Hi friends,
I have a Father's Day card for my sons' grandpa to share today along with a video of how it came together.
Here's the card:
and the innie:
I used a Mirror Image stamp (from Rubber Stampede) I've had forever and a day so, I don't know if it is available. However, Paper Smooches and So Suzy Stamps offer versions of the mirror image stamp. I used the mirror image stamp so both cubs are facing PaPa bear. It's a tricky process using that mirror image stamp! But here are a couple of tips I have for you:
1) Using Versafine Onyx Black ink gave the cleanest, darkest impression.
2) Press DOWN FIRMLY on the image to transfer without rubbing or shifting the paper.
3) Use a Copic multiliner (if using Copics) to trace the image so it looks like the original image.
I will apologize in advance about the coloring part of the video... as some of it was out of frame... ok, a lot was out of frame :( lol. but you're not missing much...it was super simple coloring.
Here's the video:
Or watch it on my YouTube Chanel ---> HERE.
I thought this would be a great stamp set for PaPa's card since he and the boys go on fishing trips with him *Ü*

What an adorable card!!! Love the fish in Papa Bear's mouth. Thanks for the step-by-step video showcasing your creative process. btw, English is also Wolfgang's third language.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet card. Oh, I have one of those stamps to reverse images...... But how sweet is the card with both cubs facing the Papa. Love the scene you created.
