DTC Challenge #197 3-2-1 Recipe "You're In the Spotlight" with TSOT #676

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble #197 using the 3-2-1 Recipe "You're in the Spotlight" consisting of 3 Color of Choice (Purple, Yellow, Lagoon and Green), 2 Layers Not to Include Card Base, and 1 Spotlight Technique.  Click on Spotlight Technique here for easy tutorials for creating this technique. Also included using  Twisted Sister's optional twist to include flower(s) and share my card with our alternate challenge "Triple B (Butterflies, Birds & Blooms)".  My inspiration came from our sister challenge, TSOT, Try a Sketch on Tuesday #676, rotating the sketch to landscape.  



In the CTMH paperpack "Love Story" there was a large floral sticker in black and white.  I chose a scalloped circle, cutting out the center with a smaller scalloped circle to make a frame for the spotlight technique. I circled off the space to be colored and then colored the florals and leaves within the circle using Copic Sketch  (alcohol-base) pens.  

Adhered the floral on black cardstock, added 3D thin foam tape to adhere to the card base.  The frame was place around the colored floral sticker and adhered to the background.  To finish my card a sentiment was die cut using white cardstock was placed in upper right-hand corner. 

Please hop on over and join us at Double Trouble, have fun with our 3-2-1 Recipe "You're in the Spotlight" and play along with our optional twist and double dare while earning additional chances to our random drawing. Check out the Design Teams inspirations and let us see what you create... hope to see you there.
