Welcome! A new challenge is open at Double Trouble Challenge.
Challenge #210 is a biweekly challenge ending on Sunday, March 8, 2026. Double Trouble always uses a theme requiring the 3-2-1 Recipe, and there is a random drawing for participants. There are also options in order to qualify for additional chances in the drawing.
Trouble Maker is crazy about tortilla chips and guacamole, so she is paying tribute to her favorite snack by celebrating National Tortilla Chip Day on Tuesday, February 24, 2026. I am a fan of cold treats, so below is how I took on the required elements.
Thing 1's 3-2-1 Recipe - "Scrapper's Guacamole"
INCLUDE AT LEAST
3 Colors from Color Wheel #1
A variety of colors are included within the patterned paper. (Shades of pink, green, yellow, blue, and more.)
2 Patterned Papers
Four patterned papers were included to complete the design.
1 Dry or Heat Embossed Element
The layer of patterned papers adhered to the green cardstock mat were dry-embossed with an Arabesque design.
OPTIONS
Twisted Sister wants to see your favorite snack on your project.
Ice cream or fruity popsicles are my favorite treats. One of the patterned papers depicts cold treats.
Double Dare is offering a sketch from Try a Sketch on Tuesday Challenge #689, shown below. This biweekly challenge runs from Tuesday, February 17, through Sunday, March 1, 2026, at noon (ET).
The sketch was perfectly suited for this challenge. You will be eligible for yet another chance in the random drawing if you also use this sketch for the Double Trouble Challenge.
The Design Team is eager to see your creations, so visit the Double Trouble Blog and take in the inspirational card samples by our Design Team.

Wonderful card, great colors in those coordinating papers, and those tiny ice cream bars are so cute!
ReplyDeleteThose papers are delightful and your snack ice cream bars are cute too. Love the entire card.
ReplyDeleteFun, I had just bought some popsicles a month ago, What a fun card and reminder I have popsicles in my fridge and need to go get one.
ReplyDeleteLove the mix of colours and the banners across the main panel are perfect!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! My husband's favorite snacks match yours! I know he always loves to have a good ice cream or fruity popsicle available in the freezer :)
ReplyDeleteI love the banners and your patterned paper combination! I need to try the technique of embossing the whole panel of patterned papers, it is a great look. Such a fun card!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful card Melanie! Love all your beautiful patterned paper and how you embossed them really makes the pop more! Thanks for letting us join in the fun at Double Trouble! - Holly & Sabra
