The latest challenge from Double Trouble includes the following three elements:
- Peek-a-Boo, I See You
- Use Twine or any Type of ribbon, string, cord, or Tape on your project
- Use the sketch from Try Stampin' - Or Not - On Tuesday and enter your project in their challenge
The Design Team had created some awesome projects, but I was particularly inspired by Donna Scholz's side-fold card. It's been a while since I created a card with this type of side fold and it's perfect to go with this sketch!
I'm currently working on items for my Christmas-themed junk journals so I picked out some Crafters Companion "The Snowman" printed card blanks plus some Kanban snowman toppers. The card blanks are 5" x 7" and are printed on the front and back, so I picked out two of the cards, and was able to make two of the side-fold cards sized 5" x 3.5" and one sized 7" x 5".
For the two smaller designs I used two different dies to create the windows for the snowmen to peek through. I used sentiments from the same Kanban collection, then added gemstones and baker's twine to one card and buttons and a fluffy yarn to the other.
I'm entering this project in the following challenges:
- Double Trouble - Challenge # 97b Peek-a-Boo, I See You
- Try Stampin on Tuesday - Challenge #533
- Dragonfly Dreams Challenge - November Challenge - Christmas / Winter
- Alphabet Challenge Blog - P is for Patterned Paper
- Crazy Hazlenut's Christmas Challenge - Challenge #268

Jane, I'm so happy my DT card was an inspiration for your adorable cards! Love the snowman peeking through! I especially like the shine you created by using silver for your card base and scalloped opening trim!
