Winner & Top 3 of February

Good afternoon and welcome to the 2 Sisters Challenge Blog.  Last month we had 243 entries.  Not bad for the first challenge of the year after a reorganization of the blog.  I personally loved seeing each and every one of the entries.  There are so many very talented people out there.  Again we would like to say thank you to our sponsor from last month, A Random Fan.  We would also like to thank all of those who entered for a chance to win the sponsor prize.

Now down to business...

The winner of A Random Fan's sponsor prize picked by Random.org is...

Good morning! We had a great first challenge of 2014 with over 200 entries and still with 5 hours left to enter at the time that I set this post up..  We've changed a few things about 2 Sisters Challenges please take note so that we don't have to disqualify your entries. That is never any fun to do :( ....

Brrr (Penguin) was her first main character and her other quirky images followed not long after. We hope you enjoy the endearing images available in the store and add Sandy's images to your digital stamp collections.
