Welcome to our Technique Blog Hop! We're SO glad you're here!
spotLIGHTing is our featured technique and we can't wait to see what
you've created ~ so please share your link with us below!
For my Spotlight card(s) I wanted to go out of the box and think of some different ways to 'spotlight'.
Here are the 4 cards I came up with ... hope you enjoy!
Are you wondering if your eyes are deceiving you?! That IS Tropical Smoothies Cardstock that I stamped the base image on! It's layered onto Boysenberry Smoothies and my spotlight image is stamped on our Caboodles Cardstock ... kind of an unexpected palette right?! Trust me ... I didn't plan it! LOL! I'm trying VERY hard to go outside my box!
After I colored the image with my Copic markers I melted Bees Wax on top!

The next card I created was a little sassy I thought!

I love, love all the samples. I love that you did a little bit different then the traditional spotlight cards. I think the colored cardstock is a great way to highlight this technique.

LOVE the cards and the variety of color and styles. The ribbon treatments are fabulous. Love the brayer technique too (and Sophie's perfected autograph...:) I need one of those!

I love both the sassy girl cards, especially the pink and black, but the ruffles on the blue and purple card certainly set it apart. Great spotlighting examples, and yes, "out of the box". Great job, Mischelle!

Love the ideas. My favorite card is the Sassy looking one. Pink, white and black. It looks like your spot lighted it.
