Welcome Baby Dragon at The Paper Shelter

 Hello Crafty Peeps,

Our challenge this week at The Paper Shelter is Animals, so that gives you a lot of occasions and themes to play with. I have used 'Newborn Baby Dragon' for a slimline baby card.

I wanted to give the egg shell some texture, so I used embossing powder

I also embossed the die-cut sentiment

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!

A Fairy Fancy Fold at The Paper Shelter

 Hello Crafty Peeps, 

We have such a fun challenge for you at The Paper Shelter this week, as we are asking you to show us a Fancy Fold.

I love trying new folds so had to do something different for this one. Pinterest is a great source of inspiration and this time I chose a diagonal gate fold card using 'Follow Me On Fairybook'. 

I wasn't sure if this card would actually stand up okay when I was making it, but it does and it looks super cool too!

Dancing With Rainbows

 Hello Crafty Peeps,

Sweet November Stamps recently had a digital stamp release entitled "So Enchanting" and I'm a total sucker for mythical creatures, so I had to grab 'Sky Dancer'!

I imagined her dancing in the clouds with a rainbow in the background, so I started off by creating a sky full of clouds using inks and a stencil, then added a die-cut rainbow.

Of course I had to add some shimmer to her mane!

Thank you for stopping by to see my latest creation
