TSOT #678 with DTC Challenge #199 3-2-1 Recipe "Sweet Surprise"

This is my Design Team project for Try a Sketch on Tuesday (TSOT) Sketch #678 and combining it with out Sister Challenge, Double Trouble #199 "3-2-1 Recipe Sweet Surprise" and using Twisted Sister's optional twist to shake it up a bit and make a Shaker Card adding some of your favorite shaker bits. 




I've had these CTMH Heart Shaker window kits which had never been used. There were no instructions so put together as best I could. I realized the window would not be embedded flush with the surface of my card because I put a backing on the heart with a snowy-like patterned paper.  

Didn't have the heart die that went with the kit so traced the heart shaker onto another 4" x 5 1/4" panel of same paper, fussy-cut and adhered to card base with foam tape and inserted the shaker window. My fussy-cut had a couple small mis-cuts so I needed to do a horizontal flip of the sketch. Stamped two images, colored using Copic Sketch brushes, and ahered to the background covering the two mis-cuts. 

Finished with a sentiment, and a few snowflake images on the inside of card.  

Please hop on over to Try a Sketch On Tuesday, check out the Design Team's inspiration for this sketch and share your creativity... hope to see you there.

You may want to hop on over to our sister challenge, Double Trouble to see if you have already met their 3-2-1 Recipe ingredients. If you have, you can enter the challenge and be eligible for random drawing chances... or maybe you just have to add an ingredient to meet the requirement. Hope to see you there. 

DTC also has another small random-draw gift if you join us in celebrating a "sweet surprise" by telling us about your favorite donut and/or filling. Add it to the comments DTC Challenge post and you will be eligible for an additional randomly drawn prize.

2024 Fall/Winter Coffee Lover's Blog Hop "Tis the Season to be Jolly"

DTC is participating with 2024 Coffee Lover's Fall/Winter Blog Hop and here is my Coffee themed card for Day 3.  The Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #601 was my inspiration for this card. Brentwood is one of my favorite coffee theme SVG files and I had several pre-printed, so I was able to do some fussy cutting and make layers for dimension (piecing) and adhering 3D thin foam tape behind each of the layers.    





Deja-Brew!  Don't Miss Out!

Have a Cup of Cheer - Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge #20

This is my card for Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge #20 "Critters" using the BYSHC Sketch #36 which was perfect for my Cute Critter image and paper selection.  



Kitty image with hot cocoa was stamped with Memento Black ink, colored using Copic Sketch Brush pens and fussy cut.  A scalloped stitched rectangle was cut and bordered with green cardstock.  Design papers and zip strips were used for all other cuts in the the sketch and bordered with green cardstock and adhered direct to card base with the one strip of green cardstrip adhered with 3D thin foam tape.  Kitty was added with 3D thin foam tape for dimension on the stitched rectangle. A speech bubble was cut, bordered with green cardstock, sentiment stamped with black ink and adhered in upper-right hand corner.  

The balance of the Zip Strip from paperpack was adhered inside card base to the bottom and right-hand borders.  



Please hop on over to Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge #20 "Critters" and check out the Design Teams inspiration and other entrants. Your entry must be a Christmas/Holiday Card using an image and/or sentiment related to Coffee, Tea or Hot Cocoa, and for August use at least one cute critter.
