Phoenix Inspirations

Thursday night was workshop night and me and the girls made 'Spotlight Cards' - this is where you take a stamped image in black ink and then spotlight an area in colour Growing Green is an excellent set to use as there are large areas suitable for colouring in. To build my picture I used post-it-note to mask off areas so that I could make a bigger picture and give a 3D effect. Here is a close up of the spotlit area Stampin' Write markers were used for the colouring in Lucky Limeade and Blushing Bride - I used matching card stock for matting and layering. Of course as this was a workshop you will find a step by step tutorial here  on my Craft Club Blog. See you later - Jacqueline xx

I made another poppy card today using my stamp. The technique I used is called the 'Spotlight' technique and all the details can be found over on the Make My Monday  challenge blog. Here is the card There are still a few days left to take part in the Challenge and there are details of the prize too. Bye for now - Jacqueline xx.
