5 for 5 Easter Blog Event - Day 5

Hello and welcome to Day 5 of our new 5 for 5 Easter Blog Event!  Today’s theme is "CAS"! Some of us are offering prizes, so be sure to leave comments on each of links below and visit all the blogs for details on how to win!

I used a fun Unity Stamp on this card called Dying Eggs. I'm entering this card into the Unity Friday Friends with Flair Challenge. 

My card isn't the most CAS card I've ever made, but I really wanted to use this Unity Easter Stamp and try some multicolor heat embossing. I used green, pink and blue Stampin' Up Embossing Powders. I outlined the embossed image with a slightly bigger panel of Certainly Celery card stock also from Stampin' Up. I thought it needed just a little something else, so I sprayed the background with one spray each of a blue, green and pink spray from Lindy's Stamp Gang. To  finish it off I added a little light green twine from Stampin' Up. 

Thanks for stopping by and be sure to visit the blogs of the other awesome designers taking part in our Easter 5 for 5 Event. Thanks so much for joining us this week and I hope you're inspired to make some amazing Easter cards and crafts. We'll be doing 5 for 5 again at Halloween, so be on the lookout for the dates on my sidebar graphic sometime in September.

Lindy's Stamp Gang June Challenge

When I saw Limor Webber's new Under The Boardwalk color collection for Lindy's Stamp Gang, I loved the colors so much I just HAD to buy them all. I've never used these sprays before, but they are really easy to use and the colors are so beautiful. For this canvas I colored everything (except the buttons) on it using the Flat Fabio Sprays in the 5 colors of Under the Boardwalk. On some things I sprayed directly on the item and on others I sprayed on the craft mat and applied the color with a brush. You can check out the names of the colors and the other products they come in on the challenge page here.

Here's my canvas.
