How to do Reflection Stamping

Love this cute little bunny - note, he's facing to the left.

Did you ever have a stamp that you wished faced the other direction? 
Or wished you had two of an image, one facing each direction.  
Solve either issue by learning to do reflection stamping.

The concept is simple: the ink on the stamp creates an image facing left.
Add an intermediate step, stamp on a non-porous surface to hold the ink facing left
then bring your paper down and the image on the paper now faces right. 

Add another one more step to get a vertical reflection

Easy to explain in words - even easier to understand by watching.
This 5 minute video explains it all.
