Just a quick note to let you all know that a guest designer has been picked. Her name is Maria and you find her lovely blog here. 

A big thank you to all of you that applied to my little call for a gdt.

Make it Digital!

In other words use a digital image (no rubber/ clear/ or other stamps allowed), colour with your computer, use digital designer papers. The choice is yours. Sentiments made digital in anyway does not count. DP's, images and colouring it is...

Due to personal reasons have I lost one of my designers during this time. We send our regards and big thanks to Carolyn for all her work on team. It has been brilliant having you with us here at the Paper Shelter. We send our warm regards to you and wish you all the best. And with two of  "my" other designers having some time off, I am kind of shorthanded this week. The lovely Angela has stepped in from the A-team and made a lovely card. You are a star! Thanks! 

And with all this said, I need to find a guest designer. Is anyone interested? I know that it's summer holiday for many of you out there and here in Sweden we only have two weeks left before schools starts again. However the show must go on... If you are interested in a gdt spot here, either leave a comment here or find my e-mail on my personal blog. I will pick one of you to design for us with the first challenge starting with the next B-team challenge 20th of August. (You will be joining us for three challenges). You have until Sunday night (Swedish time) to contact me in any way you can... Don't forget to have some contact info on your blog so I can EASYLY contact you if you are the chosen one. 

Well with all this said, I hope you enjoy what the team has made and can find some inspiration from all the lovely creations here. 

Love n hugs
Marie and the hopefully well rested B-team
