Vintage Tea Cups by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps

Greetings, dear friends!  It's time for The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog's new challenge (#603).  The theme this week is:

THREE TIMES ANYTHING

(three of the same embellishments, etc)

I love tea cups, and I have some truly gorgeous tea cups and saucers on display in my china closet and also on some of my shelves.  With that in mind, I just had to select a lovely image by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps called Vintage Tea Cups.  Here is my Design Team card.

I used my trusty Copic markers to colour this lovely image.  I applied clear Wink of Stella (Zig) to the wings of the butterfly.  It's hard to see here but the wings have a pretty shimmer IRL.  The flowers are handmade and the centers are by EK Success.

If you'd like to see some more fabulous inspiration by the other Design Team members, see here.  And, while there, how about joining the challenge?  There are some beautiful images to be won.

There is also a group on Facebook called The Paper Shelter Fan Group which has more inspiration.  

That's all from me today.  Take care, and have a happy day.  Hugs, Lori xx

Resources and Tools Used

Hot Coffee Mouse by Sweet November Stamps

Hi friends!  I made this card last month with this adorable digital image by Sweet November Stamps called Hot Coffee Mouse.  It was a freebie for a while but is no longer a freebie.  However, you can still find it here.   

 I coloured this cute image with Copic markers.  The sentiment is computer generated, and the coffee border is from PNG Tree.  

That's all from me today.  Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon.  I wish you a happy week.  Hugs, Lori xx

There's a Fairy in My Tea! by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps

Hello dear friends, and welcome to my Design Team post for The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog's new challenge.  The theme this week is one of my favourites:

YOUR FAVOURITE COLOUR COMBO

It's no secret that I love all shades of purple and pink.  Having said that, here is my DT card using the sweet There's a Fairy in My Tea!" by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps.

I coloured this adorable image with my trusty Copic markers.  I added a light coating of clear Wink of Stella to her wings, but it's hard to see on this photo.

There is also a Facebook group called Friends Who Like The Paper Shelter.  

Remember to stop by The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog to see some lovely inspiration by the other DT members.  While there, why not join in the fun?  There are always some fabulous prizes to be won.  

That's all from me today.  Thank you for visiting.  Have a wonderful day.  Lori xx

Coffee Break II by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps

Hi friends!  It's that time again.  Time for a new challenge on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog (#569).  This week, the theme is:

CLEAN & SIMPLE 

I rarely make clean & simple cards because I find it a bit difficult.  For this challenge, I chose the cute Coffee Break II image by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps.  I am a big fan of coffee, and I drink two big mugs every day.  Here is my DT card: 

I coloured the image with Copic markers.  The coffee cup is an image that I found on etsy.  The sentiments are computer generated.

There is more inspiration by the other Design Team members on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog.  Be sure to check it out.  You will not be disappointed.   And, time permitting, why not join our challenge?  There are always some awesome images to be won.

Thanks so much for visiting.  I wish you a happy day.  Lori xx

Well, that's all from me today.  Thank you for stopping by.  Hugs, Lori xx

Panda in a Mug by Sasayaki Glitter Digital Stamps

 Hi dear friends!  Happy Saturday.  There is a 2021 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop going on now.  It ends on Friday, November 19.  I love coffee and I drink two big mugs every morning.

 I made this card using the adorable "Panda in a Cup" image by Sasayaki Glitter but, unfortunately, their etsy shop has no items listed.  It is an old image so perhaps that is why.

The image is coloured with Copic markers.  The Coffee Love Frame is an SVG file which I found in the Silhouette Design Store.  The image iscut and matted using Spellbinders "Standard Circles Large" dies.   I made the pinwheel bow and the flowers are from I Am Roses.

Thank you for stopping by.  I wish you a happy weekend.  Hugs, Lori xx
