The Paper Shelter ~ Christmas Break Challenge

   Hello friends! Welcome to our 2023 Christmas Break Challenge at the The Paper Shelter


Although this is our last challenge for the year, we do have lots of inspiration for you as both Team A and Team B are participating in this challenge.

   Our theme for this challenge is
~ Anything Goes ~

With it being so close to Christmas and me being up late wrapping gifts while listening to Christmas music, I realised that I was short on tags, so this was the perfect way to showcase this cute little elf in the Christmas Stocking


I used a Silhouette file for the tags.  I uploaded the background that comes in this image set and print and cut the tags.  Then I printed additional elf in the stocking images and used foam squares to adhere them to the tag.  This added beautiful dimension to each tag. I printed the Christmas Stocking images on photo paper. It prints beautifully crisp and bright!


I finished it off by matting it onto red cardstock and adding some twine and a tiny ponsettia.


I also made another slightly different version.  I matted this one on to green cardstock and added twine and a red bow made from organza ribbon.


I ended up making 12 of each.  They were so easy to put together and look really pretty on the gifts.  I forgot to mention that I stamped "To:" and "From:" on the back of each tag to make it easier to address each tag to the different persons.

Our Christmas Break Challenge runs for 4 weeks, and although we are taking a break, there is still a chance to win a prize.  The Paper Shelter offers a $30 gift certifcate for one lucky winner.  In order to get this prize, you must use a product from The Paper Shelter.  However, if you have not used a product from The Paper Shelter, you still stand a chance of winning 3 digis of your choice. 


Team A will be kicking off the New Year when we get back on the 17th of January 2024, so  I will be back sharing a project for our "All Things New" challenge.  Until then take care, stay safe and have a very Merry Christmas! 🎄

Crafty hugs,
