Happy Monday!
I'm back! How was your weekend? I was busy demonstrating the new Trimcraft Christmas products yesterday which was very enjoyable and in fact I have another couple of months of demos coming up.
I'm up on the Tubby Craft blog with a tutorial on the spotlight technique today. This technique is used to emphasise particular areas of a card and I've shown two different ways this can be done using the Wishes with Magnolia stamp set.
To begin, I took the stamp set and positioned the stamps individually before stamping with my stamp platform. I then used a couple of circular dies and die cut areas from the image I created.
I am drawn to colour pencils at the moment so I used my Chameleon pencils to colour in the images within the circles.
For my second card, I decided to stamp using a different composition of the stamps and use only one die. This time I wanted the focus to be on the flowers around the spotlight so I coloured in the images around the die cut circle.
I've a jammed packed week ahead so I must get on and I hope you have a good week!
See you again soon!
