TPS - Happy Times

The Paper Shelter is back with our first challenge after our Summer Break, I hope you are all having a lovely Summer, as you read this I will be lazing by a pool in Halkidiki (Greece), lucky me!

The image I have used for my card this week is called HAPPY TIMES and is coloured with Copics.

I used a square stitched die set to cut my layers from various designer papers and added a foiled sentiment.

It's always good to have a 'Boy' card in my stash and this is a great image to use.

TPS - Anything Goes

It's time for our Summer Break challenge over at The Paper Shelter and it is ANYTHING GOES.

I have used the image Genie in the Lamp for my card this week, I just love the cheesy grin.

The image is coloured with Copics with some added Spectrum Noir sparkle pen over smoke.

I kept it simple with a couple of die cuts layered up behind my image and some designer paper on the inside of my card.

This challenge is for 4 weeks, so plenty of time to enter our challenge.

TPS - For that Special Man

This weeks theme over at The Paper Shelter is FOR THAT SPECIAL MAN.

A specials Man in my Life is of course my 13 year old son, so I made this card for his Birthday this year.

The image used is Physical and Spiritual Strength.

I have coloured the image using Copics.

The background circle is coloured with a sparkle posca paint pen.

I picked a backing paper then topped with strips of scrap card to match my colour scheme.

We look forward to seeing your creations over on the Challenge blog.

TPS - Lets get down to Work

Here is my latest Design Team card for The Paper Shelter, our theme is LETS GET DOWN TO WORK.

Choosing an image was easy for this challenge as my Niece has her Birthday soon and she is a Police Women, so I have of course used Police Officer Female.

I kept the layout simple by just matting a layering and adding a little bling down the side of the card.

TPS - Add Texture

Spring is here and the garden is looking lovely, so I wanted to give a sense of Spring in my DT card this week.

The new challenge over at The Paper Shelter is ADD TEXTURE.

I have used the image Lotus Fairy and coloured her in some lovely Spring Colours using my Copics.

For the texture element of my card, I embossed some lilac card stock and then brushed over with a darker lilac ink, to bring out the embossing.

Finally adding some lovely flowers to the corners to frame the image.

We look forward to seeing you over on the challenge blog.
