Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop - Technique Challenge



Hello and welcome to the final Around the World on Wednesday Blog Hop for 2024.

Below is an image of the crew and where they live around the world. A wonderful group of creative people who love to share their projects with you.

You may have arrived from my friend Jan Clothier from New Zealand. She is always creating the most beautiful projects! 


This months theme is a Technique Challenge. And technique that is new to me. This was a tough one as I enjoy techniques and trying them out myself. The Mirror Image Technique was one that I had not tried before. I chose a sweet cat from the Pets & More stamp set to use for this technique.



The card base and mat layer under the cats is Pumpkin Pie and the background layer a piece from the fun Full of Life Designer Series paper. The cats were stamped on a piece of Basic white card stock.




I used a stamp positioning tool to stamp the cat on the right first my card stock. I then stamped the cat again on my Silicon Craft Sheet then placed my card stock over the top and rubbed to get a good reverse image. I then coloured my cats with a small Blending Brush before adhering all the layers together. The cat layer adhered with Dimensionals. The sentiment was stamped in Summer Splash ink on Summer Splash card stock. I used my scissors to trim down and banner the ends. The sentiment was adhered using Dimensionals.

Up next on this Blog Hop is my friend Rochelle Laird-Smith. Click on the next blog button below to see her wonderful project!
