Spotlight Technique

We have a new challenge starting today for the next two weeks over 

at Back to Basics and Beyond - Challenge #6

Spotlight Technique.

Please pop over to the blog, we are new and welcome

newbies as we do established crafters. We can all learn

something, or be inspired by others. The rules, links for

tutorials on how to create the technique and the wonderful

varied inspiration by the amazing Design Team are all there.

I made a 7" card so I could stamp in opposite corners with

the gorgeous Woodware stamp Perfect Petals.

I buy my Woodware stamps from The Stampman.

The spotlight circles cut with a Spellbinders die,

which was coloured with Zig brush pens.

Matted onto black card onto the main card. 

Hope to see you popping by.

Make My Monday

Pat G has chosen for us White Embossing.

You can choose whicever technique you like, as long

as it fits the theme. The DT have some wonderful inspiration

I love monochrome cards, they can be so elegant.

I used a gloss black card for the background mat and for

the spotlight black circle.

The stamp is by Woodware - Meadow Flowers and the greeting.

Stamped onto white card with  Black Versafine. Stamped 

and heat embossed with Stampendous white detailed powder

 onto the black circle.  A piece of lace added.
