This weeks PaperShelter Challenge

Wendsday again and it's time for another challenge over at the PaperShelter. I think we might have given you a little too hard challenge last week with our red creations. This week however is a really nice and simple one.
Scrap it!

Use your left over pieces of DP and CS and make a card from that. Sure you don't have to use scraps to create your base but the rest, left overs please. :) If you are anything like me, you have a big bin filled with left overs that very seldom get used. It's time for that now. Can't wait to see what you come up with. Remember to use a PaperShelter image to have a shot in the price draw. You know you can win $15 vocher to spent on the wonderful images in the store. There is some sweet looking Easter images added to the store just last week.

For my card I have used the super cool dude "Cockatoo is watching you". I am so in love with these amazing birdies. They are just perfect for a fun, cute male birthday card. Just great and so fun to colour. I never knew I was a bird person. LoL. My little dude is coloured with promarkers in lots of brow, orange and yellow shades. He looks very sharp in his colours, but that is just my terrible photo editing. He is just a tiny bit les shard IRL. ;)

My DP are from Bearly Mine from a few different collections I think... It was a while since these was printed...So you see, left overs and no clue from what set. I have used a little bunch of dew drops for embellishments and a sketch that kind of also is a left over from a challenge I had planed to enter. I just can't remember which one. I think I need a rest. LoL

Please do join us over at the challenges at The PaperShelter this week. We really want to see what you can come up with. So this being my second entry for today, if intrested the For Fun Challenge is fond below this one...

Love n hugs for you all,
Marie
