THE PAPER SHELTER 2021 BLOG HOP



 Good Morning lovely crafters!

Welcome to The Paper Shelter Blog Hop, in celebration of The Paper Shelter's 11th 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:

CELEBRATIONS

This is your first stop on the Blog Hop.  Both Design Teams are participating in the hop, 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 for our challenge, details of which are on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog.



I have chosen one of the adorable older images in The Paper Shelter's store.  The image is called Happy Birthday to Me!

I have coloured the image with Copics and used a Tim Holtz stencil and Distress Ink to create the background for the image.  I've then used a Creative Dies wonky stitches die to cut it out, and another for the tag.

The sentiment on the tag is an Ultimate Crafts stamp.

My papers are from the Stamperia Little Girl paper pack.  I've added a strip of Simplicity lace and Echo Park enamel dots.  The balloons were cut using a set of Creative Expressions dies.




From here, you will need to hop on over to Christine's Blog.  Don't forget to leave your comment for an opportunity to win your choice of one of the fabulous digis available in store!

Good Luck!  

Linda

  17. What a cute card. Beautiful paper uses a cute digi. The bear is also so beautifully colored. Beautiful balloons with holes in them, something different. The cake is also beautiful with the fluorescent colors.
