Fantastic Spotlight Colouring Techniques for Cardmaking

Hello Crafters! How are you? I have a really fun spotlight colouring technique for you today!! These are some cards I created for the latest Creative Stamping magazine using the stamps and dies that come in the magazine. It’s a really lovely technique to do, because it allows you to really create a focal point to your image by only colouring a select part of it and leaving the rest uncoloured. I think this adds a nice level of additional interest to your cards. I’ve shown 5 ideas for spotlighting your colouring in different ways, but you could use this technique with any layout you fancied.

I love the gifts that come with this month’s magazine – the stamp set is HUGE, and perfect for the nature lovers in your life, of which I have a lot! And the small die set contains really useable sentiments.

Check out the video below to see the tutorial for all of these cards, then scroll to the bottom of the post to find links to the supplies you will need to create it!
