Challenge #111 ~ Favorite Stamps

This week our challenge is without a sponsor however this does not mean that we are without prizes.  At the end of this challenge we will choose 2 winners who will each have the opportunity to be Guest Designers here at the 2 Sisters Challenge during the months of November and December.

The theme for the challenge this week is to USE YOUR FAVORITE STAMPS.  You can make any type of card or project that you like as long as it contains a stamped image (either rubber or digi).

Also this is the last week for our optional extras of USE GLITTER.  All you have to do to qualify for the monthly draw for the prize package from The Crafting Boutique is to use glitter on your cards/projects and place a # after your name on your entry.

Our DT has worked hard this week providing some inspiration for you.  Here is what we have come up with...

Challenge #108 ~ Fall

Good morning and welcome back!!  We are about to begin our 108th challenge here at the 2 Sisters Challenge Blog.  I will be back after the weekend to announce the winner and top 3 from challenge #107.

This week we are being sponsored by two wonderful sponsors...

  Digi Doodle Shop is the results of a mother and daughter’s love for the arts and crafts. It was started a little over 3 years ago with a little more than 100 stamps, and has since then grown to almost 500 stamps. Joy (the mother of this team) designs realistic images, while Judy (aka/daughter) loves the “fun side of life”, and create images with a cartoon flair. Having these two complimenting styles have enabled Digi Doodle Shop to offer a wide variety of stamps.
It is a real honor and pleasure to sponsor this challenge, and we look forward to seeing all the amazing creations. We thank the design team for their incredible creations, and wish all the participants the very best of luck in this challenge.

Thank you so much for having us, and again the very best of luck to all of you.
Sincerely,
Judy and Joy

Sadly, the Digi Doodle Shop is closing so this will be their last time sponsoring us.  They will be missed.




Our theme this week is a very easy one (or at least I think so).  For this week's theme we have chosen FALL so what we would like to see are all of your wonderful creations that FALL (no pun intended) in to this category.  Halloween, Thanksgiving, Fall Birthdays... the list is endless.  Also remember that we have the optional extra of USE GLITTER during the whole month of September for a chance to win the monthly draw for a special prize package from my shop, The Crafting Boutique.  To qualify for the draw you must 1. USE GLITTER on your creation and 2. Put a # beside your name.  

Here is some inspiration from the DT...
