Reflection Technique with Mountain Air

I honestly didn't know I'd enjoy creating with the Mountain Air bundle as much as I do.  I didn't think it would be so easy to work with!  

Even this reflection technique is simple to create.  Do you know why?  Because of the reversible nature of these stamps.  The mountain image is textured on one side, creating the pretty mountain peaks on this card.  The mountain shadow/reflection on the water is made with the same stamp but using the solid side.

This card is part of my free written projects tutorial for anyone who placed an online order from me in March.  And it's also free to anyone who orders the Mountain Air bundle too!  You can see this bundle here. 

If you order it in March you can get a free Sale-a-Bration choice! Below I show each stamp in three ways.  First is the detailed side of the stamp, next is the flat side and lastly you see them together.  Reversible stamps are so neat and Stampin' Up! is super clever to create them!

Details for the card above:

1.  I stamped the mountains first, then the trees underneath. 
2.  I turned the trees stamp upside down and without reinking, stamped them again for a reflection. 
3.  Next the mountain reflection. 
4.  Lastly I sponged a bit of light blue on the sky and darker blue for water.  
5. The greetings are from the Well Written dies and Well Said stamp set. 
6. Colors are Mossy Meadow, Pacific Point and Smoky Slate

• CUTE Pillowbox ‘treat box’ you’ll love!

  September 21, 2022

  ---

  I made this cute box using the Pretty Pillow Box dies.  Does it look like a pumpkin to you?  

  Save

  It does use the Pretty Pillow box dies for the flat shape of the front of this box, but the box itself is made from a piece of card stock (see measurements below). I found this idea from fellow demonstrator Lynda Emerson.  As usual I changed it up a bit from hers. 

  Products used:

  Crumb Cake card stock, He’s the Man DSP, strips of Mossy Meadow for apple die trim & for the leaves die-cuts, Pretty Pillow Box dies seen here, Stylish Shapes (for the circle die-cut), Penned Flower & Apple Blossom dies, Stripes & Spatters EF, Linen Thread for the bow, Simply Scored Scoring tool

  The inside of the box would hold quite a few treats; it's a good size!  

  Save

  Measurements:

  • Crumb Cake 5 ¼” X 7 ¼” scored at 2" on all 4 sides, plus two die-cut pillow box pieces
  • He’s the Man DSP 2 ¼” X 4 ½”

  Here is what the Pretty Pillow box dies look like:

  Here are all of the projects I made. The other two cards feature the Hello Harvest bundle.
