Why does my cat go to the bathroom all over the carpet?

Depends, Hon. Has your kitty always done this, or is it new behavior?
It's possible she was never properly trained. The best rmedy for this would be to borrow a large Tokyo cage, and keep her inside it for a couple weeks (with her food, water, and litter) until she's re-trained.
The first thing you need to do is take her to her vet to check for urinary tract infection. This is a very common reason why cats may "go" on the floor; it's painful for them to go, and they begin to associate the litterbox with pain.
If this isn't the case, she may not like her litter. Cats don't generally like highly perfumed litter, even though it smells nice to us.
Of course it goes without saying that her box must be kept scrupulously clean, too.
