Your new 3-2-1 recipe here at Double Trouble is as follows:
3 – Doodle style images – hand drawn and/or stamped,
2- layers – card base can be included
1- sentiment. Thing 3 from Twisted Sister is to use an opt. fun pun and Thing 2 is to use the TSOT sketch #707 and to enter your card there as well. Please note the backlinking rule.
For my card I chose to hand draw and hand write everything even though I’m not someone who generally does either well. A fellow stamper and DT based in the U.K. recently made a card with this style of candle, although I’m pretty sure she used a stamp. I basically copied the main candle from her card and then added the snowman copied from a digital image. The pun sentiment was found online and seemed to work for the snowman so I added it around the images. My images are the candle, snowman and star. I used a CAUK die to create a layer and then added the hand drawn layer in behind it. These were then added to a card base giving me 3 layers.
There are times when creating by hand rather than stamps and dies actually works out and I am finding my effort rather cute; instead of awful.
Snow (so) now it’s your turn to create and we look forward to seeing your creations in the gallery soon. Above all have fun. Thanks for joining me today, you and your time are appreciated.


Love your hand drawing of the cute snowman and the squiggly lights and star around his head. Interesting paper with the scalloped edge. You should free hand again sometime.

I love it! I love the candle idea. It was a hard one to draw our own image. Thanks for having me as Crazy Cousin this month.

Johanna, what a great job on hand-doodling. That’s the fun thing about doodling is you don’t have to be an artist to make such an adorable card, love how you pulled the candle and snowman together… and great fun pun.
