Pumpkin Patch

I wasn't real happy for my Happy Harvest card for the spotlight technique that I just had to make another one. So, this was created for StampTV's Technique Challenge - STVTC32 - Spotlighting. I used a stamp called Pumpkin Patch by D.O.T.S. I stamped the image on 2 pieces of white card stock. I took one and colored part of the pumpkins with Prisma color pencils and OMS. I then took a Nestabilities Circles Die-Cut and cut out the colored image. I dabbed Memento Rich Cocoa around the circle edges. On the plain image I used Memento Desert Sand and sponged around the edges and sponged certain areas of the pumpkins with Memento Rich Cocoa. The brown and orange card stock is TAC. I embossed 3/4 of the brown card stock with Cuttlebug Houndstooth and the other 1/4 with Cuttlebug Swiss Dots. I embellished the card with KI Memories Ribbon - Grateful Stripes, 3 orange mini brads, jute and a brown button. The words Happy Harvest is from a set called TrendyGreetings by TAC. I stamped the words on orange card stock cut out with Nestabilities Labels 4 Die-Cut.

Happy Harvest

I made this card for StampTV's Technique Challenge - STVTC32 - Spotlighting. This was my first attempt at this technique. I definitely will do another card to be more comfortable using this technique. The stamp I choose is from a set called Autumn Beauty by Gina K Designs. I colored the sunflower with Prisma color pencils and OMS. The image was cut out with Nestabilies Circles Die-Cut and sponged around the edges with Memento Rich Cocoa. I also cut out the plain image with Nestabilities Ovals Die-Cut and dark brown card stock with the Scallop Ovals Die-Cut. I sponged around the image with Memento Desert Sand and sponged a little Rich Cocoa on the plain sunflower image. The card stocks (dark brown, olive and yellow) are from TAC. The yellow card stock was embossed with Cuttlebug Argyle Embossing Folder. The olive card stock was punched out with Fiskars Sunburst Border Punch and Sizzlits Photo Corners #2 Die-Cuts. I embellished the card with jute, 2 yellow mini brads and yellow/green ribbon. The words Happy Harvest are from TAC - TrendyGreetings and stamped on yellow card stock that was cut out with Sizzlits Scallop Tag Die-Cut.
