STAMPlorations Spotlight - Creating a focal black n white effect!

Hello friends! Today I am up with a spotlight project over at the STAMPlorations blog. This is my very first spotlight feature and I am both excited and nervous :) I hope I will be able to inspire you.  I am showcasing a technique often done in photography. 


So, here's a look into the finished project. 

I have used STAMPlorations beautiful new release Bloom Sketches set.  Please head over to the STAMPlorations blog for a photo tutorial on this card.
