Spotlight Technique #2

 Hey there! Here's another card using the Spotlight Technique, inspired by the current Inkspirational Challenge.

I used another Stampers Anonymous stamp set. I think this is probably my fave set. from SA and I should use it more often! 

Just so you know, I've used cream cardstock, which never seems to look so good in photos, but it's lovely in real life. I edged the spotlight panel with black ink for definition. 

I used dimensional tape, which made it a bit difficult to line up. Next time I'd use liquid glue so I can move it around.

Spotlight Technique

 Hi there Crafty Friends. Here’s a card I made for inkspirational Challenge, where they have the Spotlight Technique as their theme. 

The leaves were stamped with gold ink and embossed with Distress Embossing Glaze (Antique Linen). 

The glitter shows through the glaze because it is translucent. 

The spotlight section s coloured with Karin Markers.

The stamp set is from Stampers Anonymous. 

The sentiment Di cut was embossed to match.

However, in the Northern Hemisphere they are celebrating Spring, so here is a card for all my European and Northern American friends!

I used Karin Markers to colour the images. The Embossing Folder is from a Discount Store.
