TCC Feature Friday- Bertie and Friend

TGIF!

The first week back from vacation is always a hard one and my work load was really heavy.  I’m happy it’s Friday and I can take a little break because next week will be very busy as well.

Here’s my TCC card for this week; I picked the Bertie and Friend image.  I have wanted to work with this one for a while and thought it was perfect for the highlighting technique.  The technique is very easy to do and gives some eye popping results. 

I used black cardstock and a silver metallic paper with black accents so the colours would really pop.

I printed out the image twice (love those digi stamps!) and used my nesties to cut out specific parts of the image.  I like the highlighting to be a little off centre, it’s a little more interesting.  For example, take a look at the butterfly.  It would be very easy to have the whole butterfly in the circle and it would have a completely different effect.

 

I popped up the highlights on dimensionals for a little more oomph.
