Happy Monday again! I am squeaking in another card today for the FMS sketch:
I have to admit that I haven't made a spotlight card for a long time and almost just tossed this one in the trash after several attempts, but I finally managed to eke one out that I felt was good enough to share! It uses a pretty image from Unity's March 2026 Kit of the Month called Good Vibes:
Still not sure about the mixing of the greens! Anyway, I stamped one image in black and another in mint green, then diecut a circle from the blackone and watercolored it in:
I embossed a Soft Sea Foam panel with the Eyelet embossing folder, trimmed everything down, added a stitched scalloped border and a sweet sentiment from the same set, then popped up the spotlit image. Fresh and springy! Thanks for popping in today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

This is rather lovely LeAnne - the coloured circle really pops against the calming greens. Such a good showcase of this technique.
LeAnne, I personally think you married those greens just beautifully - and I do favor red geraniums! A wonderful place for your pretty Monarch [or is it a Viceroy?] to rest after his long flight from Mexico!
Thanks for always making our FMS sketch look good!

your card is gorgeous and there is so much visual interest there...
What a great job on the watercoloring. Love the butterfly and geraniums. BUT you had me scared in your chart listing Stylish Shapes being retired...I think you meant Stitched Shapes :-)
Love how you used the spotlight technique to highlight your focal point. Such beautiful coloring, too! Thanks for linking up to FMS this week!
Love the spotlight for the sketch! So pretty. So glad you joined my sketch this week at FMS!
LeAnne ~ i love your spotlight card!!
A spotlight card is perfect for this sketch, LeAnne! Your geraniums are so pretty!
I think it's just lovely LeAnne! I put a pot of red geraniums on our front porch every summer!
This is so fantastic LeAnne! I love how well you've lined up that circular image and the colouring is perfect. The background embossing is so pretty as well! Thanks for joining us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
