New Year's card

Hi!

It's time for some new inspiration for Polkadoodles Craft challenge. You can find more inspiration and join the challenge here 😊

The theme was New Year so I wanted to create something fun and glittery. I used glitter paint markers to create the fireworks on the black cardboard. I stamped the champagne bottle and the flying cork from Cheers Lovely stamp set and coloured them also with glitter paint markers. Then I stamped the flying cork and a sentiment from Bottoms Up stamp set to the background with gold ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. 
 
Lastly I taped the bottle and the cork on the background. It was super fun to do this! Unfortunately the pic taking wasn't so easy because of all the glitter but I hope it shows well enough the fun and colourful New Year's eve 😊

Tribute to Veronica

Hi everyone!
 
 
This week and next, rather than running our usual Blog Hop, the Design Team at The Paper Shelter is honouring our beautiful co-founder Veronica, who tragically left us on the 25th of September 2024.




Veronica was a kind, supportive, beautiful soul, who alongside her co-founder Pedro, produced the images we all know and love to create with.

There is a vacuum in the world today, where Veronica used to be, and we will miss her terribly.
 
 
*** *** ***
 
So, as a tribute to Veronica, the challenge theme this time is "In honour of those we love".

On my card I used Cozy Christmas Together image and coloured it with alcohol markers. I added some patterned paper and a frame but kept the card otherwise quite simple. There is a lot of glitter on the frame, the edges of the card and patterned paper and also some on the girl's hat (doesn't show on the picture unfortunately).

Fun money card

Hi!

It's time for some new inspiration for Polkadoodles Craft challenge. You can find more inspiration and join the challenge here 😊

This time I created a fun card to give with a money gift. 
 
 

 
 
 I used the Curly Christmas stamp set to create the "envelope" part. I stamped the Christmas baubles on a white cardboard, coloured them with watercolours and cut away the part above the baubles. Then I cut a little bigger base from a green cardboard and taped the cardboard I just made on it from the edges.




After I had done the envelope part I cut a card to go partly inside the envelope from a blue cardboard. I cut the holes where I can put a 20€ bill and rounded the upper part of the card. Then I printed Gift Box Parcel Bella and Cooper Christmas Puppy images, coloured them with alcohol markers and fussy cut them. I also made some gifts from Theo Penguin paper bundle 3. I taped the images and the gifts on the card so that they are just on the edge of the envelope part when the card is in and just over the money when the card is out of the envelope. Lastly I added some stars on the blue part of the card with a glitter yellow paint pen.

Then I added some glitter glue and details with white gel pen and white paint pen. The house part I made with stencil and distress ink, added the windows and lastly some details with white paint pen. Then I just taped the image on the upper part of it. It was so fun to do this!

Blue birthday card

Happy Wednesday!
 
It's time for a new challenge at The Paper Shelter challenge blog and this time the theme is "Make it sparkle".



I used the image Cozy Cuddle and coloured it with alcohol markers. I also added some shine to the dress with a Wink of Stella glitter brush pen (unfortunately it doesn't show in the pic).
 
 

 
I coloured the background paper with Distress Ink and then used a stencil and blue glitter paste to create the hearts. I also added some glitter to the flowers. 
 
So there is a lot of sparkle in this card even though it doesn't show very well on these pics 😊

IT inspired atc

Happy Thursday!

This time I share my IT movie/book inspired atc 🎈 And a card I made to send with it. 

I made the atc to Visible Image atc swap and I used Stay Weird and Create It stamp sets. 




I added glossy accents over the balloon and when it was dry I also added a black string before taping it to the atc base.




On the card I wanted to play with the same products and black/red colours, not so much the IT theme.
