Anything Goes!

The theme this week at Addicted to Stamps and More is Anything Goes!  That is scary for me because I don't do well starting from scratch, so I used the challenges from Create with Connie and Mary, Fab Friday and Black Tie Friday for my design team card. 

Combining three challenges into one card seems like it would be pretty easy but it was actually kind of hard to make sure everything was just right!  I lucked out though and just as I was working on my card the UPS man showed up with my brand new supplies for my This and That journals, including this amazing Epic Day DSP that coordinates perfectly with the challenge colors! 

The DSP is very distressed, so I distressed it even more by sponging the edges with Crumb Cake ink after I cut it up. I love the notebook looking piece that I stamped my flower on. I wish we could get a whole pack of just that sheet!  I will definitely be buying more packs of this DSP!  My Pool Party Seam-Binding Ribbon looked too clean so I also dirtied it up with some Crumb Cake ink before ruffling it up.  The button is Daffodil Delight, but it coordinates nicely with the Summer Starfruit. I couldn't decide where to put the sentiment so I added the little tags so it would not distract too much from the focal image.
