Another double header today. This card is for Flourishes' Timeless Tuesday Challenge #14--to use beads and Stampin' B's Challenge #4 to use the spotlighting technique. I'd used beads lots of times but this is the first time I'd tried spotlighting--and I love how it turned out!
My base card is Very Vanilla with layers of Basic Gray, Tangerine Tango, and DP from Cosmo Cricket's Everafter collection.

I absolutely love your stuff, Barbara! It's always the most inspiring blog I go to every day and you have my style -- lotsa layering! BTW, I've tried to vote for you but can't figure out the way to do it, so I'm sorry I couldn't contribute to your winning.
ReplyDeleteThis card is just lovely. I love the color combo. I never thought of "spot lighting" an image. Something I will definitely have to try! I also wanted to say Thank You for stopping by my blog yesterday and commenting on my "cupcake" flower. Have a super day and be blessed.

Very pretty, great colors and use of beads.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card! Love these colors!!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous---hmmm, I feel a "CASE" coming on. For a moment, after reading your title, I actually thought you glued on tiny little orange beads to your focal image. I was thinking that I would faint if that was actually what you did...like, were you INSANE? Phew, I am glad it was just COLORED in! Absolutely gorgeous, I love this color combo! And the beaded pin looks wonderful too!
