A little reminder that we do our best to leave you all a comment or two with the challenge rules in mind. Our team members don't have to comment if you enter more than 10 challenges with your creation. We don't require our teamies to comment on your creation if you enter with any other social media than a blog as we don't all use Google + or other accounts. But you are more than welcome to join our challenges this way. 😊

So this is it for this week. We hope you will enjoy the challenge this week and that you will take the time to play along with us. It's nice and easy and you don't even have to use our products to join in, at least not the first two times you enter the same challenge. After that you need to use TPS images. I hope you find the work as smashing as I do and that you find plenty of inspiration from their creations. Don't be a stranger and please leave a little foot print in the sand...

Love n hugs

Challenge #367 - Shades of Blue

09:00 Nannieflash 1 comment

Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers, well today here in the UK has turned out a rather cold and frosty so I thought the theme for this week should be

Shades of Blue

as it certainly will do that to my poor hands if I go out in it, we are supposed to be expecting some snow later so definitely not looking forward to that. For this theme we want to see you use the colour Blue please, of course you can use other colours that are needed to complement your design, but the main colour must be Blue please.

To start this post of I know the most important thing to let you know is who won our last weeks "Digital Image" Challenge was, and the lucky person chosen by Random Org is:-

Congratulations Pam and well done. We now have an even quicker way for you
to claim your prize and that is by clicking on the "Contact" tab at the top of the Blog where you will find a form that you can add your choice of 30$ worth of digi images.
Please also add you email address and Challenge #366 in
the subject line so that it makes it easier for Veronica to see which Challenge 
your claim is for, also you must make sure you claim your prize by Saturday this week.
  
And here is Pam's Card using So Classy 

 
As always our sponsors for this Challenge are The Paper Shelter and they are offering a really fabulous prize of $30 to spend at their store. 
 



I know that you have heard this before, but this will only be given if you have used one of our products on your card which could be either an Image, Paper or Printable. However, even if you haven't used an item from The Paper Shelter and you are picked as a winner you will still receive 3 digi images of your own choice so I'm sure you will agree that its still worth taking part in our Challenges. So many more of you are actually using The Paper Shelter items in your creations so a lot more winners are now winning the whole $30 to spend.  You can enter up to three projects but one of these must carry one of our products please, its only fair you do so.

And now to show you what the A Team have been up to and their own interpretation of our theme, as Ive said it before but it always surprises me at how many different images the girls use to create such stunning cards and beautiful effects I hope you enjoy seeing their cards as much as I do.
