THING 3: Twisted Sister

says, "Trouble Maker, you know how much I love mixing patterns! Since September is National Sewing Month, my machine will be incredibly busy making patchwork, quilting, and embroidery until the cows come home. 

Sew, how awesome would it be to include stitching in your paper crafting? There are countless options: hand-stitched, stamped, die-cut, embossed, patterned paper, and other faux styles such as machine-made, hand-drawn, pierced, and punched. My optional twist for this project is to include stitching, using any of these methods or one of your own. Stitch it up and show us your creativity!

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

THING 2:  Double Dare

THING 1: Trouble Maker

says, "'Christmas in July' is a fun and quirky commemoration of the traditional winter holiday... so why wait until December to create a little holiday cheer? It's the perfect time to mix sunny skies with snowy vibes and celebrate the season in the most unexpected way. It's also a great way to get ahead of your holiday stash! 

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

THING 3: Twisted Sister 

says, "Even though the July 4th weekend has passed, Trouble Maker wants to celebrate 'Christmas in July.' She will probably think this idea makes snow sense, but why not go with a 'patriotic-meets-festive' vibe? We can have snow much fun with a 'Star-Spangled Christmas.' My optional twist is to use stars and/or stripes in our 'Christmas in July' 3-2-1 recipe above."

 

Optional Twist: If you have included stars and/or stripes in your project, you will earn another chance in our Random Drawing.
