Encouragement card Using The Paper Shelter "The Lantern"

Hello crafters.  I hope everyone is doing well today.   It has been in the 80's again this past few days in Southern CA.  I can't believe how warm it is already - in January.  January is usually our coldest month; but it happened a month earlier than normal.  

I am not sure who this card belongs to yet; but I loved this image and digi paper from The Paper Shelter and had to buy it.  Of course; with it being purple; there was no way to resist. LOL!  The image is pre-colored; so I just colored my stamped image on the inside/lower half of card.  I enjoy creating with colored images.  All their images also come in black and white; so that you can color them; as well as without the backgrounds.  I rarely use digi paper; but I love how Paper Shelter images match so perfectly with the backgrounds.  I have a hard time letting go of the gorgeous backgrounds.  They fit so perfectly together.  I usually end up feeling like I need to create using them just as they are.  One of these days I will have to color my own; but I so enjoy the colored ones.  

I created an Easel card using the image and paper from The Paper Shelter "The Lantern". I printed the image with background on CTMH White Daisy cardstock; which is the best cardstock I have ever used for making my digi images stand out with their true colors.  Be sure to check out The Paper Shelter Challenges on their blog.
