Last night was Technique Thursday and stamp club and one of the techniques we worked on was the bokeh effect.  According to the dictionary here is the definition of bokeh.

1. In photography, bokeh (Originally /ˈboʊkɛ/, /ˈboʊkeɪ/ BOH-kay — also sometimes pronounced as /ˈboʊkə/ BOH-kə, Japanese: [boke]) is the aesthetic quality of the blur produced in the out-of-focus parts of an image produced by a lens. Bokeh has been defined as "the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light".

It has become quite popular in the stamping world and here is the card they made last night.
