Spotlight Technique with Geometric Butterfly!


Hi to all!

Today, I would like to show how I create this card with the full procedure of Spotlight technique with an embossing twist! I love experiments! 😊


                        I started with one of the double running stitches dies to cut my focal panel from a watercolor sheet. Stamped the butterfly in Versamark embossing ink and sprinkled embossing glitter powder, heat embossed it, look at the shine, Wow, amazing!


          The Spotlight Technique is very interesting to highlight any part of the image in Black & white and then color it. But my twist is instead of Black &white I highlighted it with silver embossing touch!

     
I decided to highlight my butterfly image using star die with a trail!



I used glass watercoloring technique to color my spotlight area. I wet the area with loose water and leave a very thin dot to spread the color with water. I am very happy with the result! And matted it. Now line up the colored image with the silver color stamped image.



                        Stamped my greeting and I masked the sentiment to highlight the word Sparkle. Love the shine!Matted my focal panel too. Wrapped my label with a satin ribbon and adhered my focal panel to my card base.
My card base is white and adhered a piece of matching blue PP  to the left side of the card. Now I finished it off making a trail with my own loads of bling.



The final view once again:

The sentiment is foiled!

A Friendly Hello!

 Hello, crafty peeps!

Good Morning to all!
Happy Independence Day to all my Indian Crafty Friends!

So excited to share my creation in Rainbow colors on this important and happy day!


                           This adorable scene is created with Phoebe with her wagon stamp set. This set is so versatile with cute images and sentiments. I colored the images using distress inks and cut them with coordinating dies. I trimmed some parts of the cute image of doggy because I wanted to show him hang on those fences.


      I used the ice-cream spoons to create my fence and cut them accordingly my need. And choose to go with the rainbow colored theme using distress inks.



        I created a hill slope using a die and dotted papers. Cut the grass from a designer paper too and adhered at the back of the hill slope as shown in the pic.

 Using my puffy clouds die I created my own stencil and applied on my white textured card base.


   The sentiment is also from the same set. And I did foil experiment the very first time using bonding powder. After two trials, little happy with the results will experiment again for the best result 😊


    For more interest and textures used stitching holes die at the bottom.


Embellished it with some flower sequins!
One more pic from another angle!


It's always a fun to create a scene!
Thank you for stopping by and hope you enjoyed this cute friendly scene!

I fussy cut the colored bloom out of it for my spotlight panel. Fussy cut brown colored foam sheet too and adhered both the layers on my metallic CS.

A close-up look:


Die cut a sentiment out of both metallic and stamped a sentiment in ground espresso ink.



Hope you all enjoyed my creation!
