Challenge #215 3-2-1 Recipe "A Special Day" with TSOT #694

Here is my card for Double Trouble Thing 1's 3-2-1 Recipe "A Special Day" and my interpretation of the required ingredients, plus  enhancements. 


3 - Layers (Card Base Does Not Count) 
Patterned Paper using CTMH Sawyer bordered with Eggplant Cardstock 
and 2 Sawyer Stickers adhered with foam tape 

2 - Shapes or Images 
Floral and Rainbow Stickers  
 
1 - Stenciled and/or Dry Embossed Element
Background dry embossed with EF Paper Studios "Bubbles" 

You can stop here... OR PLAY ALONG WITH
Thing 3's Optional Twist - include a kite or other flying element
and/or 
Thing 2's Optional Dare using TSOT Sketch #694, a bi-weekly challenge starting on April 28th. We also have an Alternate Challenge at Beautiful Blossoms 'Anything Florals Goes with Optional Mood Board #40' until their closing date of May 12th and earn another chance in our random drawing.


I included Twisted Sister's optional twist using flower(s) and Double Dare's dare to use TSOT Sketch #694 and alternate at Beautiful Blossoms #40. My card will not be entered in TSOT challenge due to the backlinking rule but the sketch was my inspiration in combining the two challenges to show how easy it is to participant in both DTC and TSOT challenges.

Please hop on over and join us at Double Trouble, have fun with our 3-2-1 Recipe "Paw-some" and play along with our optional twist and dare while earning additional chances to our random draw. Check out the Design Teams inspirations, optional twists and dare and let us see what you create... hope to see you there.

Then hop on over to our sister challenge,Try a Sketch On Tuesday to check out the Design Teams inspiration, and you may want to consider using their sketch with our 3-2-1 recipe.

Dry embossing your PP sure gives this a lovely look and feel. I like the colour choices and the rainbow sticker is delightful.

I love the colors you used! The flowers look watercolored. Very pretty! You also played with a couple challenges I've never heard of. I'll have to go check them out! :)

A lovely card, Suzanne! I like the softer tones of colors with the flowers and the rainbow. You hit the mark with the TTTC row elements. Thanks for joining us this round. Cheers, Jolanda - DT
