September Challenge Week 3 - Spotlight It!

We're back with the final reminder and more inspiration to play in our challenge this month which is to spotlight. it.  The spotlight technique is an oldie but we think it's still a goodie and there are plenty of ways to interpret it.  Basically you just need to "highlight" one area of your card either through the use of colour whilst the rest is black and white, by using a frame to pick out an area, mats and layers over stamping, or even by creative use of die cuts!  We'd love to see your take on the spotlight technique whether traditional or your modern twist.

If you're still a little confused then hopefully these examples we've brought you as a DT will give you a few ideas of how to take it.

Using Concord & 9th's Oh, Hello Turnabout stamp set, I spotlighted one of the words from the background by stamping in a teal gradient that matches the sentiment banner.



You've got until 10pm on Sunday 24th September to get your spotlights shining for a chance to win £20 to spend in store.  As always you MUST use at least ONE product from the choice of 8000+ products we have in store.  You can combine with other challenges but we must see that you used our challenge as inspiration to play.

September Sketch Challenge - Final Reminder

It's your final reminder to play along in our fun sketch challenge this month as the deadline is on Sunday 25th September so you have a little over a week to play.


You can choose to interpret the sketch in any way you like, as long as we see that it was the jumping point for your inspiration.  You can rotate it, make a card, a scrapbook or anything you like.  You must however use at least one product we sell in Seven Hills Crafts to be eligible to receive comments and for the chance to win the £15 prize.

Here's a final inspiration piece I made playing with the sketch to spark your inspiration!
