WELCOME to Challenge #198 - Let the Troubles Begin!
This Challenge runs from
Monday, Aug 18th thru Sunday, Aug 31st
"3-2-1 Recipe - "Mix It Up" 


Thing 1:  Trouble Maker
says, "Do you remember way back years ago when we didn't mix plaids, flowers, stripes, checks, and polka dots? Not true today so...Let's Mix It Up! Look through your stash to find at least two different patterns or designs to combine... it's your choice. 

"Let's celebrate and stir up some trouble in Double Trouble's Kitchen. Mix it up and create a project using all the ingredients from our 3-2-1 Recipe below."

Specific information available by clicking on each ingredient. 
     3  Layers - Card Base Does Not Count
     2  Patterned Papers 
     1  Sentiment  

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 and use 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, "I'm spending August in Arizona with my sister. If you have ever spent time in Arizona in August, you know it is the hottest month of the year. You definitely need some cooling element, and why not a fan?  Let's be cool and take this fan-tastic opportunity to cool off, and my optional twist is to create a fan-fold card."  

Here are two tutorials in two different sizes for creating Fan Fold cards: 
                                                      
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 #677.  My optional dare is to combine this sketch with our Double Trouble 3-2-1 recipe, 'Mix It Up'.  If you do, you will be awarded TWO additional chances in our random drawing.  

"Please note TSOT starts Tuesday, August 19th, 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 Aug 19th, in Try a Sketch On Tuesday."  

Alternate Challenge: We also have an Alternate Challenge.  If you have created the Fun Fold using our DTC 3-2-1 Recipe "Mix It Up" and TSOT sketch #677, you can enter your Fun Fold at Creative Creases #106 "Anything Goes Fun Fold".  

Special Notes: If you use the TSOT sketch and/or the alternate, Creative Creases #106, please include the Challenge name(s) next to the DTC link in your post so you are eligible for the additional chances in our random drawing.
