WELCOME to Challenge #179  - Let the Troubles Begin!
This Challenge runs from
Monday, November 4th thru Sunday, November 17th
"LOTSA DELICIOUS LAYERS"

THING 1:  Trouble Maker
says, "Are you considering a special treat for a family dinner but running short on a theme? Well, National Nacho Day on November 6th could be the solution. This "official" Nacho Day will come and go but it's never too late to enjoy the event with a crowd-pleasing platter of Nachos Supreme. There are many ways to serve those nacho chips using delicious layers.  

"Let's carry this idea from the dinner table to the craft room. Our requirement is to create a project with lotsa layers... or at least three... delicious layers. Your card base does not count as a layer but cardstock, patterned paper, doilies, foil, die cuts, you name it... can be layered onto your card base and does not need to resemble nachos."  

You can stop here 
OR
play along with Twisted Sister's optional twist below to earn another chance in our random drawing.  

THING 3:  Twisted Sister  
says: "After enjoying those layers of deliciousness, a Pumpkin Latte was just what I needed. First to the kitchen... and then to my craft room with my Pumpkin Latte  to complete my project.  

"Inspiration Station is partnering with us.  Their Prompt #67 is in sync with our optional twist. How did it inspire you?  Emotions, Colors, Images, Seasons, Travels, Holidays, Adventures, Memories. Your interpretation of the inspiration photo is your own... let your Creativity Flow."

This is an OPTIONAL TWIST but you will be awarded an additional chance in Double Trouble's random drawing. 

Deja-Brew!  Don't Miss Out!
It's time for our yearly participation (November 1-8) at the 2024 Fall/Winter Coffee Lover's Blog Hop (a non-seasonal coffee theme).  It's BEAN one of our favorite Blog Hops and if you've BEAN there before, this Blog Hop is ESPRESSO-ly meant for you. 

So, if your project has included a coffee theme you too can participate HERE at the 2024 Fall/Winter Coffee Lover's Blog Hop for projects posted from November 4-8 and be eligible for a second random drawing.    

Another PERK?  If you have included "Red + Green" on a Christmas coffee  theme card, you can also enter the Coffee Lover's challenge at "Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge #35 'Red + Green'" and be included in the random drawing for coffee theme. 

THING 2:  Double Dare
says, "If you have met our requirement of 'Lotsa Layers' Link your project to The Inspiration Station 'Prompt #67' HERE to qualify for another chance in our random drawing. This challenge also requires you to include a brief statement within your post as to how their Inspiration Prompt #67 influenced your project." 

And/Or 
If you have met our requirement of 'Lotsa Layers' and your project has included a 'coffee theme' Link your project to the 2024 Fall/Winter Coffee Lover's Blog Hop and/or Caffeinated Christ Card Challenge "Red + Green" you will be included in the second random drawing where the winner will be announced at the end of the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop.
