Mirror Stamping


Here I tried the "mirror stamping" for the first time. I had to practice a few times before I got a good stamped image.
I used the  Lawn Fawn "Critters in the Sea" and "Scripty Sayings" stamp set. And the "Large Stitched Circle Stackables" die.


I stamped the turtle with "memento" (tuxedo black) on the back side of an other acrylic stamp. Then stamped the image on a white cardstock. The places where it did not transfer the ink very well I could fix it with a "memento" marker.
I colored the turtles with 'Prismacolor" and "Wink of Stella" for the glittery look.
For my watercolor background I used "Distresss Ink "tumbled glass" and "cracked pistachio".
