Reflections with Acetate

I have been asked by a few people how to create a reflection using acetate. I am in no way claiming to be an expert, the " how to" I have created below is only the 2nd time I have ever attempted this technique, and I am still in need of loads of practice myself!

It was the lovely Kate from the house of sugar that told me about this technique on Thursday when I popped through for a visit, so all credit goes to her! THANK YOU KATE!!!

so: Step one - stamp onto acetate:

Step 2: place the wet side down onto your card and rub over with your hand to transfer the image
Step 3: Stamp the image again so directly above the reflection you have created


and, finally colour!....I need a lot more practice at this part, I have tried to colour the reflection darker than the main image, also I have only used horizontal strokes and have gone out of the lines slightly to create a distorted look, as you would get with water....and this time I have rubbed a little stickles over the reflection.

I hope this has been easy enough to follow, the photo's are not brill, I had one hand on the crafting and the camera in the other hand...LOL!!!

Hugs to you all
