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).
