Guest Designer @ Double Trouble #194

 




Today I get to be a guest designer at...

Double Trouble // #194 ...A Thing 1, Thing 2, and Thing 3 challenge!!  Thing 1 wants us to follow a "Summer Fun Fold" recipe...3 colors (red, white & blue), 2 shapes (stars & circles), and 1 fun fold (a gate way fold & a sentiment flap)...CHECK!!  One of my "fun fold" elements is actually a sentiment flap...with a second sentiment on the inside.  Thing 2 wants us to use the sketch from Try A Sketch On Tuesday #673...CHECK!!  Thing 3 wants us to make a card that has fireworks.  My nephew has a birthday on July 4 and I always like to make him cards with fireworks or at least a red, white, and blue theme...perfect for this challenge...Happy Birthday, Tucker!!  

Try A Sketch On Tuesday // #TSOT673 ...A sketch challenge!!  This sketch is perfect for showcasing fireworks...I love the trio of bursting fireworks...or circles.



Two additional challenges inspired today's card...

Addicted to Stamps & More // #ATS&M495 ...A theme challenge!!  The theme for this current challenge is: die cuts and/or stencils.  I used flower dies and cut off the stems and leaves to create these firework bursts...don't you love it when you can creatively get another use out of your tools?!?

Papercraft Challenges // #PC119 ...A theme challenge!!  SUMMER VIBES is the theme for this current challenge!!  How about a 4th of July themed birthday card??  YES!!!  That works perfectly!!

  5. Deb, how super clever to use buttons as the centers of your fireworks! And the "partial die cut" edge is so perfect for this card!! Thank you for being our Double Trouble Guest Designer this month!!! -Donna
