Anything Goes at Monday Greetings-OUTLAWZ group---Lacy Sunshine is the Sponsor!

Today's entry at Monday Greetings at Outlawz is the end of my Guest Designer Spot and I'm so thankful that they asked me!  It has been a great chance to participate in their great website Group and use terriffic digital images from all their great sponsors.  Make sure that you keep coming back to participate in their weekly challenges-you won't be disappointed!
This week their sponsor is Lacy Sunshine Stamps and the theme is Anything Goes!  Who doesn't like that?!  I have a personal connection to this wonderful group run by Heather Valentin and just love her big eyed characters.  This week I'm using Reggie Let's BBQ and think it's perfect for the Holiday coming up!  Using some patriotic paper, I colored him up with Copics and used a new Gel pen called a Glaze pen on the steak and the colored part of his eyes.  This sure beats the heck out of Diamond Glaze and flows like a dream.  I made a fishtail banner out of starred paper, added a computer HAPPY sentiment and then added a glossy, thick chipboard #4.  In the inside, I used the backside of the design paper and used a Stamp'in up sentiment.  Hope you like?  Be sure to check out this Great Group at Outlawz and get your entry in so you can be eligible for the Prizes! 

I'm OVER THE EDGE at Squigglefly this week-Great Challenge!

This week's Squigglefly challenge is called "Over the Edge."  Something on your card must extend over the edge of your card.  That could include your image, and embellishment, or even some lace.  Check out all the wonderful examples below.  We'd love for you to use a Squigglefly image, to be prize eligible it's required, but everyone is welcome to play along.
I used this adorable image called Hungry Dog by James Horvath .  This reminds me so much of OUR dogs waiting around last week when we had a cook-out for my husband's birthday!  He is so cute!  There are a lot of new artists at the Squigglefly shop and James is one with a lot of cute images.  I've extended the card by placing the Grill off the top corner and by making some "smoke vapors" coming off the hot coals that I'm sure are in the grill!  Come on over and play along with Holley's Hobbists as they show you their creations.  Have fun!
