WELCOME to Challenge #126  - Let the Troubles Begin! 
This Challenge runs from 
Monday, November 21st thru Sunday, December 4th
"Scrapper's GORP" 

There are several parts to this challenge, 
but the only requirement is to play along with Thing 1's Requirement 
To Add fun... choose to use Twisted Sister's and/or Double Dare's optional twists 
and earn additional changes to our random draw.  


Thing 1:  Trouble Maker 
says, "Wow! We missed National Trail Mix Day. Trail Mix, aka GORP (a mix of certain cereals, nuts, pretzels, raisins, dried fruits, M&Ms, etc.).  Sounds yummy, but we have a yummy trail mix for Scrapper's GORP.   

"Do you remember way back years ago when we didn't mix plaids, stripes, checks, flowers, and polka dots? Not true today... this is our recipe for Scrapper's GORP.  Look through your stash for stamps, stencils, patterned papers, washi tape, etc., to find at least two or more of the ingredients in our Scrapper's GORP and include them in your project... the ingredients are your choice."

You may opt to use Try Stampin' on Tuesday's sketch to the right - or not, but this is a perfect sketch for our Scrapper's GORP and if you use this sketch you will earn two additional chances in our random draw. 

You can stop here... 
OR  
Play with Twisted Sister's optional twist below to earn another chance in our random draw. 

Thing 3:  Twisted Sister 
says, "I love mixing patterns. You'll often find me wearing a polka-dot striped shirt, floral pants, and a plaid hat.  There are so many things that I like to mix and piece together.  

"Have you ever tried the paper piecing technique? It can be a lot of fun!  Here is a YouTube tutorial that may help you with this technique MFT Tips & Tricks - Paper  Piecing.  Include an image(s) that demonstrates your paper piecing skill."

Optional Twist:  If you have included paper piecing in your project you will earn another chance in our random draw.

Thing 2:  Double Dare 
says, "If you have met Thing 1's requirement 'Scrapper's GORP', and used the TSOT sketch, with or without piecing, you are eligible to enter your project HERE at Try Stampin' on Tuesday Sketch Challenge #584 for an additional chance in our random draw.  

Special Notes:  Please note that Try Stampin' on Tuesday starts on Tuesday, Nov 22nd. If you post your project at Double Trouble on Monday, the 21st, you are still eligible to enter your project at TSOT. You 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.

WELCOME to Challenge #125 - Let the Troubles Begin! 
This Challenge runs from 
Monday, November 7th thru Sunday, November 20th
"Color Theory DTC = C3"  

There are several parts to this challenge, 
but the only requirement is to play along with Thing 1's Requirement 
To Add fun... choose to use Twisted Sister's and/or Double Dare's optional twists 
and earn additional changes to our random draw.  


Thing 1:  Trouble Maker   
says, "Even scientists enjoy color... there are rumors that Einstein developed a theory of color (but we can't find it). But guess what?  Double Trouble's Color Theory is DTC= C3 which celebrates the rich colors found on our partner's Inspiration Photo. 

"You must use shades of orange, yellow & green but you are not limited as long as these colors are predominant in your project. Neutrals are free."  

You can stop here... 
OR  
Play with Twisted Sister's optional twist below to earn another chance in our random draw. 


Thing 3:  Twisted Sister 
says, "Hey, Trouble Maker! My interest has never been in science so I am not familiar with Einstein's theory, but his photo is really cute.  

"I am so glad you decided to use our Double Trouble's Color Theory DTC=C3. These colors remind me of sunflowers we grew along our garage wall, but our yearly outings to sunflower fields were awesome. Many photos were taken with the sunflowers and as we grew it seemed the sunflowers became smaller with each outing. My optional twist is to include sunflower(s) in your project."  

Optional Twist:  If you have included sunflower(s) in your project you will earn another chance in our Random Draw. 

Thing 2:  Double Dare 
says, "If you have met Thing 1's requirement, and have been inspired by the Inspiration Photo in our partner's challenge, you are eligible to enter your project HERE  at  Inspiration Station's 'Golden Fields' Challenge #41.  In your post please include how their challenge photo may have inspired you."
