Challenge #202 3-2-1 Recipe "Shades of Fall" - Gobble Til You Wobble

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble #202 using the 3-2-1 Recipe "Shades of Fall" and combining it with our Sister Challenge for inspiration, Try a Sketch on Tuesday (TSOT Sketch #681) which starts on Oct 14th. This card will not be entered in TSOT challenge due to the backlinking rule but used as an example of combining the two challenges for inspiration and to show how easy it is to participant in both challenges. 

The sketch inspired me to copycat the leaves and blended background with at least three shades of Fall colors and for texture added the 1-ingredient a dry-embossed element "crackle" folder to my blended background. 

Also decided to use a turkey image as my focal point in place of the large hexagon. Stamped turkey direct on blended background, masked and stamped a pumpkin on each side of the turkey to satisfy 2-images and Twisted Sister's optional twist.  

Stamped three more images of the turkey and adhered full turkey over the stamped image and colored. Colored and fussy-cut the body of the second image, slit open the wings and adhered body with glue and 3D thin foam tape on tip of wings. Colored and fussy-cut the head of the third image and adhered to body with glue and used 3D foam tape for head. Pumpkins to each side of turkey were colored.  

Three more pumpkins stamped/masked direct on blended background and then stamped, colored, fussy-cut two more images... one adhered direct to background and one adhered with 3D thin foam tape.  To keep with the sketch's larger hexagon I hand-drew a look-a-like pumpkin, colored, fussy-cut and adhered with 3D thin foam tape. 

When I decided on a fun pun sentiment "Gobble til you wobble" my card needed a pie... wanted a pumpkin pie but turkey said apple was fine.  Stamped pie, colored, fussy-cut and placed under the wings of the turkey with some 3D foam in the middle and glued on sides for rounding the pie.  For the open space to left of turkey I added the fun pun and randomly stamped a few itty-bitty flower stamps around the pumpkin patch.    

It sounded like a lot of work; but I really enjoy working with dimension, layering and rounding the images.  Hope you'all enjoy my festive Fall card.

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.

Color Dare #668

This is my Design Team project for Color Dare #668 which you must use both colors as shown or closest to.  My first thought was to use these colors for a blended background with a silhouette, but then leaned toward an older technique I had not used in a while, "Triple Time Stamping".  

Cut three proportional rectangle panels, stacked securing with some adhesive and used the Misti to stamp floral images using these colors in, around and across the panels. Randomly stamped small wire mesh around florals using Heather ink. Separated panels and bordered each with candy apple cardstock. and adhered each panel to match up with the floral design.  Stamped a small sentiment in the lower right-corner. 

From same stamp set another floral was stamped on the inside bottom right-hand corner along with a the wire mesh.

You Are Appreciated - Double Trouble #163 partnering with Inspiration Station

This is my second Design Team project for Double Trouble "Let's Get Krafty #163" celebrating Earth Day. Our partner for this challenge, Inspiration Station's "Prompt 60" was a photo of the World, our Earth. We thought using biodegradable, recycled materials would be a Earth Day Celebration and Thing 1's requirement was to use Kraft paper or any product made from Kraft-type paper. Twisted Sister wanted us to include blue shades because 71% of Earth is water. My inspiration was the globe and using shades of color blue.  

Using the same Color Dare Board #594 "Six Pack" that I used yesterday; but this time I used all the colors in my focal point.  And again... the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #571.  

                         

Using these colors I created an appreciation Teacher's card using Kraft-type patterned paper for the background, cut 3/4 inch banners in a galaxy-like patterned paper and layered with Sapphire cardstock.    

For the focal point... Chose a woodgrain patterned paper, layered with Sapphire cardstock and adhered to the Kraft background.  Images were stamped on white cardstock with Memento black ink, cut with Brother's Scan'n'cut and colored using Copic Sketch pens to closely match the CTMH colors. The sentiment was stamped directly in the right-hand bottom corner of woograin panel and images adhered with 3D thin foam tape for dimension.

I Like You a Waffle Lot - Double Trouble #163 "Let's Get Krafty" with Inspiration Station

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble "Let's Get Krafty" celebrating Earth Day. Our partner for this challenge, Inspiration Station's "Prompt 60" was a photo of the World, our Earth. We thought using biodegradable, recycled materials would be a Earth Day Celebration and Thing 1's requirement was to use Kraft paper or any product made from Kraft-type paper. Twisted Sister wanted us to include blue shades because 71% of Earth is water which is my inspiration for Inspiration Station's Prompt 60.  

Using the same Color Dare Board #594 "Six Pack" that I used yesterday; but this time I chose the colors Periwinkle, Sapphire (shades of Blue) and Honey Butter, along with Toffee, a Kraft-type neutral paper.  And... the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #571 was perfect for my color selection.   

                         

Using these colors I created a masculine card using Kraft-type patterned paper for the background and cut 3/4 inch banners in shades of blue.  The waffles in Kraft patterned paper against the Honey Butter Background, sounds appropriate and yummy, doesn't it?  The sentiment and image were stamped directly on the Honey Butter panel.  Three more waffles were stamped on the Kraft patterned papers, fussy cut and adhered with 3D foam tape for dimension.  

For the inside of the card I had another cute pun stamp "Thanks for pudding up with Me" which seemed fitting with the Waffle pun. A Periwinkle patterned paper was adhered along the bottom border, stamped the pudding pun with Nutmeg Ink, masked and added the waffle a yummy combination.

DTC Challenge #153B "Recipe to a Happy Harvest" - Card 2 Happy Harvest

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble Challenge #153 "Recipe to a Happy Harvest" which includes at least 3 patterned papers, 2 embellishments and 1 Fall or Harvest Item. Twisted Sister's optional twist is to consider using Try Stampin' On Tuesday Sketch #632 and add a sentiment for another chance at the random drawing.  

When making another card for this challenge, I set it aside for a future date.  I had many additional pre-cut/layered patterns from the Gnome paperpack which I was able to put together for a second card. Chose three of the patterned papers but this time chose a Cornucopia image for my Recipe.  

Colored my image with Copic Sketch brushes using a variety of colors to match the colors in the paperpack, rectangle sized with part of the image fussy-cut and then layered with pumpkin cardstock.  Sentiment was stamped below the image on the larger panel and two green dots were added in the upper r-h corner to finish my "Recipe".  

On the inside of the card added some patterned paper to the the right-hand side border.  

 

I'm not laughing now because I got two cards out of my decision to use a striped turkey in my first card (see here).

When it Rains Look for Rainbows "Pop-Up Card"

While making a Design Team card for a future Double Trouble Challenge I had one more sentiment printed and cut on a scalloped hexagon.  So one more Rainbow card in the making... using the same paperpack CTMH "Story Book" however a striped patterned rainbow paper instead, layered on a black cardstock border and then to the card base. There was sticker in the packet of a pretty row of flowers in rainbow colors which was adhered with 3D foam tape to the Scallop Hexagon die cut and adhered some grass below the flowers.  

When it rains, it pours and the flowers appear, but now we have to Look for the Rainbow... so easy, open the card... there's your rainbow and sunshine.  Pop-ups were made using Paper Smooches rainbow die and Whimsy's Up In The Clouds dies.

Hoppy St. Patrick's Day -- Double Trouble #133

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble Challenge #133 "Pinch Proof" partnering with Inspiration Station's Challenge #47 focusing on the color Green.  Did you know that wearing green on Saint Patrick's Day is supposed to make you invisible to leprechauns? They will pinch you as soon as you come upon their radar if you don't wear green! And I didn't want to get pinched.  

Twisted Sister's optional twist was to use a plaid and/or checker and I used both. Didn't have so far to go for a plaid because it was sitting on my desk... a  green plaid paper that was already adhered to a card base which I never used. Then I went to my little plastic bin labled St. Patty's Day and found small pieces of Doodlebug patterned papers and cute images and sentiments. The checkered paper matched the plaid perfectly, along with cute images and sentiments.  Layered each with Evergreen cardstock and then adhered to the plaid card base using glue and 3D foam tape.  Needed something more in the bottom corner so added gold sequins and my card was done.  

I think my thought process on what I was going to do took longer than putting this card together.  I was Hoppy with it.
