WELCOME to Challenge #171 - Let the Troubles Begin!
This Challenge runs from
Friday, July 19th thru Wednesday, July 31st
"What's Your Drive-Thru Window?"


THING 1:  Trouble Maker
says, "July 24 is National Drive-Thru Day... a chosen day to pay homage to many Drive-Thru venues. This is the perfect time of year to venture out and pick up something. My favorite is an ice cream shop because a cone or dish of deliciousness appears when I get to the window.

"To play along with our challenge, create a project with a window or aperture cut of any style, shape, or size. There are a variety of window-type cards, easy and/or more complicated, and below we have provided a few tutorials for inspiration... the choice is yours." 

Four Simple Window Cards
Three Peek-a-boo Card Ideas
Let's Make Some Cute Peekaboo Cards
Aperture Cards
EASY Pop-Up Window Card

You can stop here...
OR
play along with Twisted Sister's optional twist below "Christmas in July". 


THING 3:  Twisted Sister
says, "While Trouble Maker was dashing through the Drive-Thru, I saw Frosty on the menu board. We don't want Christmas in July to slip away from us. So... if it's not 'snow' much trouble, my optional twist is to include snow, snowflakes, Frosty, and/or other snowpeople on your project.

Optional Twist: If you have included snow, snowflakes, or snowpeople in your project you will earn another chance in our random drawing. 





THING 2: Double Dare
says, "If you have met Thing 1's requirement to create a window/aperture project and have included a snow/snowpeople theme, you are eligible to enter your project HERE at Jingle Belle's 'Dashing through the Snow' Challenge and qualify for an additional chance in our DTC random drawing. 

Here is a photo of the prize at Jingle Belles.
