This month’s technique is Spotlight. As the name suggests, this puts the spotlight on a small portion of the image by colouring that part and leaving the rest as an outline.

1. Stamp full outline image. I used Sweetbriar Rose. 
2. Stamp the portion of the image that you are going to spotlight on a scrap piece.
3. Decide the exact part of the image to spotlight.
4. Punch the spotlight portion.
5. Colour the spotlight portion.
6. Punch out a coloured layer and attach it to the spotlight.
7. Line up and attach the spotlight to the full image.
8. Complete card as desired.

This technique provides a WOW factor with very little effort. Try it with any detailed line art image.
