He’s a friendly little guy!!!

Good morning peeps!!!

I hope you had an awesome weekend!!

I had my (virtual) Leaders Summit this weekend, and IT WAS FABULOUS!!!!

We've been spoiled by amazing IN PERSON events for so long!

I wasn't sure how ONLINE would compare!!

Like, it's not the same, right???

IT.WAS.FABULOUS.

I said that already.

They used some new (to us) platform that aligned with Zoom, so we could also have breakout rooms….6-8 people in a room for networking!

It was amazing!!!

Every Stampin' Up! Event I "attend", I'm reminded just how special of a company I represent.

Anyway, my weekend was great!

And Todd and I made a peach pie together, too!!

Yum. I didn't make one last year.

I still prefer Betty, but it felt good to work on it together.

I made the crust and he sliced the peaches.

I like him.

Hahaha!!

I just looked up at my title to my post and laughed!

Cuz I WASN'T talking about Todd!!

Haha!

I had my Whale Done Bundle Classes last week, and I just had to do a SPOTLIGHT of this cute little guy!

He cracks me up!!!

He's in the middle of the EAC (if you recall from Finding Nemo), and he's flashing a smile at the "camera"!

Just love him.

Here's the complete card:

SPOTLIGHTING: a technique used to create a focal point of a certain area of an image. It doesn't have to be a specific image; it could be just a small area of a much larger item.

Often in stamping, there will be a large uncolored image or scene.
Then an area of the image is popped up with a colored layer of cardstock behind it; you really can use any graduated shape–punches or dies–but it's often circles or squares
Then the part of the image that is "spotlighted" is colored.

Obviously, my definition doesn't quite fit my example since I completely used already colored DSP.

But my little guy is definitely spotlighted with the colored layer behind it. (You can choose to pop it with Dimensionals or not.)

And I used my Stitched Shapes Dies! 😀
