It's time for a new cue! Whether you start thinking about a technique, an emotion or something entirely out of the box, we're curious to see where this word takes you!
Lawn Fawn is returning to sponsor us this week and is generously offering this week's winner their choice of a stamp set and 6x6 pad! Have you seen their new release yet?! Talk about impressive! Are you in need of some new spring stamps, adorable creatures, sentiments, dies, papers or inks? They've got you covered!
Did you know Lawn Fawn has their very own Flickr group where you can share your Lawn Fawn creations and join in their discussion?
Let's take a look at what the design team and this week's guest designer created for inspiration!

A light wash or sponge of color can add definition and emphasis to your focal point.
Distress inks provide a nice background in small areas of a CAS card.
Using a non-crafting item creates a CAS card.
Add a little dimension by simply popping up your main panel.

Ink blending and distress inks can be CAS when color is limited to one side.
White space does not have to be white.
