Last week, I shared one way to do the Reflection Technique with a Photopolymer plastic sheet. For this project sheet, the Silicone Craft Mat and Stamparatus was used for the technique. It's a fun alternative that allows you to have a little more ink on the reflection and give a little better transfer. The Animal Expedition DSP on this card gives a soft, coordinating pattern that is perfect for a background.
Step-By-Step Instructions:
- Adhere a 4” x 5-/4” piece of Animal Expedition DSP to a Pool Party card base.
- Place a 2-1/2” x 3-1/2” piece of Whisper White cardstock on the Stamparatus.
- Position the Animal Outing rubber stamp about ½” from the top and close the plate. This is the positioning for the reflection stamping.
- Remove Whisper White cardstock and replace with a Silicone Craft Sheet. Ink up the stamp with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and stamp onto the Silicone; then repeat to make sure the image is inked well.
- Add the Whisper White cardstock back to the Stamparatus on top of the Silicone. Bring the plate down onto the cardstock to press the cardstock onto the Silicone Mat to fully transfer the ink to the backside of the cardstock.
- Mount Animal Outing image back onto a regular acrylic block. Stamp the same Animal Outing image directly above the reversed image in Memento Black ink.
- Color the images with Stampin’ Blends Markers: Smoky Slate for the body, Ivory for the tusk, Pool Party for the water, and Daffodil Delight Dark, Cherry Cobbler Light & Pumpkin Pie Dark for the bird.
- Stamp the Animal Outing sentiment in Memento Black ink.
- Mount the stamped layer onto a 2-3/4” x 3-3/4” piece of Basic Black cardstock and adhere to the card front.
