Good Times Blog Hop - Cardz TV Stamps


Happy Saturday everyone!  Welcome to the Cardz TV Stamps Design Teams Good Times Blog Hop!  If you are here from the amazingly talented Ginger's blog, then you are in the right place.  Today we are showcasing a FABULOUS new stamp set that Mary created to celebrate birthdays called "Good Times".  Here is what I came up with:


Here is the front of my card.  The card is 4x9, which fits a legal size envelope (I think).  I thought it would be a great size for all my partying animals.  The cuts are mostly from Create a Critter.  The birthday hats and the sun are from Doodlecharms and the fence is a series of welded fences from Everyday Paper Dolls.  When I first saw this sentiment, this idea leaped onto my mind.  My husband took one look at it and said "Where is the cow" - I told him that the other animals were partying until the cows came home...  He thought I was nuts!  So I told him to open the card, and this is what he saw inside:



Cute, isn't it?? The card stock is all from Recollections.  The patterned paper is a bit of a mish mash - some old 6x12 Cricut paper pads (my name is Michelle and I am a paper addict...) some K and Co paper and stuff from my scrap box.  I did all the doodling with my Sakura Jelly Roll pens.  I stamped both the sentiments using my favorite Versa Fine ink.  I popped up a few of the animals and the fence to give the whole thing some dimension.  The crowning touch on my cards - the sentiments from Cardz TV Stamps "Good Times set:


I am the final stop, in case you got lost, here is the line up:
