If you've arrived here from Sammy Jean's Blog, then you're heading in the right direction!  If not, then you'll want to pop back to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog to start again, because you don't want to miss out on this one.  Both Design Teams are participating, showcasing the gorgeous images available from The Paper Shelter, and each blog on the hop is offering one lucky commenter a digi of their choice, as well as the main prize, details of which are on The Paper Shelter Challenge Blog.



From here, you will need to hop on over to Anet's blog.  Don't forget to leave your comment for an opportunity to win your choice of one of the fabulous digis available in store!
