Mirror Image Stamping Technique

 Hello and Welcome to my Blog.

Wishing everyone good health as we move through out winter months.

Today, I would like to share a new technique I tried by making this card.  If you have 30 minute of play time, give it a try.  It takes a bit to master the Mirror Image Stamping Technique.

Head to You Tube and search out Mirror Image Stamping and you will see a few video's that can show you how to stamp a mirror image of a stamp.

I am supporting small business stamping companies by playing along with challenges that I will link below so that you can visit their websites.

Simon Says Stamp Blog has a Monday and Wednesday weekly challenge.  Check it out HERE.

Simon Says Wed. Feb. 17th challenge was titled "Favorite Technique"  

Here is my card I have designed to incorporate several challenges. 

Lawn Fawn has presented a sketch challenge  # 95.

One of my favorite go to tools is the  Clear Design Scrubber Pad for stamp cleaning.

Check it out at the Hero Arts STORE.

Hero offers a great selection of embossing powder as well.  I have used
