The Paper Shelter
Prize: $15 Gift Certificate
The Paper Shelter is one of our favorite shops. Whenever we are looking for something, we always seem to find a fit at The Paper Shelter. The designs are unique and so adorable! You can find anything from a whimsical fairy to a biker chick! All the images start out hand drawn. From there they take those digital so we can all use them to create. We love that when you purchase a design from The Paper Shelter, you not only get the line drawn image to color, but you also get a fully digital colored image and backgrounds as well. You just need to go browse around! You will fall in love with this shop just as we have! Thank you so much for sponsoring us for January!
