Dear Friend Spotlight Technique

Here is the 2nd card that I created using the Spotlighting Technique. The fun part of this technique is you can feature any part of the images you stamp using any punch or die you have on hand.

What’s the Spotlighting Technique?
This technique creates a beautiful focal point with just a die or punch and some colouring. There are so many different variations to design a card with this technique and I hope you enjoy my designs!
