SNSDC89 -- It's All White

Happy Friday!!  Welcome to another challenge at the Sweet 'n Sassy Digi Challenge Blog.  It's obvious that an Anything Goes challenge is popular.  We had a record number of participants last week.  Thanks so much to all who participated.  Our DT was doing their best to get around to comment on everyone.  I know there were some "technical difficulties" with the linky tools and other things so please forgive us if we missed commenting on your card.

This week's challenge may make you put on your creative thinking cap.  This week, no patterned paper or colored cardstock.  All your papers need to be white....at least to begin with.  You may ink them, color them, emboss them, etc.,  but they need to be white in their original state.  As you'll see from the design team samples below, some papers are all white, some lightly inked,  some heavily inked and some embossed and colored with a copic marker.  Your images and embellishments may have all the color you want in them. 

Please remember to use digital images ONLY for the challenge. 

Please keep things wholesome & family friendly - this is a G-rated blog (we reserve the right to remove projects that do not fit this theme).  We've had to delete several entries in the past few weeks and this always makes us sad.

You don't have to use SNS digi images to play along but we sure do love when you do!

Please share a link to your creation (not just to your blog) using the Linky feature at the end of this post.  If the link feature is down, please add a link with your comments.

When uploading to online galleries, please use the keyword SNSDC89.

For EVERY card you enter into our challenges throughout January, you will get one entry to be eligible for winning 3 digis of your choice from the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store.

Now for some inspiration from our Design Team

THANK YOU!!!

to all those who applied for the Design Team

We'll be looking through the entries and making our decision soon. 

Every week, we spotlight one participant who uses SNSS digi images for their card or project.  We strongly think those of you who love to use our digital images should be recognized a little more.

Here is our Spotlight from last week's challenge (SNSDC88) - Anything Goes

Ivonne paper pieced Opal Owl and used one of the Owl Sentiments 2 Set on this adorable card.

Now it's YOUR turn.  Make a project using only white papers and link it up below.  We can't wait to see what you come up with!

Sometimes as we say goodbye to some people, we get to say hello to others.  We are excited to welcome 2 new DT members!!!

Amy Wright from On the Wright Path and Lori Finch from So Many Projects Such Little Time will be joining our Digi Design Team and will start joining our challenges next week. We are excited to have both of these talented ladies join us.  Be on the look-out for their projects and be sure to visit their blogs and give them a warm welcome.
