Hello Everyone!  I hope everyone is enjoying this gorgeous weather and the long weekend (here in the States). I want to personally THANK all the Veterans out there for giving me and my family the Freedom and the life we have today.  Without them it wouldn't be possible.  These people put their lives on the line for my Freedom, how can you ever Thank them enough?? So if there are any who are reading this THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts from everyone here at the Sisterhood.

I enjoyed all the adorable baby projects.  I am hoping to be making some baby projects shortly (not for me lol) so they really came in handy.

Thank you all for playing along with us!! Don't forget to tune in tomorrow for another great challenge here at the Sisterhood.

All About Babies....

Hello everyone! Lisa B. here to announce the new challenge.  For this challenge we are asking you to base it around the sweetest blessings here on Earth - Babies!  Babies can bring a smile to your face when you are down in the dumps, they make you laugh, they make you cry and sometimes even want to pull your hair out..lol!  Such a large range of emotions but they really do bring us so much joy.  So let us put our Creative Thinking Hats on and see what we can come up with!  Make any project as long as it is based on a baby/infant.

And what is even better you ask?? This challenge is sponsored by a wonderful stamp company called CRAFTIN DESERT DIVAS. 

They have some adorable baby themed stamps that were just released a couple of weeks ago.  I personally will be working with the stamps to showcase how great they are.  What I loved about it was the fact that there were over 30 stamps in one set!  Below I have included a picture of the set that I will be using.

One lucky winner of the BABY challenge will win a stamp set of their choice!! So make sure you link up to our challenge below to be in the running for this great prize.  Also if you can stop by their Facebook page and leave them some love and thanks for sponsoring our challenge!  

Happy Crafting everyone! Can't wait to see what you all create.  I love getting so much inspiration from you all! 

Also I am proud to introduce our May Step-Sisters that will be joining us this month, Karen McAlpine and Lou Sims.  Thank you both for crafting along with us and helping us to inspire so many!

White On White Winners

I don't know about you guys, but I was literally giddy by each and every project submitted in our White On White challenge!

The elegance of a white card, regardless of the number of layers, is timeless!  And add layer panels of embossed texture, white embellishments and the beauty of these cards just blew me away.  Yup, definitely LOVED this challenge.  Now to the winners.

Top Sister Award 

goes to:

Min Hobbyverden

and Top 3 Sisters are:

Annamaritta

Ajaschas Bastelecke 

Gem

Congratulations Ladies!  Don't forget to grab your blog badge from the sidebar!

In actuality, we think each and every card was a winner!  Like I always say, "you can't go wrong with a white on white card.".   Thanks so much for playing along with us!  Check back tomorrow for another fun new challenge.

White on White

Hello everyone, Micki here as your host for our newest challenge!  You all know how much I love white space, especially when creating cards.  Whenever I'm stuck in a rut or can't seem to get the designer papers to look right, regardless of the color combo, creating a clean and simple card with lots of white space is always a sure winner.  White on white is always classic, always elegant and always makes me feel better :-).  And after you see what the girls came up with, you are bound to agree!

So this challenge is all about White on White! 

Your project must be WHITE.  As you will see with my project, I did use a gray ink to stamp my sentiment, which is perfectly alright.  After all, would be really hard to see white ink on white, right?  I actually used several different shades of white paint to create my mixed media background which I used to create my card.  
But first it is my pleasure to introduce you to our April Step Sisters:

APRIL STEP SISTERS:

Jennifer  - Just Coffee Please & Stamps & Ribbon & Paper

Deborah Adams - A Creative Life

Absolutely gorgeous cards girls!  A big welcome from the Sistah's!

Animals

 Hello crafters and welcome back to another fun challenge 
here at The Sisterhood!

 Terri here, excited to introduce you to today's new challenge. 

We are asking everyone to use an ANIMAL as the focus of your project. I love animals, so this was the perfect challenge for me to host. I did have a hard time deciding what animal to use. But, after gathering a few punches and a couple dies, I decided to make a punch art monkey for a treat bag topper. 

Terri

Need more inspiration?  

Then check out the wonderful creations my Sistahs 

and Step Sistahs have to share!
