you did a great job on this! Congrats.... Mine never turns out so nice... do you do the brayer part first then stamp the trees so that you can line them up easier.. I have a hard time lining up the shadow with the actual image.

I just love this card and would really like to learn this reflection technique.
Please share with me how it was done. What other stamp (besides the trees) would you also recommend for this technique?
Thanks

OK 1st of all you are going to do the reflection 1st by inking up the lovely as a tree stamp (i used black ) then roll your brayer over the inked up stamp.. ( i have used the rubber attachment but it will stain if you use black I have been using my acrylic attachment either of them work geat) ( rubber side up) and then roll the brayer on cs starting with the base line in the middle of the cs or where ever you want the image to be .... then turn the cs face up with reflection closest to you.and then stamp the reg image ( the NOT reflection side ) on cs you can line the stamp up much more better doing the reflection 1st... once you do it YOU will have it down ...Its that easy... I must say you all are going to love it ... Its one of those techniques you will get those comments like "YOU STAMPED THIS" WOW.. thats hard to believe.... I just love that when we can create master pieces of work and even fool those all around :-) I always say rubber stamping has come along way BABY!!!
you all must agree huh? Hope this helps ... I have also heard of another way of doing this technqiue by stamping the lovely as a tree stamp onto the "Shape of thing big retangle stamp" and then stamping the reflection on this way ( tip you must huff on the shape of things stamp before stamping image on cs for reflection .. BUT i found this way much harder to line up for the main stamping of image ... just play with both and see what works best for you ..
hope this helps You know where to find me if you need me :-)
