Spotlight Technique ?

Hi Everyone a card with a, new for me, technique I tried, 
but not like you clever people, but in PS. 
with a pattern by Marisa Lerin at Pixelscrapper
The sentiment is a free download from Desert Diva
I selected a circle shape and made a mask of the shape then painted inside the circle. 
I printed it out on cross hatched paper, making it an interesting texture effect.
I 3D'd the sentiment and added little squares 
which are off cuts from a die I used ages ago.
I suppose by my digital try at this effect, I am daring to be different.



I really didn't couldn't see the point of scrapbook pages 
UNTIL I made a couple of digital pages,
 now I am seeing photos for what they can be, and I'm loving it.
Here is a scrap page I did with photos of my recent camera walk.
Template is by Jilbert Beginnings 
The papers, flowers and berries elements are Dawn by Design.

Love the crosshatch paper - really gives an interesting texture to the card. Great job on the spotlighting and that sentiment is perfect for the card design.

Love the card and the scrapbook page is really pretty. I'm with you Faith in that I couldn't see the point of scrapbooking but just recently I am starting to record our trips etc. and I am also doing a baby book for my niece who is expecting in November.

I love your card and the spotlight technique. Those blackberries look good and would look even better in a yummy blackberry cobbler. Ummmmmmm.
