Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are showcasing the spotlight technique. I have used the Enduring Beauty stamp set and Tahitian Tide ink, a soon to be retiring colour.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the Tahitian tide floral card, you will need:

Basic Black card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”

Using Tahitian Tide ink, I randomly stamped the large floral image all over the Tahitian Tide card front and set it aside.

I used a 1¾” Circle Punch to punch out a part of the stamped image. The large image with the punched out circle was glued to the Basic Black layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I used the same glue to add the stamped panel tp the Tahitian Tide card base.
