Challenge 24 ~ Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

Good morning and welcome to the 24th challenge at 2 Sisters.  First we want to say thank you to Margaret at the Hodge Podge Shop for sponsoring our last challenge. We would like to also thank everyone who played along with our sketch challenge. Stay tuned for the winner and top 3 of challenge 23.

This week our challenge is being sponsored by Sassy Studio Designs. 

Sassy Studio Designs is a fresh new company. We have been designing and selling for a year now, and we have been kindly received into the community of digi stampers and crafters. I started designing images shortly after I started stamping, reason being...I didn't hardly like anything else out there I was a young adult woman at the time I was engaged, had no kids, I wanted fun sexy images that I would enjoy using and my friends and hubby would enjoy receiving. I designed images for 2 other digi stamp companies when my wonderful hubby kept trying to get me to go out on my own. So in June 2009 thanks to the few faithful followers I had, Sassy Studio Designs was born! It has been a wonderful journey starting my own store. We have just grown so much these past months. I still try to keep with my original philosophy and reason for designing stamps, make them fun and keep them sassy...and yes sometimes even sexy!

Challenge 22 ~ Flowers

Good morning and welcome to the 22nd challenge at 2 Sisters.  First we would like to thank Pattie's Creations for sponsoring our Gettin' Girlie challenge.  Be sure to come back on Monday to see who the winner and top 3 are.

This week our challenge is FLOWERS.  We would like to see any kind of flower on your card/project. This can be in the image, store bought or handmade flowers.  It's up to you.  Just show us all the gorgeous flowers you can.  This week we are being sponsored by Judy of DIGI DOODLES SHOP.
                            

                                                             

Digi Doodle Shop actually started forming over three years ago. My mother's and my love for the arts, and my addiction to the internet, prompted us to start making digital scrapbook kits. It wasn't long into creating scrap kits for personal use that I went over to the commercial side, and not long again before I was introduced to digital stamps. Being so fascinated with how the digital stamps can be used to make beautiful creations, it didn't take Mom or me long before we realized what we wanted to do. Our hope is that the stamps we make inspire the creativity in you, and brings you much joy. We aim to please, so if you do not find something you want, we would love to hear from you. Nothing brings us more pleasure than to be able to bring someone else's vision to life.

Sincerely,


Judy

Challenge 21 ~ Gettin' Girly

Good morning and welcome to the 21st challenge here at 2 Sisters.  First we would like to thank Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps for sponsoring our last challenge.  We would also like to thank everyone who participated in our Thinking Of You Challenge to collect cards for patients in the transplant wards of Brigham & Women's Hospital in Boston MA.  I have started receiving the cards that have been sent.  On January 30 I will have a package to deliver to the volunteers at the hospital.

This week the theme of our challenge is GETTIN' GIRLY.  We would like to see you go wild with the girly things such as lace, gems, ribbon, sparkles, pearls, etc.  For this challenge we are being sponsored by Patti Gomez of Pattie's Creations.

This is what Patti has to say....

I am an Internet Technology Professional and an Artist. I always dreamed of being an artist, but I found out quickly that I needed another field to support my family so I pursued a Degree in Information Technology. I love to use Adobe Photoshop and Fireworks to enhance my work. I just recently started selling my very own digital images and I am so excited to be here sponsoring this Challenge.

I created a character called Pattieboop and her cat named Allie. I have had so much fun coming up with different images so I also created a site to sell them. You can go to my store to find out more about Pattieboop & Allie. I know you will just love them when you see them.

My store: http://www.etsy.com/shop/pattiescreations

Pattieboop is an 11 year old girl who is very opinionated. She was created by me, Pattie Gomez on September 7, 2009. Pattieboop is an average 11 year old and she loves dressing up. She is very petite in nature but stands tall because her mother always told her that “If you stand tall you will one day become someone important”. Pattieboop always remembers her mother’s words and makes sure she is noticed.
Pattieboop has a favorite pet named Allie. Allie is a slender black cat and loves playing and spending time with Pattieboop. Alllie spends most of her days napping and her nights are spent getting in to mischief…

Pattie was very kind and provided our DT with a couple of images to work.  Here is what the DT has come up with to inspire you...
