Challenge #231 - Shades of Blue

Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers and a Happy New Year from the A Team, I hope you all had a wonderful time with your families, mine was very quiet with hubby and the dog but it was made extra special because a couple of days afterwards I got to see my new great grandson, plus his brother and my grandson and wife, and hubby got to see his daughter and her daughter to, so other than having my cataract done on the 29th it turned out to be a really memorable Christmas.
Anyway I had better stop my chatting and tell you whats happening this week, and Im so happy to see that not only the Christmas Challenge but also last weeks one was very well up on entries and I hope that this weeks one will do equally well as its all about the "Shades of Blue" on your card and I look forward to seeing what you come up with.
As always I know that you will want to know who the lucky person was who won last weeks "Punches and/or Dies" and that person chosen by Random Org is:

Morning and welcome back to a new year with us over at the Paper Shelter. I hope you all have had a great time with family and friends and even managed to spend some time crafting. For me it have been very little crafting done as this time of the year is a time when we keep busy with indoor soccer here in my part of Sweden. Lots of hours cheering the teams on. Well, now we're soon back to normal again, both with our normal lifes and with our challenges here at the Paper Shelter. We start 2016 off with a nice and simple challenge - 

Punches and or dies

It's would be nice to see more than just the simple squares or circles for this challenge. Be inspired by the stunning work done by the team. :) 

Please do check our rules before entering your card. They are just a few and very simple.
