Stamping with the STARS #311: Spotlighting Technique Inspiration
March 23, 2019
The DOstamperSTARS are excited to bring you another Inspiration Hop #DOswts311. This week we're having fun with the Spotlighting Technique!
OK, I have to admit it. When I was going through my stamp sets to select just the right image for the Spotlighting Technique, I did not even consider the Dandelion Wishes set. But for some reason it "spoke to me" and jumped into my hands. So I went with it. I'm glad I did, as I'm happy with the results.
How'd She DO That? Dandelion Wishes card:
- Whisper White Thick (11" x 4-1/4" card base)
- Whisper White (4" x 3" and scrap)
- Night of Navy (4-1/2" x 3-1/2" and scrap)
Spotlighting Technique Instructions:
- Select a stamp set to use ("outline images" work nicely for this technique)
- I used Dandelion Wishes
- Stamp image with black or neutral ink
- I used Night of Navy
- Stamp again with same ink on a scrap piece
- or a different colored ink for more "solid image" type - I used Mango Melody
- Die cut or punch out only a PORTION of the extra stamped image into a circle (or square, etc) to become the spotlight.
- I used the 1" Circle and 1-1/8" Scallop Circle Punches.
- If needed, color the spotlight piece and layer onto a colored cardstock matte.
- Then adhere the spotlight piece over the original image, lining up both images.
Wouldn't this be a nice card to let someone know you're thinking of them?
Let your stamps "speak" to you and give the Spotlighting Technique a try!
