V's Sweet APRIL Challenge: Anything Goes! (:

Hello, my lovely readers!!!

Happy April Fool's Day!!! (;  Wow, I can't believe April is already here and you have no idea just how happy that makes me--warmer days are soon approachin'!!! (;  PLUS, I couldn't be more excited that this month's challenge over at V's Sweet Ideas is an "Anything Goes" theme!!!  Woohoo!!!  I LOVE these types of challenges!!!  I mean, who doesn't?!! :D  And to boot, the amazing Ellen Hutson is sponsoring our challenge this month!!!!!!!  Yippee!!!!!! :D  Ellen is offering the winner of this month's challenge a $15 gift certificate to her online store!!!!  I hope if anything THIS will be your inspiration to play along in the challenge!!!! (;

The super generous Vanessa sent each DT member an awesome package filled with pure YUMMINESS!!! :D  I pretty much used almost all the items in one of the kits she sent.  To say I had a BLAST playing with all those pretty goodies is an understatement!!! :D  If you end up lovin' the embellies I used on my card today and would like to purchase some or ALL of them, then be sure to check out the "supplies" list right beneath the photograph.

Supplies:

• Card base: Hero Arts (in "blush)
• Pattern paper: My Mind's Eye
• Sequins
• Ribbon: 1/2" ivory crinkled ribbon
• Twinery: Flax light brown
• Studio Calico: Die cut polaroid frames
• "SWEET" banner/tag: Dear Lizzy Neapolitan Embellishments by American Crafts
• English paper doily

I wrote in the "is" by hand with a VersaMark embossing pen and then heat set it in white.  There was no stamping, just arranging where I wanted each element to go and then adhering each piece.  Easy peasy!!! (:

And to keep on having a blast with this "Anything Goes" theme, Simon Says Stamp Challenge is also having an "Anything Goes" challenge theme this week *squeal* Therefore, I'm submitting my card in this challenge as well!!! (:

I hope I have inspired you to play along with us at V's Sweet Challenge this month--you'll have a blast!!!  Also, swing by the blog right now by clicking here so that you may check out the beauties that my teamies have come up with--eye candy for sure!!!! (;
