WELCOME to Challenge #2 - We hope you had fun with our first Challenge - we're guessing you must have because you're back again

THING 1  Trouble Maker challenges you to Not Use Patterned / Design Papers. Pull out your embossing folders, coloring techniques, stamps and get creative.

THING 3  Twisted Sister
challenges you to use at least one die cut in your project.  She promises it will give your project just a bit more character.  

Don't have a die...no problem...you can still play along with our basic challenge (or make a trip to the craft store) - your husband called and said it was OK  :)  

If you have taken Twisted Sister up on her optional twist it gives you an opportunity to submit your project to Thing 2 and you will also get an extra chance to win the Double Trouble Random Draw prize.  OR, you can choose to run with Thing 1 challenge only ... your choice!  

THING 2 Double Dare
dares you to link up your creation to the Three Amigos Bloghop Challenge #15, which is open 'til the end of the month.  Since they are also using dies it's like killing two birds with one stone - and that's what getting crafty is all about.  

Three Amigos has no limits to the number of entries and the more entries the better your chances for winning their random-draw prize at the end of the month.  All products are acceptable from any manual and/or electronic die cutter.
