Cards in Envy Challenge - In the Spotlight



Welcome to another Cards in Envy Challenge!  For this challenge we are to create an A2 sized card (5.5" x 4.25")  that "Spot Lights" an item or area on your card to make it stand out.  For example, maybe on part of your image like one flower or the face you make a circle of light or what looks like a light on just that part of the card.  Only requirement is that the card is 1/4" or less in thickness in order to fit in an envelope.

Here's is my "Spotlight" card"

Designer Paper = American Crafts
Cricut cartridge = New Testament, Accent Essentials
Sentiment = CardzTV "Encouraging Thoughts" stamp set.
Twine = from Michaels
