Challenge #542 - Inspired By A Book

 Good morning to all our Paper Shelter friends and welcome to this week's new challenge! February is also the Library Lover's Month as well as being the month of love, so I thought we could all show our love of books, book characters and reading with this week's challenge! We all hope you will all enjoy it as well! 

This week's challenge is …

Inspired By A Book

You can create any project you like and can use any image as long as your project uses the theme of Inspired By A Book. It could include a project promoting the love of reading, an image based on a book character, a bookmark or even inspired by the cover of a book. Just be sure to share with us what your book is so we can all have a look at it too! 

Team B have made a fantastic collection of cards and projects this time.  The DT members have all used so many different, gorgeous images for inspiration as well. Be sure to click on their blog links to find out more about each of the projects and the digi stamps they have used too. 

Before I share their cards though, I'm sure you are eager to know who won our 

Lace and/or Flowers Challenge

The lucky person chosen by Random Org is:

Congratulations to Kathy at myasperations!

We now have a quicker way for you to claim your prize of 3 digi stamps from the Paper Shelter Store 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 out with your choices.

Please can you also add Challenge #541 Lace and/or Flowers Winner in your subject line so that it makes it easier for Veronica to see your choices. Please can you also make sure you claim your prize by this coming weekend. 

As always for this week's challenge our sponsors are The Paper Shelter and they are generously offering a really fabulous prize of $30 to spend in their store.
 
 
I know that you have heard this before, but this amazing prize 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 it's still worth taking part in our challenge. 

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, which is just fantastic!

You can enter up to three projects but one of these must show one of our products please; its only fair you do so. 

Please make sure your project is a new project for this challenge and not one that has been entered in previous challenges. No backlinking please. 

Now for Team B and their absolutely wonderfully cold cards this week, I know you will love them and I'm sure you will find lots of inspiration from them for your own cards and projects.

 Aren't Team B's projects all so gorgeous?! I love how so many different things we all love have been used - the designs of every project are just so fabulous! Well done Team B and thank you so much for creating all these fabulous projects.

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 too.

Please don't forget, if you wish to take part in the challenge, that you are allowed to enter up to 3 projects, but please can you make sure that you add one of our products to at least one of your entries. If you don't, unfortunately, you will not be eligible for any of the prizes.

Challenge #539 - Bows and/or Pink

 Good Morning Paper Shelter followers!

Can you believe we're already into February!  I haven't even caught my breath after Christmas yet, and the entire month of January is gone.  It's definitely time to settle in at my desk and get some crafting done.

This week we'd like to see

BOWS and/or PINK

on your project.

With World Cancer Day coming up on the 4th of February, maybe you'd like to add a bow to a card for a cancer fighting warrior in your life, or maybe it's time to make something pretty in pink for a special lady in your life.  Don't forget Valentine's Day later this month too!  I'm so far behind, that feels like a lifetime away for me.

There are lots of options this week, but before we see what the Team A ladies have created to inspire you, let's see who our lucky winner is, from last week's Something Cold challenge:
