The Paper Shelter Tribute Post

Good morning everyone adn welcome to my DT post for The Paper Shelter. This is a very hard post to write today. This week and next, rather than running our usual birthday Blog Hop, the Design Team at The Paper Shelter is honouring our beautiful co-founder Veronica, who tragically left us on the 25th of September 2024.

This lovely photo is of Veronica and her son.


Veronica was a kind, supportive, beautiful soul, who alongside her co-founder Pedro, produced the images we all know and love to create with. There is a vacuum in the world today, where Veronica used to be, and we will miss her terribly.

Just looking back through all my Paper Shelter cards, there are so many different fun and gorgeous images that I have used, but I just had to use my very first image, Angel, for my tribute card. I submitted a card to the DT call with this image and from that starting my journey here ten years ago. 

I can't believe I have been on this design team for so long, but it is such a fun, caring team that these past 10 years have flown by. Veronica was definitely part of my reason for staying on the team and I will continue to honour her using the images her and Pedro created and coloured together.

And here is my card using the gorgeous Angel.
