WELCOME to Challenge #217 - Let the Troubles Begin!
Challenge runs from Monday, May 25th thru Sunday, June 7th
We welcome you to join us in commemorating our 8th Anniversary. Our Challenge is special to the "Things and Sneetches" who serve on Double Trouble's Design Team. Inspired by the imagination and humor of the late Dr. Seuss, we adopted our names and images from his writings, hoping to encourage paper crafters to use their talents to cheerfully create.
THING 1: Trouble Maker
says, "National Brown Bag-It Day and Double Trouble's 8th Anniversary are both celebrated on May 25th. We have appreciated your participation in our challenges over the past eight years, so we are having our third annual Celebratory Raffle event to show our appreciation. But first, let me finish my bagged lunch, and then we will begin the raffle.
"It's time to pull out the brown paper bag with Raffle tickets and give the bag a shake. Then it's your turn to pick a ticket and create a project based on its theme. Each project may be submitted to only one Raffle Category; however, you can have up to 4 Entries for each Color Raffle Ticket
1. Anniversary or Wedding (Yellow Ticket)
2. Father's Day or Masculine (Blue Ticket)
3. Birthday (Pink Ticket)
4. Graduation (Green Ticket)
You can stop here...
Or
play along with Thing 3's optional twist to use Kraft or Kraft-like elements and/or consider Thing 2's optional dare to use TSOT's Sketch Challenge to earn additional chances in our random drawing.

says, "I am celebrating National Brown Bag-It Day with Trouble Maker and have decided to use my brown paper bag for one of the Celebratory Raffle choices.
"My optional twist is to use Kraft paper, Kraft-colored cardstock, a brown paper bag, or any product made from Kraft-like paper in your project. Kraft can be used in any of these categories and is a perfect accompaniment to many combinations of colors and/or patterns."
Optional Twist: If you have included Kraft or Kraft-like paper in your project, you will earn another chance in our random drawing.

says, "AND DON'T FORGET... Our Sister Challenge, Try A Sketch on Tuesday #696, joins us in celebrating our Double Trouble 8th Anniversary. Click on my clipart to the left to see the sneak peek of their sketch. Combine this sketch with our Double Trouble 'Celebratory Event Raffle' and you will be awarded TWO additional chances in our random drawing.
"Please note TSOTstarts on May 26th, 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 May 26th in Try a Sketch On Tuesday HERE."

Special Notes: If you use the TSOT sketch, include TSOT's name next to the DTC link in your post. You are now eligible for any extra chances in our random drawing. TSOT has a great sketch that you could use in any of the Raffle Categories. Wouldn't it be cool to see your cards using the same TSOT Sketch especially for each Raffle Ticket?
