Let it Snow : Winter Card/Project Challenge

Hello friends of The Sisterhood! Welcome to 2012. We're kicking it off with a little bit of snowy fun for our challenge. Create a card or project with a winter theme! Then let us see them so we can ooh and ahh over the wintery goodness.

I'm not sure about the weather everywhere else, but here in Northern Alberta, it's actually currently snow-free. Seriously. It blows my mind. We've had weather up to 8 degrees Celcius (46 fahrenheit)...in January! Usually we're more like -20C (-4 fahrenheit). The cross country skiing is terrible (if you can even find open trails), but the motorcyclists are loving being able to continue driving. I'm sure by the end of January I'll be wishing for the early January weather ;)

Onto the creations by The Sisters....and the real inspiration for your visit - our takes on the challenge we've set out for you this week. Darlene was once again rocking the challenge and came up with three inspiring beauties for this winter challenge! Lisa was on fire with a fabulously crafty idea inspired by our own Dar =) And Micki....well her and I had similar thoughts on this cool little challenge (time for some warming mitts)!








Remember - you have until 12:00pm on Sunday, January 22nd to link your Winter card/project for our Let It Snow Challenge! We'll post the winners on Tuesday, January 24th, the day before our next challenge =)

Winners of our Black, White and One other Color....

Wow you guys really pulled out all the mojo! Everyone of the entries were inspiring. I stand by my motto that a black, white with a touch of one other color is a timeless, elegant and classic color theme as each of you proofed with your wonderful entries.

On the other hand..... it makes it sooooo hard to pick the winners. But enough stalling on my part......

Top Sister award goes to:


Gorgeous card! Love all the layers and love your coloring!
Be sure to check out Sandy's blog at The Crafty Side of Me

Now for the Top 3 in no particular order......






Wonderful job ladies!!!!! Don't forget to grab your badges (in the upper right hand column).
Thank you all for playing along with us! You guys inspire us - thank you.

You will want to check back tomorrow because it another challenge and Sistah Tanis will be our host.....until then!

Black, White and One other Color....

Welcome to the last challenge of 2011. Can you believe it's almost 2012? I know, me either!

Hi everybody, Micki here. With the hustle and bustle of the holidays, my crafting mojo has left me high and dry which, in a round about way helped me decide our challenge. I picked a favorite of mine. It's a no-fail color challenge and one I use whenever the crafting mojo has left the building.

It's the classic

Black, White and One other accent color.

This one is easy and you can't go wrong, so we hope you join us as we ring in 2012. Ringing in the New Year is exactly what I was thinking when I created my card:


Check out what the rest of the Sistah's created.... it is definitely going to inspire you. Darlene created not one but three cards, each with a different accent color. Diane created a wonderful, elegant wedding ensemble and Tanis' flower card is simply elegant :-).






We hope you've been inspired and join us in our Black, White and One other accent color challenge. It can be anything as long as the theme of the challenge is followed. Card, altered item, 3D project.....anything!

You have until Sunday, January 8th, 2012 8PM to add your project to INLINKZ below!

Please remember:
Make sure to link directly to the blog post entry, not your blog.
Your entry follows the theme (black, white & one other accent color)
Finally... we request only THREE entries per challenge PLEASE!!

We can't wait to see what you create!
