Spotlight Technique


I'm back with a second post today. As I blog hopped a few days ago, I stopped by Brenda's blog, Friend's Craftin' with Friends. She posted a tutorial for a beautiful card she had made here. After checking it out, I decided I had to CASE her card. Here's her card:


 

And here's my CASE card:


I wish I could have cropped the picture better, but I wasn't able to, so I had to make it bigger here on the blog for you to see it. I used the outline stamp and sentiment from the Altenew Beautiful Day set. It's colored with Spectrum Noir markers (CT 1, 2 &4 & GB 4). The sequins are Pretty Pink Posh. The card stock is Recollections. After cutting the inside panel with a Fawn Lawn Stitched Die, I used foam tape to pop it up when I adhered it after coloring. I really love how it turned out, and give a big shout out to Brenda and to Mary (Carolina Cards by Mary H). They are two great blog buddies and wonderful card makers!!

I'm entering these challenges:  Altenew June Inspiration Challenge (Photo); Simon Says Monday Challenge - Summer Garden; Just Us Girls #347 - Trend (Spotlighting); and Addicted to Stamps #128 - Flowers.
