happy and Birthday.  The embellishments are Dress It Up buttons.

The Paper Shelter Challenge #532 - Something Yummy (Food and/or drink)

 

Welcome crafters!

The image I chose for this challenge was just perfect.  Nothing more yummy than a cold slice of watermelon on a hot summer's day.  The image is called The Sweetest Watermelon.  I used Copics to colour the image and distress inks for the soft blue sky.  The papers are from the American Crafts Amy Tangerine paper pack.  I used a tag die by Spellbinders Shapeabilities and added an eyelet and polka dot ribbon.  

I added some wooden watermelon slice embellishments.

The sentiment is partly die cut alphabets and a stamp combination.

The Paper Shelter challenge #524 - Anything but a card

 

Welcome crafters!

For our challenge this week, I used one of the new images in The Paper Shelter store called Vintage Amy.  She is coloured with Copics and fussy cut.  I used a Spellbinders Shapeabilities die cut tag behind the image. The mini gift bag is made from paper from the Stamperia Around the World paper pack.  I thought this would be a cute gift bag filled with hand sanitiser and a few mints for someone going on a trip.  

Side view of the gift bag.

The back of the gift bag is also lovely.

And a close up of the front.
