This month I decided to create spotlight cards and reverse spotlighting...this is a fun technique that has been around for years. Basically what you do
is stamp image twice then punch out sections and mount them onto second stamped image. clear as
mudd, right? lol! Besides doing the spotlight technique I did a shape card and easel card using Spellbinders Nestabilities dies. You know
what they say a picture is worth a thousand words so please check out my samples then check out what the rest of our design team has to offer this month. Next check out what Janine has done with this stamp set.
