Challenge #338 Week 2 - A Double Trouble Collaboration

Hey everyone !  Welcome to our second week with the collaboration that we are doing with the Double Trouble Paper Crafting blog!  We are partnering with Double Trouble to bring you a double dose of inspiration!







How it works is that you are going to do our challenge, and pair it up with the challenges that double trouble has on their blog!  The more aspects of the challenge you do, the more chances you get to win their prize!



Last week Team A had some great inspiration for you, this week Team B is here to inspire!  For our part of the challenge we are using this mood board!





I'm trying to finish my December (Not-So) Daily from 2017.
This challenge was perfect motivation to get another page done!
This layout is a combo of:
Mood Board, Sweet Treat, and Bling!
It's also a mix of super old and brand new scrappy items.
(6x8 sized page)


Gail

My combination includes the mood board and bling (glitter and gems).



Heather R

Loved the colors and theme of the mood board and opted to go with Double Trouble's Thing 3 on my layout and used glitter letters and lots of rhinestones :)


Lori

For my card, I chose to use all 3 challenges - Thing 1's a sweet treat for the holidays - a yummy cup of cocoa, Thing 2's challenge to use our mood board - I was inspired by the colors and the drinks, and Thing 3's sprinkles on top - I used some gold glitter paper.



I used to mood board to get my inspiration.  I loved the colors, the warm drinks pictured and the festive feel.


Amanda

I used the mood board, the sweet treats theme and some glittery paper on my card!

Challenge #338 -Week 1 a Double Trouble Collaboration

Hey everyone!  We have something super special going on for the next two weeks!

We are pairing up with Double Trouble Paper Crafting for a 2 week challenge!  This challenge will go from November 19th until December 2nd.

Here's a bit about our friends Double Trouble!

Welcome to Double Trouble - We're two retired ladies bringing you a new challenge blog where we hope you find fun and inspiration! We're not affiliated with any companies and welcome all participants. Our challenge will include Thing 1-Trouble Maker the Basic Challenge, Thing 2-Double Dare being a surprise element in which you may or may not decide to participate and Thing 3-Twisted Sister, will appear with an optional twist to the Challenge.






When you enter our challenge this week, be sure to run over to the Double Trouble Challenge blog and see what their co-coordinating challenges are!  The more aspects of the challenge you do, the more entries you will receive to win their prize!

This is our part for the challenge, we have a fun mood board to draw your inspiration from! There are lots here, pine, snowflakes, cocoa, some lovely colors, candy canes, Christmas trees and so much more!


 

The DT "A" group is going to get you started!

Remember to head on over to the Double Trouble Blog and use our image as well as their challenge ideas to create your projects!  Link up to both!  This challenge is going to run for 2 weeks and you can enter as often as you like, as long as you are creating new entries each time. 


Inspired by Thing 2's GLITTER aspect, along with our Moodboard I decided to dig deep in the old stash and use up some of this "Sugar and Spice" glitter paper I had to make a Chirstmas Cookie recipe book.  More pix on blog.


Chris
I chose to do Things 1 - making a sweet treat.  There is nothing better than cocoa in my favorite winter mug on a cold day.

Stephanie
I chose to do the Thing 1 challenge of creating a project of a sweet treat along with our Use Your Stuff mood board.  One of the traditions in our family is to make a gingerbread house each Christmas.  I thought that pics of my youngest putting together her sugary masterpiece would be perfect for this challenge.

Tina
I chose to use all the challenges: Thing 1's challenge to make a sweet treat for the holidays, Thing 2's challenge to use our mood board and Thing 3's challenge of adding sprinkles too :)


.

Tammy 
I chose to use all the challenges for this!  Thing 1s challenge of a sweet treat is my sweet holiday drink with the yummy candy cane!  Of course, I have Thing 2s challenge of the mood board which is also the UYS challenge for these next two weeks and then Thing 3s challenge of adding sprinkles is in my glitter paper and stickles!

Challenge #337 - Stars

A new week, a new challenge! 
This week is all about STARS! 
Use a star or stars in some way on your project!

For mine I used a variety of hoarded stars I had to embellish this layout of my
son and I from his first Valentine's Day - 8 stars in total!



Check out what the DT came up with!

Gail

My new favourite Halloween decoration.



Doreen

A photo of our Mini Pig, Hamlet, sleeping.
This layout was very difficult to take a good photo of because of
the shiny gold stars... If you want to see just how shiny and beautiful
that BG paper is, visit my blog at: Doreena's Place

Tina

Stars for an embellishment for this fun layout while were waiting for the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame my husband took these photos of the bricks for the sidewalk

Heather R

It's probably no surprise that I have done another Disney layout...with pics of the main star himself!  There are stars scattered throughout the patterned papers as well as some larger ones I used for embellishment.


Lori

I have used star patterned paper and die cut and punched stars on my card:
