Sewing Mends Everything!

Made this card using this kit from Diane's Daydream Designs called Life Is Sew Sweet - Sewing Machine Set.

As soon as I saw this set I knew I had to get it...being the sewer that I am.

I used the pre-colored sewing machine, which I fussy cut out and attached with 3D foam dots.  The Sewing Mends Everything is printed on blue cardstock, which I distressed the edges and sponged on gray ink...also attached to my card with 3D foam dots.   I added a little strip of a tape measure, and a couple of straight pins.  The cute background paper is also from the kit.

The challenge this week at CCEE Stampers is Song Inspiration...make a card that is related to a song title.     My song inspired card is from the 1947 movie The Perils of Pauline called The Sewing Machine.

Here are the words to the song:

THE SEWING MACHINE
From the film "The Perils Of Pauline" (1947)
(Frank Loesser)

Betty Hutton (with Joe Lilley & His Orch.) - 1947

Ohhh, the sewing machine, the sewing machine
A girl's best friend
If I didn't having my sewing machine
I'd a-come to no good end
But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle
And wheel the wheel by day
So by night I feel so weary that I never get out to play

Ohhh, the sewing machine, the sewing machine
A helping hand
If I didn't have my sewing machine
I'd drink to beat the band
But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle
As busy as a bug
So by night I feel so weary that I can hardly lift a mug

Ohhh, the sewing machine-ah, the sewing machine-ah
A friend in need
If I didn't have my sewing machine
A wicked life I'd lead
But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle
And dream about romance
So by night I feel so weary that I never get out to dance

Ohhh, the sewing machine, the sewing machine
A pal so dear
If I didn't have my sewing machine
I'd try a stage career
But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle
Till amateur night comes by
But by then I feel so weary that I haven't the strength to try
Aye-aye-aye-aye, aye-aye-aye-aye

Ohhh-ohhh, the sewing machine-ah, the sewing machine
Me pride and joy
If I didn't have me sewing machine
I'd a-married James McCoy
But a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle
And that's the end of Jim
'Cause by night I get so weary I don't even look good to him

Ohhh, have I got a boss, he looks like a hoss
His name's Joe Gurt
If he didn't own the sewing machine
I'd a kicked him where it hurts
While a bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle
He keeps his eyes on me
Why I never never have kicked still remains a mystery

Ohhh, I thread the needle and fix the shuttle
And put in the cloth and pull up the lever
And bobbin a bobbin and peddle a peddle
And wheel the wheel all day
Ohhh, the sewing machine, the sewing machine
The sewing machine, the sewing machine
Is a girl's best friend
This is the end
