Last Week’s Card & Cuppa – Spotlight on Nature

For last week’s Card & Cuppa project, I chose to CASE a design in the Annual Catalogue. As the attendees had previously commented they liked the picture, it seemed a good opportunity to let them create it themselves.

The main focus of this design is the Spotlight on Nature Bundle. This discounted Bundle is Spotlight on Nature Stamp Set and Spotlight on Nature Dies.

First, the two images were stamped in Early Espresso. They are then coloured using Watercolor Pencils. By using darker and lighter colours, I was able to achieve the look of shading.

Due to the detail on the images, I chose not to use a Blender Pen as I didn’t want to ‘muddy’ the colouring.


Next, it was a first outing for the new Basic Beige Cardstock with the sentiment stamped on it in Old Olive. This was cut out using the coordinating Dies from the Bundle.

A strip of Berry Burst, cut to a banner end was then added. The sentiment sits on top of this on Dimensionals.

Finally, some Berry Burst Sequins from the Sequins Trio pack are added for a touch of sparkle.

I can’t wait to use this Bundle to create even more projects.

Happy crafting
