Challenge #324 - Birthday card

Morning and hello! Welcome back to a new challenge with us here at the Paper Shelter. I hope that you had a great week and had plenty of crafting time. Last time I wrote here we had a snow storm going on, today we have about 9 degrees celcius. How strange the weather has become and with all that comes all the colds. Hope you all stay healthy. We have a nice and fun challenge theme for you all to enjoy this week:

Birthday cards!
As easy as it sounds. A nice lovely greeting for someones birthday.

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

Make sure you follow the theme of the week!

Congrats, you have won three TPS images of your choice. Use the contact tab above to get in touch with the Paper Shelter and Veronica will help sort out your winnings. In the subject line please write "Winner challenge 323". You have until Saturday during the current challenge to claim your prize.


As always, we have a gift voucher up worth $30 when you play with the Paper Shelter brand. Playing with another brand gives you the chance of winning 3 digis of your choice. Nice and easy to play along, right? You can enter our challenges up to three times, but at least one of your creations needs to have a TPS image on it.

Sorry about the short and sweet post today but the flu has totally taken the best out of me. Second week and I am so tired of it all. Anyway, I hope you have found some smashing inspiration from the team and that you will come and join us for this week's challenge. It should be nice and easy we hope. 

Take care everyone and do something that makes you happy! (Like playing with us here at the Paper Shelter for example!)

Love n hugs
Marie and the Brilliant B-team
