Mirrored Campervan for the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Posted on December 23, 2021January 4, 2022 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing our favourite Stampin’ Up! Products. So much to choose from – eventually I settled on our fabulous Stamparatus and decided to showcase the mirror technique and make a sweet mirrored campervan card for a friend’s anniversary.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the mirrored campervan card, you will need:

I mounted the campervan image on the Stamparatus plate and stamped the image in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on the smaller panel of Basic White card. I moved the plate along 2 hinge steps, placed the Silicon Mat on top of the stamped image, inked up and stamped onto the Silicon Mat. I repeated this step to get a darker image.

The sentiment, from the Beauty of Friendship stamp set was stamped in Evening Evergreen ink. My customers will have to chose a sentiment from their own stash.

I used liquid glue to adhere the die cut detailed flowers to the flower bases. I had to move them around until they lined up. The liquid glue was squeezed out onto my Silicon Craft Mat, picked up with a Sponge Dauber and dabbed on the back of the detailed flower.

The deer image was stamped in Soft Suede ink onto a scrap of Crumb Cake card and punched out using the Deer Builder Punch. I added it to the embossed circle with liquid glue. I decorated the circle with a trio of Red Rhinestones.

The sentiment was stamped in Real Red ink onto the strip of Basic White card. This was trimmed down before being mounted onto the Crumb Cake strip and added with liquid glue to the card front.

Sweet card, I hope you agree.
