Focal Point

My Favourite Things  have been running a Summer School with lessons on card composition.  Lesson # 2 was all about creating a focal point.  The homework was to go away and create a card with a focal point.  The focal point being the main area where an embellishment or stamped image is placed.

Having chosen my stamp, a little LOTV Friendship Recipe I set to trying to create a focal point for it.  I have to say this was a little harder than I anticipated but after much tooing and froing I think I have achieved it.  I will be very interested to see what you think.  The papers I used are from 2 of the new LOTV collections Dress shoppe and Sunny Side Up.
