Creative Belli Challenge 104 - Old, New, Borrowed, Blue

Happy Hump Day! We are almost there...to another crazy weekend here...lol. Never a dull moment here for sure. Well, today we have a new challenge for you over at the Creative Belli Challenge Blog. This weeks challenge is called: Something Borrowed, Something Old, Something New and/or Something Blue (not necessarily a wedding card). Now...let me clarify that a little...lol. The idea here is to do one or more of those things on your card, BUT it doesn't mean it has to be a wedding card. Don't forget...we still want you to stick to the main idea behind the Belli challenge too...use at least one thing from your stash! I decided to go with the "blue" and "old" parts of the challenge.I made this little mug card. I decided to make it "BLUE" and I used some "OLD" PP, and the template I used is "OLD" too. I traced the mug template onto the light blue CS. After cutting it out, you glue down the bottom and the side of the mug. This creates a pocket at the top to slide in a hot cocoa packet, coffee single, or as I did...a tea bag. After you have glued down the pocket sides, you can decorate to your liking. I went with this adorable Cocoa Mouse image from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. I stamped it onto white CS, then paper pieced the blue polka dot paper onto that. I added some stickles to the mug too. For the sentinment, I stamped it onto white CS and punched it out with an oval punch. I punched a scallop oval with the same PP I used on the mug. I attached a piece of blue ribbon, and put the sentiment on top of that with foam tape. I decided to make a little "pull tab" for my tea bag. I wanted to make it look like the little tag that hangs from a tea bag. I punched 2 squares from the PP, and stamped the sentiment onto them. I attached them together, but placed the end of the ribbon in first. Next, I attached some ribbon adhesive to the tea bag packet, and glued my ribbon onto it.

Now it is your turn! We would love to see your version of this challenge.
