Challenge 180 - Is it too early for Christmas?

09:00 Cards By MI 6 comments

My favourite time of the year is soon here! I so adore winter and Christmas and after that everything goes down hill. Well at least for me. LoL Yeah. I know, I am a bit nuts but I feel so great during this time leading up to the wonderful time of winter, and that's why we have the wonderful theme of

Is it too early for Christmas?

In plain simple words, we want to see your Christmas cards. I bet most of you have at least a few more to make, do you? Now, read this carefully. We are asking for Christmas so if you use a winter image, it needs to say Merry Christmas or something related to that ok? Good, I hate removing entries because you don't follow our theme.

Well done Isabelle and congratulations and we now have a quicker method
for you to collect your prize and that is by clicking on the "Contact Tab" at the
Top on the Tabs Bar it will give you a form to fill up with your choice
3 digi images and can you make sure you put Challenge #178 in the subject bar
 and please also dont forget to add your email address to make it easier
                         for Veronica to sort out your images and get them to you quickly.

Of course we have the best sponsors in the Digi World and they are Veronica and Pedro of The Paper Shelter and they are offering the winner $30. to spend on their website

But of course this always comes with the rule that you must have used one of their products on your card and that could be either a Image, Paper or Printable, but even if you havent they will still give you 3 digi images or your own choice so its a real win, win situation. Please dont forget that we only allow 3 entries in every Challenge and one of those must have one of the TPS images. And if you look in the right hand column you will see that we have a Halloween Sale over at The Paper Shelter.
And now as always you will know that this is the part of this post I absolutely love as it gives me the chance to show you what my very talented Design Team have created for you and this week is no exception they really are a such clever lot and I want to thank them all for their hard work.

Challenge 178 Monsters and/or mythicals

08:00 Cards By MI 5 comments

Morning to you all! I hope you feel way better than I do today as I suddenly knocked out by a bad cold. From zero to 100 in no time at all. And as my boys was sick last week, my planing went downhill again. Anyway, that's not why you are here. You want to know what our new theme is for the coming week, right?

Monsters or Mythicals

This means we want to see monsters of any kind ("real" ones, not a cute brat because in that case I would put a picture of my boyz here. lol), witches,  fairies, unicorns, elfs etc. And it has to be the main focus of your card. If you have a ghost on your project or a zoombie, it really has to show that it is just that. A tiny spider in a corner or something like that DOES Not count as monsters. (And no Santa does no count as a mythical creature in this case) LoL

I will remove any creation that isn't following our theme. It's a nice and easy one and should not be any trouble at all for you to follow. It's sad when we have to remove entries because of you not reading the post. It's always states clearly in the beginning of the post what the theme is.

http://www.thepapershelter.com/

After that lesson, we now have come to our winner of the week. Mr Random has done his work once again and this weeks lucky winner is

Number # 32, kalySto

Your creation is really lovely. Well done!

Challenge 176 - Pearls

08:00 Cards By MI 3 comments

Good morning and welcome back to our corner of the challenge world. This is the first weeks with the new teams here at the Shelter. We are starting off with an easy theme

Pearls

EDITED 4/10-14

We are asking for PEARLS (plural, that means TWO or more). We are not asking for gemstones as that is not the same. We don't care if you use pearl string, or beading pearls, or pearls on pins or half pearls but it needs to be pearls...

The ones not following the theme will not be in the prize draw, sorry!

So please make sure you follow this simple theme of ours this week. xxMarie

Nice and easy, right? So any kind of pearls with an "S". That means more than one and you are in the draw for this weeks challenge. Remember that if you play with a Paper Shelter image you have the chance of winning a voucher worth $30!

http://www.thepapershelter.com/

There wasn't that many entries last week, but the ones being there was smashing. There is one or two card styles I have to try myself. Really nice work all of you! Luckly for me we have Mr Random chosing our winner this week, well just as all weeks. The lucky winner is
Number 14, Dewi
