Guest Designing for JUGS #347

Hi Everyone,

this is my inspiration for Just Us Girls second week challenge:


It is trend week and the technique is spotlighting. This is kind of hot right now - seeing it all over blog land. And it does look really cool and its perfect for all of us with limited coloring skills, like myself... 

I wanted to use this beautiful Technique Junkie stamp - got it in April at the Allentown stamp Fair. It was begging me to be inked up....
The sentiment is by Neat&Tangled. Added Bakers twine. 


Always wanted to do spotlighting?? Now is the time to do it! Can't wait to see what you create!

Happy Spot Lighting!

Cornelia!! I've heard of this technique, but I've never seen it used so beautifully! HOW did you do this? It seems you've used a circle stamp, but then colored, too? Tutorial, please? xx

Hello Cornelia: WOW!! this is simply gorgeous!!!
You have inspired me to give this challenge a try, your spot lighting technique is "SPOT ON!!!" Love the beautiful colors, and by the way, you are an amazing colorist, I'm in awe at all of your creations.
Thank you for the inspiration, I'm definitely giving this challenge a try.

Did you say something about limited coloring skills???? I don't believe it! Not from what I've seen...think you're a bit too hard on yourself. To me, You can do anything. (No, there is nothing nefarious about that statement.) This card just proves my point...it's exceptional. Once again, your eye for design creates an extraordinarily gorgeous card. Love this spotlight technique and you do it perfectly.

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fiftee...
