5 for 5 Easter: Day 5 and a giveaway!

20 Mar

This is my first post of the day.  If you’re looking for the 2015 Crafty Friendship Blog Hop please click here!

Welcome back to our last day of the 5 for 5 Easter Blog Hop!  Each day our five designers will post an Easter project based on that day’s theme.  Today’s theme is CAS (clean and simple)!  Some of us are offering prizes (including me!), so make sure to hop to each designer and leave comments!

Here are the links for the other designers!  Giveaway info is at the bottom of my post!

  • Donna Bowman
  • Rachel Kleinman
  • Lynn Kopas
  • Kris Lancaster
  • Jessica Frost-Ballas – that’s me!

I’ve had a lot of fun working with these designers this week and I’ve really appreciated all your sweet comments!  Make sure and check back on Monday when I announce the giveaway winner!

And here’s my final card:

5 for 5 Easter Blog Hop

I am not always able to easily do CAS cards as I tend to like to add and add more to a card but I was determined to not go overboard this time!  I started off by repeat stamping the tulips from the Lawn Fawn Happy Easter set with my M.I.S.T.I. and coloring them with copic markers.  On another piece of cardstock I stamped the tulip from the Lawn Fawn Eggstra Special Easter set, colored it with copic markers, and fussy cut it.  After it was cut out I went over the edges with a black copic marker and then covered the whole tulip with glossy accents.  I adhered the red tulip with a little foam tape and then stamped the sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black ink and adhered the panel to an A2 top-folding card. Ha ha, and then I put down the sequins and embellishments and stepped away… 😉

GIVEAWAY:

At the end of the hop I will be selecting one random commenter to win a fun spring-themed package full of fun stamping goodies!  Every comment will earn you a chance to win so make sure and stop by everyday!  This giveaway is open to US and international commenters!

Thanks so much for visiting and enjoy the hop!! :)

Oh and just a hint…you might want to stop by later today for the Crafty Friendship Blog Hop!  We’ve got some amazing cards to share, some fabulous sponsors, and tons of prizes!! 😉

    What a super cute CAS card! I would not have thought to stamp a row of small tulips and then add one big one but this is awesome!

    Awesome CAS card! Love the tulips! I am so ready for spring! Not very spring-y here with 4 feet of snow on the ground!
