DTC Challenge #201 3-2-1 Recipe "SomeThing, AnyThing, EveryThing" with TSOT #680

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble #201 3-2-1 Recipe "SomeThing, AnyThing, EveryThing" and combining it with our Sister Challenge for inspiration, Try a Sketch on Tuesday #680) which starts on Sep 30th. This card will not be entered in TSOT challenge due to the backlinking rule but used as an example of combining the two challenges and show how easy it is to participant in both challenges for additional chances at the random draw. This challenge also allows you to use an alternate challenge and chose the Color Dare Challenge #671 that looked like candy corn or colors for a Halloween card.  



Chose to do my wrap around shapes using one yellow polka dot, and one orange polka dot patterned paper needed for the Must Use Both Colors in the Color Dare graphic. For my +1 color I chose a gnone, stamped, fussy-cut and colored orange, yellow and purple... my alternate challenge was completed. 

Now I needed to determine my 3-2-1 recipe and still stay within the guidelines of the Color Dare and TSOT sketch. 

My 3-2-1 Recipe "SomeThing, AnyThing, EveryThing Recipe
  3 - Patterned Papers 
  2 - Colors 
  1 - Stamped Image 

Since my colors and stamped image were completed I chose a black and white background with spider webs to complete my third patterned paper... recipe completed. 

To complete my TSOT sketch I embellished with four stamped spiders on the web patterned paper, added the wrapped around shape with 3D thin foam tape and added a black border before attaching to card base. Finished inside with strip of spider web pattern paper and stamped more spiders along r-h border. 

Please hop on over and join us at Double Trouble and have fun creating your own Recipe SomeThing, AnyThing, EveryThing and play along with our optional twist and dare while earning additional chances to our random draw.

What a cute Halloween card, Sue! That little gnome as the center feature is adorable. I love how he has a spider dangling from the tip of the hat. Although if that was me, I wouldn't be so calm lol! Cute inspo for the challenge! :)
