Reflection Stamping Made Easy

Are you someone who likes to decorate your envelopes?  The Lovely Lattice set has a small flower that fits perfectly on the envelope flap. The thing is though, the stamp itself is a single flower and to get this mirror image look I used a stamp positioner to do the reflection stamping.

Card showcases paper piecing with Stampin'UP!'s Lovely Lattice Sale-a-bration Stamp Set.

No matter what you call it: mirror image or reflection stamping
either way its a cool look that's surprisingly easy to accomplish.
This short video shows how easy it is to do Reflection Stamping.


Years ago I used to do this technique with the Stamp-a-ma-jig (which is basically a T-square sized for stamps). My new favorite stamp positioning tool is Stampin'UP!'s Stamparatus.  


This thing is amazing, I use my Stamparatus so much more than I ever thought I would. It does much more than just helping line up stamps and do reflection stamping.  
  * Check out this post where the hinge feature helps create the illusion of motion,
  * or this one where I used it to help me create a square frame from a straight stamp.

Thanks for stopping by today.  BTW: tomorrow's post will feature the card shown with this envelope.
