Something old, something new ........

......... something borrowed, something blue.

That is your 'Little Extra' this week if you choose to join in the mid week fun.

This week we have a recipe challenge for the Little Extra. There's an old rhyme that tells brides what they should wear on their wedding day to be sure of good luck, it goes:

Something Old
Something New
Something Borrowed
and Something Blue


This week we'd like you to incorporate these four things into your card -

It doesn't have to be a Wedding card, despite the verse - just as long as your card features each of those things on it.

Borrowed could be borrowed from another card, some ribbon from a chocolate box, a tiny piece "borrowed" from a child's hair ribbon, even a postage stamp from an old envelope, it could also be an item or technique borrowed from a different crafty sphere...

And before you ask - whilst you're allowed to use a sewing machine to make your card - it CAN'T be your borrowed item - as that would be just TOO EASY and this is supposed to be a challenge, isn't it! hehehe


Can you believe Kathy - the meany :) - wouldn't let us use the machine as out borrowed - Booooooo - hehehehehe!!!! So I had to use some lace and ribbon borrowed from various cards and clothing and some cardboard from an old box.

This is just beautiful, there is so much detail in it, Lynne, it must have taken ages. Is it going to be for anyone we know?
