Today is an exciting day for me! It's my first day posting for The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog. The Paper Shelter has a new challenge that starts every Wednesday. The challenge has an easy to accomplish theme. Prizes are very generous, and even more amazing if you use a Paper Shelter image. So, check out the awesome Paper Shelter store, and color up an image, or use the pre-colored option and create a card for this week's theme -- Birthday! I'm on team B, so will be posting every other week, but I'm super excited about this adventure!
Birthdays! They should include friends, family, favorite foods, and in my opinion, music! So, with that in mind, I colored up the most adorable The Saxophonist image. The amazing thing about The Paper Shelter products is that they come with a black & white version (used here), a pre-colored version, one matching paper, and one composition. That's a lot of bang for your buck!
I colored The Saxophonist with Copic markers. I bet you can guess what tune he's playing on his saxophone, can't you? After all, this is a birthday card!
I used nesting dies and a banner die by Crafter's Companion on this card. The 'Happy Birthday' stamp is also from Crafter's Companion. The musical notes are dies from Spellbinders.
The background paper on this card is from We Are 3 Digital Shop. It is one of the papers in the Tones of Gray set.
I hope you can join The Paper Shelter Challenge this week for our Birthday themed challenge. I'd love to see what you create, and we have incredible prizes you could win -- like this The Saxophonist image!
