Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inspirations Blog Hop where we are showcasing the spotlight technique. I have made my card using the Mixed Florals stamp set.
Colours used to make this card are:
To recreate the spotlight on florals card, you will need:
Soft Sea Foam card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Fresh Freesia card – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Basic White card – 5” by 3¼”
Secret Sea card – 1¾” by ⅜”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Using the large floral image, I stamped in the upper left and lower right corners of the Soft Sea Foam card base with Soft Sea Foam ink. I set this aside to dry.

Using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder I embossed the Fresh Freesia panel.

The large floral image was then stamped onto the 5” by 3¼” piece of Basic White card with Secret Sea ink. Using a 1¾” Circle Punch I punched out part of the image. The stamped panel was then adhered to the Fresh Freesia embossed panel and then to the Soft Sea Foam card front.

I coloured the punched-out part of the image using the following Blends Pens – Lemon Lolly, Fresh Freesia and Soft Sea Foam. The punched part was then repositioned into the stamped panel but raised up on Dimensionals.

The sentiment, from the Twisted In Time stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto the strip of Secret Sea card, I covered it with White Embossing Powder and set it with my Heat Tool. I trimmed it down and angled the end before adding it to the card front on Dimensionals.
