Challenge #67 ~ Holiday

Good morning and welcome back to the 2 Sisters Challenge.  This week we are being sponsored by Tracey Malnofeski of The Stamping Boutique. 

I'm Tracey Malnofski, the artist and owner of The Stamping Boutique. My team and I are very happy to sponsor Twosisterschallengeblog. My store has been oped open since September 2009. I am currently a stamp artist for UnityStampCo. and I've worked for InStyleStamps, Squigglefly, and TheDigiShack in the past. I'm a professional artist and an active member of the Artist' Guild in my community. I have quite a busy household with a husband, 3 teenagers, 5 mini-dachshunds and an Appaloosa mare. It's noisy, but I love them all. I'm truly blessed.

"The Stamping Boutique" is dedicated to quality products and original artwork. We not only provide wonderful digital images in our store, but also several lines of red rubber images. Our designers are chosen for their character and personality,as well as, their beautiful designs. We work hard to give you our very best. Thank you so much for having us as your sponsor this week.

The theme for this challenge is HOLIDAY.   This week what we would like to see is you most festive holiday projects.

Tracey was very kind and supplied our DT with some images to inspire you with.  Here is what we have come up with.

Good morning and welcome back to the 2 Sisters Challenge Blog for a new weekly challenge.  This week we are proud to be sponsored by the wonderful Pattie of...

PATTIE'S CREATIONS

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 

 

This week the theme is ANYTHING GOES.  So pretty much any new original project that you create qualifies for a chance to win the sponsor prize from Pattie's Creations.

Pattie provided our DT with a couple of images to help inspire you with this week.  Here is what we have come up with.
