Scrap-Friendzy's Blog Hop #5!!!

Welcome to Scrap-Friendzy's BLOG HOP #5!!! I am so excited to have you join our Birthday Celebration!!


If you've just popped in and you've missed the other stops on the hop, go HERE to start from the beginning!!


You have until the end of October to complete all of the BLOG HOP Challenges for Friendz Pointz, but only until October 15th to leave a comment on all of the BLOG HOP STOPS to get your name in the bucket for the BLOG HOP Prize Drawing!!!


There have been some amazing birthday challenges so far on our hop. And here is what I've come up with for you:


I don't know about you, but every birthday I have makes me feel SOOOOOOOO OLD!!!LOL!!


So I'm calling my Challenge SEW OLD!!


Your challenge is to create a page that includes:


*SEWING-this can be any type of stitching on your page- machine, hand, or faux
*OLD- to represent this, there must be something tattered, torn or distressed in some way on your page


Here is my example page:


As you can see, I did lots of tattering and distressing with both my HS paper distresser and Dark Brown Fluid Chalk ink. I did all of my stitching with my sewing machine.

This challenge is worth 25 Friendz Pointz!! Simply complete it and upload it into our Gallery at Scrap-Friendzy!!
Check back on the SF BLOG tomorrow evening for BLOG HOP #6!!
