{Spotlight Project} Maria's Rainbow Goes Awry

How's summer treating you, STAMP friends?  I was having a good ol' time keeping cool in my basement and having lots of ink blending/stenciling fun this month on my blog. I decided to carry it over to my Spotlight projects too. In my last Spotlight I mentioned today's card which totally drove me bananas and which did not turn out at all like I'd hoped. But I'm sharing it anyway to see if you can help me figure out what went wrong!
