Now, on to my card. I used the Portrait Of A Fairy stamp by stamp designer Christina Lynn Myers. Today's theme was orange, which I think I managed to pull off, even if I did throw in a small amount of purple and black.
I was going through my stash of stamps and found this one that I had completely forgotten about. So glad I did too! It was my inspiration for trying out a technique that I haven't used in a very long time.
What technique would that be? Mirroring a stamped image, of course. To create the mirror image, I simply stamped the image on the left directly onto my white cardstock. Then, I stamped the image again onto a piece of transparency. Then, I simply flipped the transparency over, lined up the image with the one I had previously stamped on the cardstock, then rubbed over the image to transfer the ink onto the cardstock. Instant mirror image of your stamp.
Very cute. I may have to try the mirror image technique sometime.
ReplyDeleteSo cool, haven't heard of trying the mirror technique that way. Your card is beautiful, love the papers you've used.
