A Gaming B-day

   My grandson loves his video games, so when I saw this digi at The Paper Shelter I had to buy it for his b-day card.  It is hard to believe that he will be 9 soon!  Since this is a new digi, I'm going to use it to enter the Alcohol Marker Challenge at Outlawz -- the topic of which is "Something New."

Christmas Exhaustion

  There is a good 4 inches of snow on the ground and it is still coming down.  I have to admit that it looks like a winter wonderland outside.  If only I didn't have to shovel!
   After Christmas, I always spend a few dollars on my crafting -- supplies and new stamps and digis.  This year, I found a place with wonderful digi images that I have never tried before.  Where have I been?  The Paper Shelter images come with a PNG, a JPEG outline image, a colored image in each of the same, and a JPEG background -- and they are all sooo cute!
    Here's my first effort coloring an image from The Paper Shelter:
