Little Paper Shop is Closing it's doors...

This is a very very sad sad day for me, as I love the stamps I have gotten from this company! But, as most of you already know Little Paper Shop will be closing it's doors for good...so our loss is your gain...here is a message from our owner Julia:

"Hi Everyone,

LAST CHANCE to order. We are closing the store TODAY!!!! Everything in the store is 40%. We are sold out of some sets and have limited stock in others. Because of this we are only
accepting orders by e-mail. When you place your order we will take
another 10% off your entire purchase calcu late shipping (Flat rate $2 to Canada, $2.95 for US orders and $10 for international) and send you a PayPal invoice. Once your invoice is paid your stamps will ship. Visit us at www.littlepapershop.com and e-mail me at at sales@littlepapershop.com to place your order."

So head on over and get some awesome deals on some awesome stamps! I will miss working with them and everyone else on the team!

XOXOXO,

Silvia

LPSC74...a sketch by Allison

Todays Little Paper Shop Blog sketch is brought to you by Allison Fillo from Stampin' When I Can...it's a nice sketch, I had a little bit of difficulty trying to get it to come together, but in the end I am pretty satisfied with the results.

I simply stamped my image directly on a piece of DP as per the sketch and then I colored the pole with a black marker and the roof with a red marker...tahhh dahhh all done! Super simple, super cute!

Howdy ho my friends! It's time for another super fun color challenge by Little Paper Shop...I love color challenges! Todays colors (as you might of guessed from my tittle) are Melon Manbo, Bermuda Bay and an optional Summer Sun...I opted to go with a summer sun box of candles :)

This little cake mix was actually a present for my sons 1st grade teacher, as part of her end of the school year gift...her birthday is in August and I though it would be really cute to give her this since we wont be seeing her on her special day!

I love how it turned out! I have seen many packagings like this, but in the end I ended up creating my own with my own measurements. I love the little apron card to match, it has a little pocket for it on the other side of the cake box! I love that it already includes candles and a jar of Hundreads of Thousand (that's how they say Sprinkles in Australia!)

Supplies:

Stamps: Lucy Baking by Little Paper Shop

Ink: Stazon Black

Paper: Tempting turquoise, cameo coral, whisper white

Accessories: water color pencils, blender pens, lace trim, brads,

Little Paper Shop June pre-view #1

Lucy's back! She's cookin' somehting up for you too! But my project is showing you that this set is extremely versatile...not just for your baking needs! Little Paper Shop is proud to introduce the super cute and adorable {Baking Lucy}! She will be released on Tuesday June 15th, but in the mean time we would love to share some inspiration with you!



We went on a trip to Balos the other day and collected a bunch of sea shells so when I got home I made a little container to hold them...it's really a pasta sauce jar (reduce, reuse, recycle!) added some fabric, ribbon and a tag and voila...finished project!


I paper pieced Lucy's dress and then added a shell to her hand...I used three different sets for this tiny tag! {Baking Lucy}, {Beach Jena} and the {Beauty of Nature}.

Now be sure to stop by the Little Paper Shop blog and see what the rest of the DT members have come up with!

Happy Stampin'
