Default Highlight technique

Someone posted a link to some cards using this technique and I can't find it now. It's something I wanted to try on a card and darn it, I didn't save it in my favorites. Could someone please help?

Spotlighting is when you stamp an image on 2 pieces of cardstock. Color one area of one of the images. Cut or punch it out, layer it on a mat to make it pop, then line it up over the uncolored image. Or you can take a solid shape stamp and stamp over the image instead of stamping on a separate piece.

It was Technique Lovers Challenge 6 if you want lots of examples. You can color with anything. I've done: shape stamp, polished stone, pastels, watercolor pencils, and reverse (image behind instead of on top). I love this technique!

I hope that's what you meant. I don't think I've heard of highlighting.

Could it have been crayon resist? It adds highlights, maybe that's what you were thinking?

Yes, this is it! I will bookmark this link this time.

Thanks.
