What is a Reversable Stamp you might ask. You are able to stamp the detailed image (just like always) but then you can turn it over and stamp the solid image too.
I cased this card from Stampin' Up!'s spring mini catalog. It can be found on page 56. The card is so lovely but it's simple and fun to do.
The images are large enough to create lovely focal points on your card or to create a great background like this one.
I stamped the detailed image with Shaded Spruce on the card front of Lost Lagoon cardstock. Then I turned the stamp over and stamped again with Lost Lagoon ink. TIP : be sure to use the Foam Mat under the cardstock when stamping to get a good, solid image.
To finish the card:
- Card base is Lost Lagoon cardstock 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" folded in half
- The card front is Lost Lagoon cardstock cut 4 1/2" x 5 1/2"
- Stamp the greeting in Wild Wheat ink (from Linked Together stamps set) on white cardstock
- Stamp the flower in Delightful Daffodil ink and color with blends, pencils or markers
- Stamp the leaf images with Lemon Lime Twist ink
- Punch out with the 2 1/2" circle and add with Stampin Dimensionals.
- Wrap with linen Thread 3 times, tying in a bow.
- Add to the card base with Stampin' Dimensionals
- Add some splatter with the Lost Lagoon Stampin' Write Marker
- Add the gems.
A wonderful card to send to a special person in your life.

Note: The 2 1/2" circle punch is retired but any punch or dies that will give you a circle that is close to that size will work.
Also, to create splatter you can use the Lost Lagoon blends, or Stampn' Write Marker, a water painter dipped in your stamp pad or you could easily use a black Stampin' Write marker.
