Blog hoping time


Hi and welcome to my little corner of the yearly celebrations over at the Paper Shelter. It is time to hop! We are celebrating our two year anniversary and want to share it with you! So if you came from  Lucy's blog , one of our guest designers, then you're heading in the right direction - if not then you'll want to head on back to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog to start again, as you'll not want to miss out on this one! Our Design Teams have worked very hard and are showcasing the gorgeous images available from The Paper Shelter Website and each blog on the hop is offering one lucky commenter a digi of their choice as well as the main prize, details of which are on the Paper Shelter Challenge blog.

So the theme of this hop is "two of a kind", so if you take part in our challenge that will run for two weeks, we want to see two of something. In my card I have two of a few things. But the main two is my two clowns. I have had such trouble getting this image coloured in a good way and don't know for how many times I have tried before, but now suddenly it worked out very well. I love my clowns! And as it is a celebration hop we need cake! So I have used that image too with the funky cake. Love that one too. :) I also have two small roses, and two bigger ones etc. 


All of the images is coloured with my Letraset family and the designer papers are from Magnolia, Sweden. So is the die I have made the leafes with. A couple of brads holds the cake in place. I didn't want to put tons of flowers behind the clowns as it felt too heavy. Anyway, I hope you like this little creation of mine. 


As I m the last in the long row of crafters on this hop, you now have the Paper Shelter challenge blog left and maybe you want to leave some love there. You don't have to do the blog hop to enter our challenge, just to let you know, even if we would love it if you did.  Don't forget to leave me a comment for a chance of winning your choice of one of the fab digis available in store. This years images from Veronica and Pedro has really been amazing so you will be spoiled for wonderful choices. 

Thanks to all of you that follows me each and every week on my crafting adventures. That can take it that I don't can come and vistit you all every time you post, that keep leaving me some love over and over again. I always do my best to come and visit but the last year has been horrible with tons of pain and operations and doctors and ....  

And a even bigger thank you to all my teamies that always makes the most amazing creations. You are amazing crafters and always do you best. Without you the Paper Shelter wouldn't be what it is today! And of course a very BIG thank you  to Veronica and Pedro that owns the Paper Shelter. They always  makes sure we have plenty of new images to work with and let us show of their stunning work. And I think the biggest thanks of them all goes to Shirley, the leader of the A team and an amazing friend and teamie to me on two teams. Lots of love hun! A BIG thank you to all of you from me.

Love n hugs
Marie

Very, very gorgeous card Marie. You've coloured them beautifully hun. I really do hope that the coming year will be, at the very least, nowhere near as painful and life will ease for you sweetie. Don't worry about not being able to comment as much as you feel you should, I know I feel guilty at times that I can't leave a comment for everyone who leaves one on my post - it's forgivable and not a problem, the crafting world understands. Keep warm and well my friend xx
