TSOT #690 Sketch Challenge and DTC 3-2-1 Recipe "In with the Old, Out with the New" - Happy Birthday

This is my Design Team project for Try a Sketch on Tuesday (TSOT Sketch #690) and combining it with our Sister Challenge, Double Trouble #211 "3-2-1 Recipe "In with the Old, Out with the New" and entering at our alternate challenge "Critter Crazy Challenge #108 "Anything Goes with Featured Critter".  

I wasn't so lucky to find Twisted Sister's optional twist to include a piggie; however, I did find a stamp set with some cute critters which had not yet been used and in my stash for over a year. Another oldie in my stash was a background die of rays which somewhat emulates TSOT sketch #690. So, I'm proud to create something "Old" and come out with something "New" using the DTC 3-2-1 recipe (3-Layers, 2-colors, 1-image).

Challenge #211 3-2-1 Recipe "In with the Old, Out with the New" inspiration from TSOT Sketch #690 - Happy Birthday

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble #211 3-2-1 Recipe "In with the Old, Out with the New" and combining it with our Sister Challenge for inspiration, Try a Sketch on Tuesday (TSOT Sketch #690) which starts on March 3rd. This card will not be entered in TSOT challenge due to the backlinking rule but was my inspiration of combining the two challenges to show how easy it is to participant in both challenges. 

I'm pretty sure I have lotsa OLD stuff that can come out of hiding having had been a CTMH consultant. An old patterned paper from Smitten was my pick for the TSOT sketch background and bordered with candy apple cardstock. Well, with my old stash, I came out with a unigue and new card... using the 3-2-1 Recipe 3-layers, 2-Colors and 1 Image, plus enhancements. 

And, yes, how many times have you been able to use a piggy stamp. I first went through my binder of previously stamped images and found this adorable piggie uncolored and squealing to be used. Images were colored with Copic sketch brush pens, fussy-cut, and adhered to background using 3D thin foam tape in place of the two octagons in sketch.  

A fancy edged heart die was used in place of the square panel. While cruising on internet for piggie puns I came across "You make me happier than a pig in mud"... perfect. However, didn't have a stamp so simply handprinted sentiment on heart using a black pen.

Challenge #210 3-2-1 Recipe "Scrapper's Guacamole" with TSOT #689

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble #210 3-2-1 Recipe "Scrapper's Guacamole" and combining it with our Sister Challenge for inspiration, Try a Sketch on Tuesday (TSOT Sketch #689) which starts on Feb 17th Date. This card will not be entered in TSOT challenge due to the backlinking rule but was my inspiration of combining the two challenges to show how easy it is to participant in both challenges. 

The Let's Party paperpack was perfect for the three complementary patterned papers for my party background. Each panel was adhered to card base and then dry embossed for texture. This completed the 3-2-1 recipe; but Twisted Sister wanted us to include our favorite snack.

When our family gets together for birthdays and other events on the weekend many times we have tacos and/or creamy taco dip. Using the leftovers the next day we add corn chips, cheese and guacamole for snacking and this is a favorite snack of mine. My son's birthday will be coming up soon and this will be his Shell-ebation birthday card. 

I didn't have food snack stamps so went to the internet, selected a taco with all the fillings, fussy-cut three images, using one for layering and adhered with 3D thin tape. Also, searched on internet for cute taco puns, typed sentiment and pun, printed on white paper, and bordered with candy apple cardstock.  

The focal point panel was cut using white cardstock, dry embosed, and bordered with candy apple cardstock. The tacos and sentiment were adhered to this panel and had an after-thought and fussy-cut a banner from another design paper to give the card a festive look.

Challenge TSOT #688 with DTC #209 3-2-1 Recipe "The Mail Must Go On"

This is my Design Team project for Try a Sketch on Tuesday (TSOT) Sketch #688 and combining it with out Sister Challenge, Double Trouble # 3-2-1 Recipe "The Mail Must Go On".

This stamp is one of my favorites and thought it would be perfect for TSOT's sketch. Using Memento London Fog ink I stamped image at an angle and off the edge of a 4" x 5 1/4" white cardstock which left a lot of white space for my CAS technique. A second image was stamped to fussy cut some of the flowers to adhere with 3D thin foam tape for dimension. Recipe completed 3-layers, 2-fussy cut images, and 1-CAS Technique. 

The image was colored using Copic Sketch alcohol-base brushes in a variety of pastel colors, adhered fussy-cut florals with 3D tape, the white cardstock was bordered with a good color match of the purple flowers and then adhered to cardbase. Sentiment was stamped in London Fog. 

On the inside buttom right-hand corner of the card base I stamped the same image angled at the bottom and off the edge using London Fog with no coloring.

Challenge #209 3-2-1 Recipe "The Mail Must Go On" - I Love You

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble #209 using the 3-2-1 Recipe "The Mail Must Go On" and using inspiration from our Sister Challenge, Try a Sketch on Tuesday (TSOT Sketch #688) which starts on February 3rd. My card will not be entered in TSOT challenge due to the backlinking rule but was my inspiration of combining the two challenges to show how easy it is to participant in both challenges. 

Don't be confused DTC's 3-2-1 Recipe "The Mail Must Go On" above for a CAS card. 3-Layer ingredient because it simply uses the card base as one layer, a second layer with the color background for Twisted Sister's optional twist and at least one or two die cut for a third layer, or one die and a stamped image. Make sure you look at the ingredient on the post for samples of many 3-layer CAS cards or click HERE.  

Used one of the negatives from the heart die cut in the r-h corner of the inside of the card.

DTC Challenge #208 3-2-1 Recipe "Waddle We Do Next"

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble #208 3-2-1 Recipe "Waddle We Do Next". When I saw Twisted Sister's optional twist to include a penguin, there was no question in my mind, a penguin card it would be. May be a little out of the box, but my inspiration was from our sister's challenge TSOT's sketch.

 

While looking for my CTMH penguin stamp set I came across this cute summer stamp set from Rubbernecker (aka as Brass & Bliss) which my daughter had gifted me some time ago and never used.

This stamp set needed a beach scene so I pulled out a retired stamp set from CTMH "Writing in the Sand" and stamped sea and sand on a piece of vanilla cardstock. The sea was first stamped with Peacock, moved cardstock up slightly and stamped with Sea Glass and then used Sea Glass and lightly sponged all of the sea portion. The sand portion it was stamped with Chocolate ink and then lightly sponged with the same color. Used an oval die to cut the sea/sand and adhered to a blue panel, and then to card base.  

Stamped all the images using Momento black ink, cut with my Brother ScanNCcut, colored with Copic Sketch pens, and adhered using glue and 3D thin foam tape for dimension.

Challenge TSOT #686 with DTC #207 3-2-1 Recipe "Cool, Wild and/or Crazy" - Happy Birthday

This is my Design Team project for Try a Sketch on Tuesday (TSOT) Sketch #686 and combining it with out Sister Challenge, Double Trouble # 3-2-1 Recipe "Cool, Wild and/or Crazy", (3-Colors, 2-shapes, 1-sentiment). 

I needed a birthday card... decided to use Balloons as my shapes instead of Twisted Sister optional twist of two squares. The balloons, along with the squiggly strips for the balloon strings were cut from CTMH "Fresh Paint" patterned paper. 

I traced a half circle on a piece of white cardstock and adhered each of the squiggly balloon strings around the half circle and then bordered with the same patterned paper. The balloons were placed as in sketch and adhered with 3-D thin foam tape for dimension. Stamped sentiment and bordered with same patterned paper.  

I was not pleased with the white background... it needed some color. Chose several Copic colors matching the patterned paper and dotted each color randomly on the background.  Now, how cool was that... pretty cool.  

There were a few extra balloons that I had die cut so adhered them to the inside of the card on the right-hand corner.
