"3-2-1 Recipe - "Inky Pinkies"

Thing 1: Trouble Maker

says, "Tomorrow is Body Painting Day! Have you seen some of the creative body painting… full of color, design and creativity? This is the day we don’t worry about getting ink on our pinkies and smudges on our projects.

Simply head on over to your space... let’s get inky and stir up some trouble in Double Trouble's Kitchen to create a project using all the ingredients from our 3-2-1 Recipe below." For inky techniques you may want to check out KatiePertiet on Instagram for ideas and inspiration that may fit the challenge."

You can stop here...

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, "Trouble Maker, my inky pinkies already have plenty of color for your 3-2-1 recipe, but it still needs a special touch. How about shine, shimmer or metallics? My optional twist is to include something like foil, splatter, metallic ink or metallic embossing powder."

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

THING 2: Double Dare

says, "Click on my clipart to the left to see the sneak peek of our Sketch from our sister challenge, Try a Sketch On Tuesday. I dare you to combine this sketch with our Double Trouble 3-2-1 recipe 'Inky Pinkies'. You will be awarded TWO additional chances to our random drawing if you do.

"Please note TSOT starts on July 8th, so this sneak peek gives you the day prior to create; but remember... to prevent backlinking, your project should not be posted, published, or entered before July 8th, in Try a Sketch On Tuesday #674 HERE."
