The Waffle Flower succulent image is stamped on two white panels, with one carefully & selectively die cut to give me the four smaller panels. Two of the panels are colored with Inktense pencils before they are assembled over the second stamped white panel.
For a little extra dimension, the two colored panels are adhered with thin foam squares raising them slightly higher than the other panels.
A Papertrey Ink sentiment finishes the card off. This is my first time trying the Spotlight Technique and I am really happy with the results.
I am also linking this card to Seize the Birthday where the current challenge has SUNSHINE as the Topping. I could stretch the sunshine idea to succulents being the flowers of sunshine states, but think this belongs in the Anything Goes option.
Thanks for stopping by,
Jacquie
