I tried the spotlight technique for my card this week:
First I stamped the MFT Floral Fantasy background stamp on Neenah Solar White cardstock. Next I die cut the center for the focal point in the sketch. I colored the die cut with Prismacolor pencils. I added the black embossed strip and then popped up the "spotlight" with black fun foam. The sentiment (Wplus9) was white heat embossed on another piece of black cardstock. I also used Wink of Stella on the colored focal point. It's pretty shimmery IRL!

ReplyDeleteWhat a unique take on the sketch, Annie! Love the spotlight technique especially with the black and white paper. It really makes your coloring pop!
ReplyDeleteClever spotlighting! I like the contrast of black with the rich central colours - really eye-catching.
ReplyDeleteAnnie this card has inspired me! I have some adult coloring books with some pages similar to this, and how clever to use the pattern both as a background and focal point. Love it!
ReplyDeleteOh Annie, I LOVE this card! The bright, vibrant coloring just pops off the black and white! This card makes me smile! I hope you are having a great week, My Friend! XX
ReplyDeleteAnnie wonderful use of the spotlight technique. Your card reminds me of those amazing coloring books that are out there. I agree with Claire, the vibrant colors just pop off the page
