This is one of the cards I made at last weekend's Paper Haven Crafting Retreat.  It was hosted by Julie Sutcliffe and she had used the Flowers Fair stamp to stamp the background.

Her card then featured a fussy cut flower from the stamp which had been coloured with markers.  I didn't feel I could cut out a flower neatly enough so I stamped it again and die cut a circle.  I coloured the flowers in the circle and then used the spotlight technique.
