Good Morning Crafters, well its the turn of the A Team to make cards for The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot and this weeks theme is "Winter Blues" and we want to see you use Blue as your main colour and it should suit the weather to, though at the moment we seem to be avoiding snow but how long for Im not sure but its really been wet here in the UK and I know that in some places its been so bad that they have suffered floods, luckily we live up on the side of the hill and the water just seems to collect at the bottom of the road.
Anyway before I show you what I have been up to you will want to know all about the prize, and as always we are being sponsored by The Paper Shelter and they have offered a fabulous prize of $30.
but this is providing you have used one of the products on your card which could be either a image, paper or printable but even it you done they will still give you 3 digi images of your own choice, I think that is one very generous prize, but if you would like to visit their website you will find lots of beautiful and stunning images and all up to date, as they are always adding to their library, you will find them at The Paper Shelter website, just click on their name and browse to your hearts delight.
And now for the card I have made and here it is:-
For the image I have used the "Snow Angel" and your will find it here, I have printed her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, afterwards I used Nestabilitie Labels Die No.8 and the mount is a fancy one which was cut out of blue card. The sentiment is from my stash and has been stuck on a banner die.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of blue card, and the paper I have used is from Bearlymine Designs its one of her Christmas designs. I then used Memory Box dies to create the border and corners and I have used white pearlescent card. The mounted image was then placed in the center and the sentiment was placed across the bottom right hand corner.
Now that you have seen my card I do hope you will pop across to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot and see what the rest of the very talented "A" Design Team have created for your inspiration and hopefully you will feel you to can take part in this "Winter Blues" Challenge.

This card has stolen my heart. I adore the image and you have colored it magnificently. The overall color scheme of the blues and white are fantastic for winter...and looking at this card you can even feel cooler. The papers are fabulous....I see the peaking of a snowflake on the far left on the paper b ut otherwise it makes me feel like she's looking at the sky. The diecuts are outstanding...so fine and clean lines. Beautiful card and accenting around the image with that little touch of blue is perfect. Hugs, Gail

Hi Shirley: This is an adorable card; your die cut is just so beautiful. I love white die's like this. Such a fun image and your coloring is beautiful, however Shirley I am so sorry that your card will not qualify for the prize over at our challenge at Ike's World Challenge due to needing to use one of Ike's images, including using the absolutely adorable freebie Ike is offering you to use this week. It isn't too late if you would still like to enter?? In the meantime, your card was really nice to see. Thanks for your creative work nonetheless. Best, Samara, DT Ikes World Challenge
