SPECIAL TRIBUTE CHALLENGE - IN HONOUR OF THOSE WE LOVE

 Normally we would be kicking off our Blog Hop today, to celebrate The Paper Shelter’s birthday, but after the tragic loss of Veronica a few weeks ago, we’ve decided to honour Veronica instead with a Special Tribute challenge.  Both design teams have contributed, either choosing to use an image that has a special connection to Veronica for them, or creating something special to honour her.


Our theme this week is:
IN HONOUR OF THOSE WE LOVE

We’d like to see your projects for those people or pets that have a special place in your heart, of any theme.  This challenge will run for two weeks, and our usual prize will be up for grabs.

Veronica was a beautiful, kind, warm-hearted woman who played such a huge part in our crafty world, and she will be sorely missed. 

Before we share the beautiful projects the team have put together in honour of Veronica, let’s choose our winner from last week’s INCLUDE A SENTIMENT challenge:

DT CALL

 THE PAPER SHELTER DT CALL

If you are looking for this week's challenge, you can find it here.

Sadly, a few of our treasured team are leaving and a few spots are opening up.  We'd love to welcome you to the team, so we're running a DT call for the next two weeks.

PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS NOT THE CHALLENGE POST!  

This is only for DT applications.  You can however enter the same project in both the challenge and the DT call, but only projects entered here will be considered for the DT positions.  Please add DT after your name, when you enter your project.

This DT call will run from the 21st of November until the 5th of December.

To enter the DT call:

Please use a digital image on your project.  It doesn't have to be a Paper Shelter image, but since we are a digital image company, we'd like to see your work, using a digital image.

Please only enter one project for the DT call.  We'll scroll around on your blog to look at other projects, when we're there.

We are looking for skilled crafters with good colouring skills.

You don't have to enter a new project for the DT call.  Choose one that perfectly shows your style.

You must have a blog where you regularly post your projects.

You must be able to communicate in English, as this is the only language we use on the DT blog.

We'll be looking at the quality of the photographs you take of your projects as well.


What we require of our team members:

Your duties on the team will start in the new year, but you can begin working on those projects immediately.

You will be assigned to either Team A or Team B, who alternate weeks on the challenge blog.

You will be required to make one project every 2nd week, and during the week that your team's challenge is live on the challenge blog, you will need to comment on entries.

You will be assigned two entry numbers to comment on.

Projects need to be uploaded to the DT blog by Monday evening at the latest, in the week of that particular challenge, but you will be able to work ahead.

You will be required to take quality photos of your project, upload them to the DT blog, and in your own blog post on your personal blog, on challenge day.

You need to link back to the image and/or digital papers you have used, in the shop, so customers can find those products.

We typically run a Blog Hop every year, as well as a couple of special challenges, and you will be required to make a project for those.

While we are looking for good colouring skills, The Paper Shelter also has pre-coloured images and digital papers, and you are welcome to use those in your projects occasionally too.


What do you get as a team member?

When you join the team, you will receive a generous voucher from The Paper Shelter to stock up on images to use in your first few challenges.

You will receive all newly released products during your time on the team.

That's it!

If you have any questions, feel free to add them to the comment box.

We will only be contacting you if you have made it onto the team.
