Winners & Top 3 From April & May

I want to apologize to everyone for taking so long to announce the winners and top 3's of April and May.  Things here have been so busy that I haven't had the opportunity until now.  This is one of the many reasons that we have decided to close down after this month.  I have read the comments pertaining to the closing of the 2 Sisters Challenge and I want to say thank you.  I appreciate the comments.  I wish I had the ability to keep this open because I loved doing it and seeing everyone's wonderful entries.  I will still be around going to other challenges and entering when I can.

Now to business...

Challenge #177 ~ MAKE YOUR OWN & AN ANNOUNCEMENT

Good Afternoon.  I am posting a little late today because of all of the things going on around here.  First of all I want to thank everyone who entered the challenge for a chance to win the sponsor prize from my shop (The Crafting Boutique).  Second, we have a bit of sad news.  Due to the fact that we are finding that we don't have a lot of time available to keep up with things here and that we can't seem to keep a design team we will be closing the 2 Sisters Challenge after this month.

This month we are being sponsored by two wonderful shops...

A RANDOM FAN

SCRIBBLES DESIGNS

The theme for our challenge this month is...

MAKE YOUR OWN EMBELLISHMENTS

We are asking that all of your embellishments be handmade by you.  You can use gems, pearls, etc in your embellishment but the main part of your embellishment needs to be handmade.

The sponsors for this challenge have provided us with some really cute images to inspire you with,  Here is what we have come up with...

STACY

(Scribbles Designs ~ Peek-a-boo bunny)

(I hand punched my flowers from white cardstock, embossed them with a hand embossing tool, added glitter glue to make them sparkle, and a pearl for the centers.)

 (there will be more cards coming from me in the next day or so)

 

MARY

(A Random Fan ~ I Miss You)

(To create the embellishments for my card I hand punched the flowers out of pink and light pink cardstock.  I softened the look of each flower using a stylus. This also helped make them stand up off my card a little more. I glued together 2 flowers - one of each color pink and added a pink rhinestone to the center.  I finished off the flowers by punching leaves out of green cardstock.)

Also this month when the winners of the sponsor prizes are drawn there will be one additional name drawn.  This person will receive a surprise package from The Crafting Boutique.  So, If you want a chance to receive this package if your name is drawn make sure that I have access to an email address so that I can contact you for a physical address.

Now it is your turn!  You have until 11:59pm on Monday June 30th to enter your cards and projects for a chance to win one of the two sponsor prizes.  As always if the Linky tool is missing or isn't working properly please link your entries in the comments section.
