"3-2-1 Recipe - "Tie One On Day" 


Thing 1:  Trouble Maker
says, "The day before Thanksgiving is 'Tie One On Day' where people focus on an act of kindness, typically something baked, wrapped in an apron or tea towel with a note attached. Double Trouble has never celebrated this event, so why not do it now? 

"This is a great time to make a last-minute Thanksgiving card, or maybe a Christmas card... any occasion is acceptable. All you need to do is stir up some trouble in the Double Trouble Kitchen and create a project using all the ingredients from our 3-2-1 Recipe below."

Servings - Unlimited Portions of Fun 
Specific information available by clicking on each ingredient. 
     3  Colors 
     2  Layers 
     1  Image 

Directions: You MUST include at least the required minimum of each ingredient for successful results and a chance in our random drawing... but you can enhance your project using more than the ingredients stipulated.  

You can stop here... 
OR  
play along with Thing 3's optional twist and/or consider Thing 2's optional dare and earn additional chances in our random drawing. 

THING 3:  Twisted Sister 
says, "Something baked? I'll be baking on Dec 4th for National Cookie Day... chip, chip hooray! I know Trouble Maker seems to think I'm a little crummy at times but I think I could earn some brownie points by setting aside some cookies, wrapping them in an apron, and tying them up for a gift. My optional twist is to include ribbon, string, thread or twine on your project (and to secure YOUR goodies as well).                             
If you have included my optional twist in your project, you will earn another chance in our Random Drawing. 



THING 2:  Double Dare
says, "Click on my clipart to the left for a sneak peek of the sketch from our sister challenge, Try a Sketch On Tuesday #684.  My optional dare is to combine this sketch with our Double Trouble 3-2-1 recipe, 'Tie One On Day'. If you do, you will be awarded TWO additional chances in our random drawing.  

"Please note that TSOT starts Tuesday, Nov 25th, so this sneak peek gives you the day before to create; but remember... to prevent backlinking, your project should not be posted, published, or entered before Nov 25th, in Try a Sketch On Tuesday."  

Special Notes: If you use the TSOT sketch please include the Challenge name next to the DTC link in your post so you are eligible for the additional chances in our random drawing.

WELCOME to Challenge #204 - Let the Troubles Begin!
This Challenge runs from
Monday, Nov 10th thru Sunday, Nov 23rd 
"3-2-1 Recipe - "It's a Tall Order" 


Thing 1:  Trouble Maker
says, "It will soon be T-Day (Thanksgiving or Turkey Day). In fact, “T minus 17 days" indicates that this year Thanksgiving Day falls on Thursday, November 27th and my mother’s birthday. The memory always brings a smile to my face because she wanted another day to celebrate her birthday with a cake.

My T-Day is all about creating a Tall Card (Slimline or Mini-Slimline). This would be a great time to make a Thanksgiving card, but your project doesn't have to be for Thanksgiving... any occasion is acceptable. I think it's time to gather in the Double Trouble Kitchen and make that Tall Card using all the ingredients from our 3-2-1 Recipe below.

THING 3:  Twisted Sister 
says, "T-Day is also my day!  So let's 'Turkey Dance' or maybe 'Turkey Strut' our way through the ABCs to 'Letter T, The Letter of the Day'... a perfect Time to Tackle my optional Tricky Twist.  

My Twist is to use a sentiment, color or image that starts with T.  Let's ‘T’ what Tremendous ideas you can create using the Letter T and let us know next to your link to our challenge. 

If you have included my optional twist in your project, you will earn another chance in our Random Drawing.
