4CCC-100 {Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue}


Have you all enjoyed your July? Can you believe it's almost over and August is right around the corner?  ACK!  Summer is the perfect time of the year for many to get married and that's the inspiration for this week's 4 Crafty Chicks' Challenge.  Lori is our hostess with the mostest and she has a recipe (of sorts) as well as a theme...she would like to see some wedding cards made with something OLD, something NEW, something BORROWED and something BLUE.  Fun, right?

For my card I used the current Sweet Sunday Sketch but this time I rotated it so it's on its side...




And here's how I used the recipe:

Something Old - I used my sewing machine for the stitching and I've had it for almost as long as I've been married...16 years.  It has seen MANY projects, sewn some clothes and quilted a couple of quilts and it's still running like new. 
Something New - Both the heart die and the DSP.
Something Borrowed - See that little, clear button on the heart?  I snipped it off of one of my old shirts...it was the extra one they sew on the inside so I figured I might as well use it....right?  ;)
Something Blue - The paper and twine both have blue in them.

Need more inspiration?  Stop by the other Chicks' blogs to see how they made this recipe work.  Enjoy the last weekend of July and I'll see you back here on Sunday for a new Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge!
