THING 1:  Trouble Maker
says, "Summer Solstice is the start of summer and the longest day of the year. The amount of daylight only gets shorter from here, but we still have time to create a long card (aka Slimline) during the next two weeks. Let's roll out those lazy, crazy, hazy days of summer as we look forward to celebrating the longest day, or any occasion, with a Slimline card using our 3-2-1 Recipe above. 

You can stop here...
OR
play along with Thing 3's Optional Twist and/or Thing 2's Optional Dare and earn additional chances in our random drawing.



THING 3:  Twisted Sister
says, "It’s time to enjoy vacations, great weather, pools, baseballs, and everything else that goes along with the season. Grab your favorite beverage and enjoy the season, because for many of us, it is all too short.

"I love fireworks! Do you know why fireworks go to school? To gain more 'POP-ularity'! Fireworks are a great way to celebrate, but you don't have to use fireworks; simply use glitter and/or sparkle in your project and show us your 'POP-ularity.'"

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 #698. My optional dare is to combine this sketch with our Double Trouble 3-2-1 recipe, 'It's Going to be a Long Day'.  If you do, you will be awarded TWO additional chances in our random drawing.

"Please note that TSOT starts Tuesday June 23rd, 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 June 23rd, in Try a Sketch On Tuesday."

When using TSOT and/or our Alternate Challenges, 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.
