Congratulations! (DTC #203)


Welcome to Stitches and Smudges! My card was created for Double Trouble's Challenge #203. This biweekly challenge is open through noon on Sunday, November 9, 2025. As is customary, below is the 3-2-1 Recipe designed for this challenge, called "Round and Round" in observance of "Look for Circles Day," which occurs on Sunday, November 2nd.

Trouble Maker has made herself dizzy looking round and round for circles after being told about this observance. It's supposed to be a family fun day celebrated outside, but we convinced her to come inside, calm down, and look for circles in her stash.

Let's get around to Thing 1's requirement by creating a project using all the ingredients from our 3-2-1 Recipe below.

3-2-1 Recipe "Round and Round" 
Servings - Unlimited Portions of Fun

AT LEAST
3 Circles
There are three die-cut circles.

2 Images
The two images are ephemera of a Tern and the fussy-cut Turret shell.

1 Ribbon, Twine or Cord, etc.
Silk cording was added behind the ephemera.
 
Twisted Sister said she was in a spin looking for circles, and she wanted to see at least one bird on the card. This is optional, but if you include a bird, you will earn an extra chance in our random drawing.
Optional: The ephemera includes a photo of a Tern.



As for Double Dare's optional dare, she has offered the sketch above in Try a Sketch on Tuesday #682. Be sure to review the guidelines at the Double Trouble #203 Blog
Optional: I did not use this sketch.

Please note that TSOT begins Tuesday, Oct 28th, so this sneak peek gives you the day before to create; but remember... to prevent backlinking, your project should not be posted, published, or entered before Oct 28thin Try a Sketch On Tuesday HERE."  

The Design Team has posted their cards on the Double Trouble #203 Blog to offer you ideas and inspiration for joining the challenge.
