Challenge #467 - A Birthday Card

Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers its been a busy week for a lot of us and luckily here in the UK the weather has been beautiful and I really do enjoy it though we've been threatened with colder, cloudy and windy weather for the future, not looking forward to that or the damage it will cause on my garden.
This weeks theme is a really helpful one or at least it is for me and that is
 
A Birthday Card
 
and hopefully it will enable you to make that special card you need for family or friend in the future.
Before I start to introduce you to our new Team members I had better get my priorities right and let you know who won last weeks "Dies and Punches" Challenge set by Marie and the person chosen by Random Org is:-

Congratulations Maria and well done, we now have a quicker way 
of you claiming your prize of 3 of digi's and this is by 
clicking on the Contact Link at the top of the blog this will
take you directly to a page for you to fill our with your choice.
Please can you also add Challenge #466 in your subject line so that
it makes it easier for Veronica to see your choice. Please can you
make sure you claim your prize by this coming weekend. 
 
As always for this weeks Challenge our sponsors  are The Paper Shelter and they are generously offering a really fabulous prize of $30 to spend in their store.  And we have a brand new Challenge badge and here it is.
 
 

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. 
  
Now is the time for me to introduce you to our two new Team Members and they are Heidi and Julie, and they have created two beautiful cards for their first Challenge and I know with the rest of the Team we want to welcome them to the Team and sincerely hope you enjoy your time with us, Welcome Girls. Luckily Christine is able to take part this week and I want to thank her as she is so busy at the moment helping with her local Health Service we wish her some time that she can spend with her family and some down time for herself to recover from being so busy. 
So now to show you what  the Girls have created for you and its so lovely to have a full Team again.

Shirley using Crow Bakasana


Lorraine using Teacup Yorkie














 
 
I do want to thank the A Team for all their hard work and to say the cards are all stunning and they really do show our theme to the best this week.
Don't forget if there is a image which the Team have used above on their card which you would like to use for your own, don't forget to click on the "Using" link above each of the cards and it will take you directly to the webpage where you will be able to buy it, they really are fabulous value to.
Please don't forget if you wish to take part that you are allowed to enter 3 projects but please can you make sure that you add one of our products to one of your entries, its only fair isn't it? If you don't unfortunately you will not be eligible for any of the prizes. 
And now its your turn to show us what you can do with the theme this week "A Birthday Card" and we all look forward to seeing what you decide to do with it.

Challenge #465 - Girl Power

 Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers, today has been a busy start what with taking the dogs to the vets, and then one of them escaping out the back gate, and hubby and I rushing off to catch him, but luckily the sun is out so everything seemed to be not quite so bad and its so pretty with the trees starting to leaf up, I love this time of year don't you? We did manage to catch him luckily and get to the vets 2 mins before our appointment. Anyway this weeks theme is all about

Girl Power

and for this we want to see how you interpretate it and look forward to seeing your entries.
And to start I will give you the name of the person who Random Org picked for last weeks theme that Marie set for you "Add a Sentiment" and that person chosen was:

Unfortunately Christine is unable to join the team this week due to having to work so much due to covid (shes a nurse) and is finding crafting difficult to be able to spend time at, hopefully she will be able to join us in our next Challenge in two weeks time. Hopefully by then we should have our two new Team Members and this will at last make a full team again, Im sure whatever happens you will enjoy what the girls have created for you so here they are.
