World Book Day at The Paper Shelter

 Hello Crafty Peeps,

This week at The Paper Shelter we are celebrating our favourite books, which gives so many themes to play with!

One of my favourites as a child was always The Worst Witch and I have read my copy to my daughter. Let me know below what your favourite childhood book was!


'Cool Little Witch' is a great image for this book, as she seems like she wouldn't be the best student at school!

I have made a twisted easel card, with an added side panel to give it that extra space to play with!

I was wondering what to do with the side panel, but I thought about Mildred tying up her boots and thought eyelets and ribbon would be perfect!

I dressed the witch in stripes to portray the uniform at Miss Cackle's Academy. Not the same colours, but I wanted purple to go with my colour scheme.

Please come and join in our challenge this week and remember, you can use any image but if you use a Paper Shelter image you are eligible for a higher value prize!


You can also share your creations over in our Facebook Group.
