CAS Easter Tilda Shaving Cream Technique & Blog Candy

Good morning everyone and yes I am back home from my short time off. Since I just got back, I was so busy doing laundry. Can't believe that I still have OMG over 300+ emails to go through. Therefore, if I haven't come to visit your blog yet, I will eventually in the next few days/weeks as I will be doing some emails catch up after work tomorrow.

I can't believe that March is ending so soon and April is coming up in just a few days. That means Easter is coming up just weeks away. Besides sharing my card today, I also put a mini blog candy for a winner to grab. Please scroll down for details. I will have more blog candy coming up, so please stay tune.

Today's card I used the one of the older Bunny Tilda image I got a while ago from Magnolia-licious. Basically, this is a card I made with the shaving cream technique. I used up all my husband's left over shaving cream and did a background with glossy paper. On the background piece, I also stamps some flower images on that glossy paper.

I am also using this card for the following challenges:
Creative Cowgirls Challenge - Spring/Easter
Just Magnolia Week #99 - Bingo (Gems, Flowers, Ribbon)
CI Paint Challenge - Flowers
Crafts and Me Challenge #27 - Anything goes
Sugar Creek Hollow Challenge - Stitching
Crafty Creations Challenge #11 - In stitches
A Spoon Full of Sugar Challenge #145 - Easter

Here is my finished card
