There's a new challenge over at Inkspirational today - #316.
It's Designers Choice and Pia has chosen:
I looked on Pinterest to find samples of spotlighting as well as YouTube.
And this is my DT card for the challenge.
I used my Misti to stamp the leaves and bloom from an older Wallpaper Art stamp set from Altenew onto two panels of white card, stamping them in the exact same place on each panel.
Then I die cut a rectangle out of the middle of one of them. I colored the images on the full panel (at least the parts that would show!) and then adhered the cut out frame panel over it. I stamped the sentiment and added enamel dots.
I had an extra frame panel (I made a few errors in stamping during my creation journey!) and adhered that on the inside of my card which just happened to perfectly frame the sentiment I had already stamped!?!
It was an afterthought that I really like the look of - adds a little more interest to the inside.
So we hope you will check out the spotlight technique and create a card yourself - we'd love to see it linked up over at Inkspirational!
You'll also find some lovely inspiration using the technique by the rest of the Design Team!
You have until May 31 to link up your card!
Also linking my card to:

that I've had for at least 8 years??!!

Such a clever and eyecatching design- perfect use of white space. Beautiful.
Not only is it a lovely and well thought out design, it’s also a very fitting onefor a sympathy occasion. I find these cards hard to do. I love how you made the inside to match the front. Beautifully done.
