The Paper Shelter Christmas Break - Anything Goes

 


Welcome to my blog!

It's summertime in South Africa and December is a time for the beach.  So I made a card using I wish I was there!  The image is coloured with Copics,  My background paper is from the Marianne Design Sea Sparkle paper pack and the beach huts and red striped paper is from the Marianne Design Seabreeze paper pack.  I added a die cut lighthouse, a strip of lace and a birthday sentiment.

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!
