This is for the Technique Challenge to do Reverse Image. I don't have any clear stamps; I'm still old school with wood mounted stamps. I thought about how I could make this work. I put my stamp upside down on my table. On top of it, I laid the acrylic sheet that came with my Stamp-a-ma-jig with the smooth side up. Using the brush tip of my marker, I drew on the acrylic over the outline flower petals. I turned the sheet over and pressed it down on my paper, smoothing it out with my finger. Then I stamped the fine lined image on top of it. Tore the paper at the bottom and sponged, stamped some scattered leaves, filled in the flower centers with a marker and finished with layers, enamel dots, twine and a tiny sentiment. Now that it's all done, I realize that this doesn't work for reverse stamping; I actually did a modified two-step stamping. I'm posting it anyway because I tried (& failed) and maybe someone else can benefit from my mistake. It was fun to experiment and I got a card out of it. Thanks for looking!

Actually your look is VERY similar to those done on a clear stamp. Sometimes we just have to work with what we've got . . .been there - done that - I love those itty bitty yellow dots scattered throughout your leaves.
