Free as a Bird

I was showing some of my lovely crafting ladies a little while ago how to get the most out of their stamparatus and I showed them this technique called Mirror image stamping.

You do need a stamparatus to achieve it and also a silicon mat. You place the bird stamp on your stamparatus plate and stamp the first bird on a silicon mat. Place your card face down on the silicon mat and press with stamp to transfer image from silicon mat onto your card. Turn card over to see transfered image. You can then stamp the second bird onto your card, next to the transferred mirror image bird.

I decided to colour these birds to look like common garden sparrows sharing a worm. Only after I had finished the card, did I learn that sparrows don’t normally eat worms!
