A special thank you to Debs who has been with me from the start of this challenge blog. I will miss you a lot and your stunning creations. Tracey has also been with me for a long time. It will be empty without you. Lori, Shelby; your creations are wonderful and will be grately missed here. You are both fantastic designers. It will be empty here without you.  Also a big thank you to Wendy who had to leave a few weeks ago. You helped out when we really needed a designer pronto. Thanks for that! Eileen, thank you ever so much for your stunning creations for the B-team. But luckly for the Paper Shelter you will only leave my team. We will still enjoy your wonderful creations when the A-team has their challenges. I will  however miss you on my team. 

Instead of  these wonderful designers we have gotten 6 new brilliant ones. They will be joining us from the next challenge. Actually some of them are already joining us from this challenge, they just couldn't wait to get started. LoL You will be spoiled with inspiration from these wonderful designers. And such fun bunch they are. It will be wonderful to work with you all and see all the smashing creations you will come up with during your stay here.

Challenge #129 - "A Card with Many Folds"

Good Morning Crafters well yet another week has gone by and its been a very exciting one here at The Paper Shelter, we now have seven new Team Members as you can see from the post below and I have two of them, Anna and Eileen who will be joining my Team on 2nd October, and Eileen will be joining us from Marie's Team then. But for this Challenge we will sadly be saying a very tearful goodbye to Liv who's been with us since the start and it will seem strange without her, shes been such a wonderful part of the Team, but I do want to wish her all the best for the future, and to thank her for all the stunning work she has done during this time.
And now for this weeks Challenge we want to see a card that has several folds and not just one so I hope that you will get your thinking caps on and start creating. But before I show you what the A Team have created this week you will want to know who one last weeks "Sun, Moon and Stars" Challenge and that lucky person picked by Random Org is:-
