  So for my anything goes project.... I made this card ....

 

My card size is 4 X 6 1/2. The cardstock I used is from bazzill and the patterned papers are from Echo Park's "This and That" collection. I cut out this cute owl using my Give a Hoot cricut cartridge and cut him out at 3 3/4". He can be found on page 55. I also added some googly eyes to him, I just love adding googly eyes to all my little animals! My owl is also on an action wobble!!!! I couldn't get a good picture of him wobbling!

I also cut out the oblong frames using my elegant edges cartridge and they are popped up on foam tape. I used a banner stamp from the "Dilly Dally" set from Making Memories to stamp my banner onto some patterned paper and cut them out. I used some lawn trimmings for the string to hold my banner and to finish off my card, I used the cutest sentiment "Owl be there for you" from Mary's CardzTV stamp set, For the Birds

Well that is all I have for you today but please stop by Cardz TV and see what my other design team sisters have created and link up your own project for a chance to win some of Mary's awesome stamps!!

Thank you for stopping by my blog today!

July's Summer Fun Blog Hop w/Just A Scrappin'~

Hello my friends! I'm sure by now we can officially say that summer is upon us and to welcome summer we, at Just A Scrappin' are celebrating with our July Summer Fun Blog Hop!

If you are just stopping by my blog today, please take the time to hop along with us and enjoy all the beautiful projects and inspiration that my DT sisters have created! There is even some blog candy along the way!! If you are already on the hop, you should have came here from Bree's blog. If you have not started the blog hop yet, be sure to start at the beginning at Just A Scrappin so you don't miss out!. To go with our Summer Fun theme I've created this card

Papers used are Bazzill and Echo Park. I cut the ice cream cone from my Doodlecharms cricut cartridge at 3". The ice cream cone can be found on page 106. I added some confetti glitter to the top of the ice cream cone and then coated it with some glossy accents.

The sentiment I used is from Mary's Fun in the Sun stamp set.

I used the sentiment "stayin cool by the pool" from the set and just inked up only "stayin cool". I cut it out using spellbinder's fancy labels 3 die. What better way to cool off in the hot summer sun then by having a cold ice cream cone right? To finish off the card I added some mint green liquid pearls and added some ribbon that I had in my ribbon stash.

Well thats it for my card today! Your next stop on the hop is Belinda's blog so be sure to visit each of my DT sisters blogs for some fun and exciting projects.

Simon Says "Sweet Wonderful You"

Happy Friday blog friends!! Have you ever glanced at your "to-do" list and said to yourself " I have all week to get this done" and then before you know it, the week has flown by and you have not accomplished much?? Well that is what happened to me this week! LOL I had so much to do and unfortunately I'm behind. But today I am playing along with Simon Says "Anything Goes" challenge. So here is my card "Sweet Wonderful You"

My card today is a 5x5 Black Bazzill card base. I wanted to try the black on black tone and I liked how this came out with just a splash of color. My patterned papers are by Echo Park's This and That collection and MME's Kraft Funday Everyday Fun collection. My sentiment "Sweet Wonderful You" is from Paper Trey Ink's Handwritten Notes stamp set. I stamped this with momento tuxedo black ink and used my EK Success punch to punch it out and layer. I used some glossy accents on my sentiment frame to give it a little bit of a shine.

The doilies are from Maya Road and all I did was add a rhinestone in the center of each for a bit more color. I used some of Lawn Fawn's Lawn Fawn trimmings Cord in gray to wrap around the patterned paper and finished the card off by adding a few black pearls to the top of the card. Well I hope you enjoyed my card for today and thank you for stopping by! Have a great weekend!!!!!
