Bookworm Fairy by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps

Hello friends!  It's hard to believe that it's already mid March.  We've been getting quite a bit of snow lately.  I am not of fan of snow anymore, nor cold weather.  But, we have to take what Mother Nature doles out, right?

This week's theme on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog is 

ADD A TAG

One of my most favourite pastimes is reading.  Hence, I decided to use the lovely Bookworm Fairy for my DT card.  Clearly, she is reading outdoors, and so I drew an outdoor scene for her.



I coloured her with Copic markers, and then I added clear Wink of Stella to her wings.  I used that wonderful sentiment by Neil Gaiman because it truly captures the essence of reading.

Remember to pop over to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog to see more fabulous creations by the other Design Team members.  While there, why not join in the fun?  As always, there are some amazing prizes to be won. 

Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you soon.  Have a happy day.  Hugs, Lori xx

Did You Ask for a Fairy? by The Paper Shelter Digital Stamps

Hello friends!  I have some wonderful news to share with you today.  I am joining The Paper Shelter Design Team (Team A)!  This is my very first post.  I am so excited!


The theme for this week is "A Bookmark".  Reading is one of my most favourite pastimes.  I used the darling "Did You Ask for a Fairy?" image.


I coloured this gorgeous image with Copic markers and Polychromos pencils. I plan on sending this bookmark to a very special person who has been immensely supportive towards me during some recent dark times.  

Thank you for stopping by.  I hope to see you again.  In the interim, I wish you a lovely day.  Hugs, Lori xx
