H is for hotspot

This weeks ABC Christmas challenge is 'H is for Hotspot'. I had never seen this technique before but they have a good tutorial along with the challenge to help you use it. I will also enter the card into this weeks Passion for Promarkers challenge (make your own embellishments - I made the flower from little die-cut hearts stuck together) and Sweet Sketch Wednesday challenge (sketch).
