WELCOME to Challenge #102  - Let the Troubles Begin! 
5th Monday - One Week Challenge  
From Monday, January 31st thru Sunday, February 6th


"SomeThing, AnyThing, EveryThing"  


THING 1: Trouble Maker
says, "It's time again to grab your bone folder and other crafty stuff and create something new. We think this is easier than folding a fitted sheet! It's time to use the stuff you have in your stash (new and/or old).

You can stop here... 
OR, you may want to include Twisted Sister's Optional Twist below "Size It Up or Size It Down" to earn additional chances at our random draw.






THING 3:  Twisted Sister
says, "Size it up or size it down! This is the perfect chance to try something besides your standard A2 (4.25" x 5.5") card. Make your card round, make it square, make it slimline, make it shaped, just don't make a standard size A2 card.  Don't keep us guessing... include in your post what size or shape you used.  

"February 4th is 'Thank Your Mailman Day' ... let's not forget to thank your mail carriers... after all, we have left them with sized up, sized down, and shaped cards to deliver. 

This is an OPTIONAL TWIST but you will be awarded an additional chance in Double Trouble's random draw if you include this twist in your project.  


THING 2:  Double Dare 
says, "I dare you to multiply the fun by linking your project with any previous partner(s) listed below. You will qualify for extra chances in our Random Draw." 

"Make sure you read their guidelines carefully and observe their dates. We don't want you to get into trouble."

This means each time you link to a previous partner with the same card, you gain an additional chance. Please identify each of them in your own blog post along with our Double Trouble link.  






Here are our Things...

WELCOME to Challenge #101 - Let the Troubles Begin! 
This Challenge runs Monday, January 17th - Sunday, January 30th 
"Mix 'Em Up w/Three Patterned Papers"  



Thing 1: Trouble Maker
says, "It's Winter and I'm just chillin' so I don't want to make things complicated. That's why I'm asking you to use three patterned papers - just "Mix 'Em Up"!  It's that simple... that's all you need. 

"IF you want to be a little ambitious and boost your creativity, our partner has this sketch that is perfect for using patterned papers. Feel free to change the orientation of the sketch... rotate the sketch or use its mirror image. IF you use this sketch you will receive a chance at our random draw."

In Summary:
1. Thing 1 Requirement: Three patterned papers MUST be used in your project.
2. Optional: It's your choice to use the TSOT sketch above.  


Thing 3: Twisted Sister
says, "January 20th is World Penguin Awareness Day! I'm also chillin', but not with Trouble Maker. I'm chillin' with the penguins. So for my optional twist, let's waddle with a clumsy swaying motion and include a "penguin  in your project."  











Thing 2: Double Trouble
says, "If you have included three patterned papers and used Try Stampin' on Tuesday's Sketch for Challenge #539,  you may link your project HERE.  And if you have used Twisted Sister's optional twist to 'include a penguin' you have also met their optional theme, Winter Wonder.

"Please note that Try Stampin' on Tuesday starts on Tuesday, November 16th. If you post your project at Double Trouble on Monday, the 15th, you are still eligible to enter your project at TSOT. We are permitted to backlink for that Monday only... so be sure to visit again on Tuesday so you can post your card to the TSOT Challenge using the link provided above."

Thing 1: Trouble Maker
says, "Today we're celebrating two special things - our 100th Challenge and Cuddle-Up Day on January 6th! There's been nothing better than cuddling up with your sweet creations for 100 challenges and we hope that you feel the same way."  

"For Cuddle-Up Day, let's think cozy and warm and  Layer Up!  You MUST use at least one die, punch, or machine cut and include at least two or more layers on your project. Bring on your card layering techniques and Layer Up."      

In Summary:  1.  Create at least two or more layers. 
                       2.  Use at least one die. 

You can stop here...

Thing 3: Twisted Sister
says, "My favorite thing to cuddle with is a good book. There are lots of other "THINGS" you can cuddle with such as sweaters, mittens, quilts, easy chairs, books, fur-babies, stuffed animals, firesides, etc. What is your favorite?"  

This is an OPTIONAL TWIST but you will be awarded an additional chance in Double Trouble's random draw if you include this twist in your project.  







Thing 2: Double Dare
says, "Bitten by the Bug 2 is a challenge that usually requires the inclusion of a cut item from a Cricut machine, however, we CUT a Die'al with them. For this challenge only, our partner is accepting the use of cut items from punches, dies, and any cutting machine, but NO fussy-cutting! Enter the Bitten by The Bug 2 Challenge for an extra chance in our usual random draw prize."
