One of the most basic techniques in stamping is SPOTLIGHTING. Only a portion (or "spotlight") is colored. I have never done this, till today!!
I just love this sunflower stamp!!
I first stamped the flower with black onto white, and colored it with gray pencils. Then I stamped it with brown onto white and colored it with colored pencils. I punched out a square of the color sunflower and matted it. I lined it up on the B & W image and adhered it.
I added the ribbons to go along with today's Technique Lover's Challenge at SplitCoastStampers.
Materials used:
- Stamps: Autumn Sunflower and Fern Leaf Tooled Leather;
- Paper: White, Black, Basic Gray, More Mustard; DP from Paper Studio;
- Ink: Palette-Noir; Colorbox Fluid Chalk Ink-Chestnut Roan;
- Accessories: Martha Stewart punch; ribbon; charm; corner slot punch;
This was so much fun--I hope to try it again, soon!
Thanks for stopping by!
