Reflected Images

[LLHotshot]

I love all the beautiful cards with reflected images. How do you do this. I am a new stamper so am clueless :oops:

Ink up your stamp and stamp onto a smooth background stamp, then take the background stamp and stamp on the cardstock. I have seen posts where others use the brayer instead of a smooth background stamp. Then with your image stamp, stamp above the reflection. Hope this helps.

Where does one find a smooth background stamp? I was going to use the brayer but I'd rather stamp on a flat surface than a round one. Thanks!

Any of the solid background shapes will work, like Little Shapes. I've also read that some people use large rubber erasers, too. Hope that helps some more.

I found a smooth image stamp at Michaels. Works great!

Great Shapes (page 177 of the catalog) is great for this.

Thanks for the help! Sounds easy enough!

you can also stamp on vellum and reverse... it's a little paler, but cool if you want it to look like a reflection!
